The chick has turned me on to a couple of new blogs lately . . . and I've found a few through the regulars I read. I love it when a blog makes me laugh. Cookie Bitch is one of the funniest blogs I've read in a while. I think I even proposed marriage to her once. ESK thinks that my reading Cookie Bitch in the office may be what kills me off, finally. I laugh until I can't breathe.
Another new fave is Oh, The Joys. She is funny, smart, has a great writing style, and has made me cry. Making me cry is a good thing . . . since it's actually fairly hard to do.
And, a personal friend of The Super Bongo . . . who also has a damn fine writing style . . . honest and funny and sweet and sad and very often exactly to the point . . . is The Chick. There are quite a few more . . . like Death by Children.
The upshot is that all these really well written blogs has started making me re-examine my blog and my own writings. I'm thinking that perhaps I ought to put more effort into my blog . . . perhaps be a bit less off the cuff. Maybe have a bit more razzle dazzle.
The problem is . . . at odd times during the day, I'll have a deep thought I think I ought to blog about . . . like today when I was at the "spa" (passing as human takes incredible work from a team of "beauty" experts) and had this great, deep thought. And, now, in front of the key board, it's gone. I don't even have a clue what it might have been about . . . but it was great. Or, at the time I thought it was great. . . but there were heavy chemicals in use near my face too. sigh.

First of all, thanks. And if I ever get divorced, I'll give you a call, since I really like monkeys.
Second, the hardest thing is finding interesting things to blog about ALL THE TIME. I forget good ideas all the time - I wonder where they go, by the way. Is there a bar where all our good blog ideas go and hang out together and make fun of us for losing them?
I've tried carrying a small notebook with me, but most of my ideas come in the car, so I switched it with a tape recorder. That's helped a little.
Anyway, I think you are fabulous the way you are!
