To take that EFFING water kettle that is howling right now and throw it out the window!
(there, I did it)
I was making the rounds through Google Reader because I can’ t miss a word of what you are all writing. I put water on to boil and quickly got lost in your posts. The damn thing woke up everyone in the house! It has the most annoying sound, more like the feeble and pathetic wail of a dying antelope as it is being eaten by a lion.
Luckily my tea wasn’t ready because it would have been squirting out of my nose as I was laughing so hard at The Real Dan’s post about American football and Lyssa’s take on Sea Monkeys and Deb’s offering of her dog to the highest bidder (this got me thinking about doing the same with Satana, my youngest baby goat. By the way, Deb, your basement looks like my house does right now…and I don’t have dogs!).
Jodi, the one blogger that always makes me work for my reward of reading her posts, because with her I need to chew on the words and let them crawl into my skin. A perfect example.
Then there is Terri, who is quite contrary to absolutely no one. Skip her posts for a day and I miss out on the ruminations of a charming woman as she pieces together her journey through life. How lucky are we that she shares her words with us!
There are about 30 others that I can’t live without. Here is a small sampling of their latest posts:
Chuck at D is for Dads
Why Paisley? (BRACE YOURSELF!)
Loz from Midlife - A Journey
Then I quickly move on to some Liberal and Skeptic rants. I wish I had their knowledge and their courage to write so prolifically about topics that mean something to me.
When you are done here, look over to the right and continue with the rest of my blogroll. All these people are in my daily Google Reader. Reading your words are one of the only rituals I have in my life. Thank you
By the way, I really did throw out the kettle!
