Thursday Thirteen #330

Better Late Than Never

1. Had I not written this Thursday Thirteen, it would have been the first Thursday Thirteen I'd missed in about 300 week, or over five years. That's a hot streak, right?

2. Why am I late? Can you believe I forgot it is Thursday?

3. Recently I have been forgetting a lot of things. I forgot to put the chicken salad in the refrigerator and stored it in the cabinet instead. I put food in the microwave and forgot to serve it. I think my brain wiring went cuckoo when I hit 50. *Added later* After I wrote this, I forgot to post it!

4. Apparently "go see a pain management specialist" is doctor speak for "I don't know what is wrong with you and it's not my problem, anyway."

5. I love you even though I don't really know you. It's sort of like the way I like watermelon on a hot Sunday afternoon.

6. From my writer's notebook, one of my favorite signs, seen long ago: Cash for God, any condition. I think that about sums it all up right there, doesn't it?

7. I learned this week that the English call kitty cats moggies.

8. My office needs a good cleaning out and I want to rearrange my desk. However, I am unable to move the furniture. It's that heavy precut crap that weighs a ton.

9. I feel like I am writing nonsense just to get to thirteen.

10. I read an article about not writing and realized that it defined my issues. My belief system is all screwed up. I believe stupid things and they keep me from working.

11. Do you believe the dead can hear your thoughts?

12. I have a license to laugh plastered on my wall above my computer screen. Really. It says, "This license entitles the bearer to perform random acts of spontaneous laughter."

13. I want to go back to school. If I could I would be a student forever.


There. Thirteen things. I don't know why this has been such a struggle the last two weeks!


Thursday Thirteen is played by lots of people; there is a list here. I've been playing for a while and this is my 330th time to do a list of 13 on a Thursday.
