I think that poster is the funniest. I have never felt like that in the morning, but I do prefer to have my first cup of coffee before getting into deep conversation with my 16 year old about a television show he finds hysterical. I don't mind him sharing his happy moments with me, but when he wants to recite an entire episode of Frazier for the un-teenth time at 6:30 in the morning, I have to interrupt him, "Mommy needs her coffee first" I say with an apologetic glance. Hoping that after I've made my coffee, opened the newspaper and started reading the front page, he has meandered into another room. That may sound cruel or insensitive, but I prefer to think of it as survival. Survival of the family. Hey, it's been working so far. So if it ain't broke, who am I to fix it?
Which brings me to the subject of this post. A very special man in my life, who continues to remain nameless, and my eldest son, both agree that my blog has no meaning or consistency. I am paraphrasing here, and will be sure to be corrected by both men after they have read this post. My posts, they say, are funny, but one does not connect to the other. Blah, blah, blah I say to both of them. After all, whose blog is it anyway?
My blog is used to express my unabashed views and comments about what ever I want to discuss on any given day. Some days it's an open diary. Other days it's my notepad. Sometimes I just feel like writing nonsense. Other days I write with a particular purpose, or cause in mind. But, most of the time, it's a story, a fairytale, my pretend world where I go to express emotions I had no idea existed, but would love to feel them.
I sat down this afternoon with the intention of changing my blog. Correcting all the posts that had no significance or value to my "readers". After all, these are two men whom I respect and love. Then, I reconsidered. They are important issues. Who's to say what is important to me on any given day? I am. So to all of you who find this blog without, dare I say it, merit, I say this.
"It ain't broke, so I ain't gonna fix it!"
