Potentially funny thoughts from a local comic
I have been thinking recently about originality – how can I be an original thought provoker, and not just a consumer of content? These thoughts have been motivated by a recent purge – I have been getting rid of possessions, and when I came upon a pile of my old journals, I wasn’t sure if…
I love New Year’s goals! I love the feeling of renewal, of letting go of the old and looking to the new. Here are a few of mine: I’ve had some vacation time during the holidays, and I’ve really had an opportunity to clean up my house! I have gotten rid of two carloads worth…
Hello, friends! A friendly recently posted the following question: “Do you have an inner monologue?” My response? “Not anymore!” These days, I listen to podcasts a lot of the time… For me to slow down, to hear that inner monologue, to think, to reflect, is very rare. Today, I made dinner quietly, without someone else’s…
Good morning, December! Ever since the election this year, I have been feeling much more positive about the world! A huge shift has occurred in the Matrix. Now my focus has shifted, and I have several goals for 2019. I am really enthusiastic about Citizens Climate Lobby (CCL): They have a bill that has reached…
I forgot to blog for several weeks — I had to be reminded that I even have a blog! I wanted to talk a bit about concentration. A friend, last night, said that she’s been having a hard time concentrating and thinking. I’ve had similar issues for several years. This is partially because I suffer from…
The last couple of years have been rough — the rantings and election of a mentally unsound dictator has unquestionably broken my heart. But in these past few years I’ve learned strength, and how to act normal in rough situations. I can rise above, and not let it affect me. Don’t get me wrong, when…
When people use the expression, “first-world problems,” I want to punch them in the face! If you go to the root of any so-called “first world problem,” you will find problems that go much, much deeper. We are facing some serious problems in our so-called first-world: Environmental issues Losing access to clean water Cops killing…
I was driving from Virginia to North Carolina yesterday, listening to the Y2K Country SiriusXM station. This station plays country music from 2000-2010, which is, in my opinion, the last decade of great country music. Country music has mutated quite a bit over the years, and it’s often hard to classify. It’s a little bit…
I hate the cliche, “I wear many hats,” because I don’t wear any hats. But I do wear many shoes, and when my shoes talk about me, they probably say that I have multiple personality disorder, aka dissociative identity disorder. My hiking shoes spend lots of time hiking in the mountains. They have the best…
I was talking with a man the other day, and he made a comment that greatly disturbed me: “all men are jerks and have bad intentions/bad thoughts. Every single one of them.” I took his words as a reflection about him, and not all men. I don’t make blanket statements about 100% of women, ever….
