I found myself in a conundrum on the bus this week. The guy next to me fell asleep AND was in that moment where he made the movement in that deep sleep, to lean to his right. I was on his right. Um? I don’t know you, you are not going to lay your head on me.
I moved my left arm in a chicken dance kind of movement to try and wake him. It worked.
I saw owners with their dog earlier today. It was dressed. Seriously. It was wearing a sweater and shoes.
It’s very cold out so I understand the dog may need warmth, just like us. But on the flip side, it’s a dog, and dogs have fur coats. Also I realize that there’s ice on the ground so it may be slippery and the shoes may offer grip. I also seem to remember a dog being electrocuted in the city a few years back because of ice and a manhole cover. Or the salt and the manhole cover. In any case, if it is for safety’s sake, forgive me.
However, two things to note:
1 – Dogs have been walking for years in the ice and snow without shoes. Will this catch on?
2 – The pink shoes matched the pink sweater.
Loving this. So when the mood hits I can write and write and write and then I have posts that I can schedule ahead of time. Of course, if I have something timely, I can post again the same day OR I can just edit the scheduled time and date of the previously scheduled blog. Fantastic!
I will be at my cousin’s wedding this weekend. If this post does not get pre-empted, I have scheduled it to post at 7p EST on Saturday. That’s just about the time that I hope to be ordering my first cocktail at the reception. See, not only do I get to pick the day, but the time too!
Cheers!
A former colleague posted this link on Facebook. I have to share because it is freaking hilarious.
This guy, Lawrence, pledges to watch Julie and Julia every day for one year and blog about it, yes, kind of like Julia did with cooking and her blog in the movie. Yes, silly premise. I didn’t time it but I am pretty sure I was on his blog for…um…longer than I thought.
Just for the record, I actually enjoyed Julie and Julia. I don’t think you have see the movie to find this blog funny, but what do I know?
In one of his entries, Lawrence mentions that the Huffington Post was responsible for driving traffic to his site. So of course I Googled it because I wanted to see what they said, and I found out that it was mentioned in an article called, 7 Sites You Should Be Wasting Time On Right Now. Out of the 7, I only wasted time with Lawrence (and briefly with the Blues Maker) so far, and I think you should too. Here’s the link to the HP article for your reference.
And while we’re on the subject of links that help you waste time – here’s another one of my favorites.
