Being Sad Turns You Into a Red Stick Person With No Hair


And it was simply too damn cold to go out and play. Which is unfortunate. The Super Bowl is always good for creating empty movie theaters and grocery stores. But, alas, we chose not to freeze our asses off to take advantage of it. We did, however, stumble across this —> Puppy Bowl VI Puppies…
1 – It’s time to get out of the shower, but instead of drying off you just stand there with the towel wrapped around you wishing you’d never gotten in in the first place. 2 – You wake up having to pee in the middle of the night and really consider just peeing the bed….
On Thursday, the company where I’m working had their big Christmas luncheon. I skipped it for some priceless alone time with a working computer and silence. Ah, what I can accomplish in forty minutes without distraction. Then- They came back. My current co-workers started flooding in and my time came to an end. Immediately, one…
I saw Aunt Mary on Sunday. I sat on the edge of her bed in the nursing home, next to the wheelchair she has to ride in, despite the fact she can hold up her own feet when someone is pushing it. Half the time, her head was bent down against her chest, her eyes…
I read this story sitting in a New York hotel room back in March, and meant to share it then, but I kept putting it off until it finally got lost in browser Neverland. The other day, I remembered it and found it again, and, finally, I get to share it. There is something exceptionally brave in…

I guess as long as you can live with the side effects, moping as a weight loss strategy? :o)
I’m so sorry to hear you’ve been moping. I know it doesn’t help, but I miss you tremendously and you are loved.
And by the way – unlike most people you don’t have to “attempt greatness.” You just simply are.
I think everyone mopes and self-doubts once and a while. If it doesn’t last too long I think it’s ok. I know I’m good at what I do. 97.68% of the time I’m great at my job. But then, there’s that 2.32% when I think I suck that I’m an idiot and I have no idea what I’m doing. Then I start thinking about what I can do not to suck. That’s when I realize that I’m already doing it so I come to the conclusion that I don’t actually suck.
I know you know you don’t suck and you got more greatness in you. But just in case here’s a little reminder:
– House Arrest parts 1 through 35
– Inamorata parts 1 through 36
– Temporary Girlfriend 1-20
– Conversations About a Redhead
– Between the Shadow and the Soul
– Extreme Sensitivity
And, of course “Bleeding through Kingdoms†which my 89-year-old grandmother is now reading and apparently enjoying a lot. She has to read with a magnifying glass so if she hasn’t given up yet it’s a very good sign.
You’re allowed a short period of moping but then you have to snap out of it. There are people depending on you and your everlasting greatness. :). And for all of you Joe six-packs out there doing a drinking game, ‘suck’.
Now if you’ll excuse me I have to go talk to a fictional San Francisco inspector. You think you’re the only crazy around here?
Love It! Miss you guys – xoxox
