The fog is lifting… back to blogging?

June 9, 2022June 10, 2022 Writer of Words, etc

Yesterday I blogged a little, after a long absence. In my post, I talked a bit about writer’s block. I even mentioned, in passing, that the tarot cards might help me out, or bring clarity.

Instagram is now a hook-up site, and a dating app update

April 7, 2022April 7, 2022 Writer of Words, etc

I have to occupy my brain with some superficial stupidity so I thought I’d share some of said stupidity with you. You’re welcome.

I very rarely go into my DMs on Instagram, but occasionally I wander in there to see what’s going on.

This happened yesterday.

Look at all the men who popped up in recent days. I’m so lucky! 🙄

I know I’m being tracked by everyone, especially google. I see it in my search history when recommended topics appear on my feed.

Opinionated opinions

May 5, 2021May 5, 2021 Writer of Words, etc

I have many opinions today. I’m in a place today where I am not calm. Probably why I’m wasting the day away on social media. 🙄

Silly fun

April 24, 2021April 24, 2021 Writer of Words, etc

I wrote a crappy post yesterday which I revised seven times and then didn’t publish.

I wrote a much better, more introspective post today and…I’m not happy with it. Yet. Maybe I’ll revisit tomorrow.

So for today, here are a few silly snippets that made me smile and lol lately.

Age is just a number

April 1, 2021April 1, 2021 Writer of Words, etc

When I posted that picture of me in pig-tails, thanks to the teen girl and her hair-styling implements, a couple of people commented that I look young. Note: I am not young. No, really. I’m not young. (Also, what is young?) As most of you probably know I am a mom of teens. I suspect that you think of me as GenX. I am. I believe I have mentioned this a few times over the years as well. 🙂 I’ve been thinking about age a lot lately, which is partly influenced by this idiotic thing on twitter I came across … Continue reading Age is just a number

I came across this on social media this morning and I have to say it made me happy!! Who had ever heard of strawberry finches? Not me!

Stupidity

October 28, 2020November 15, 2020 Writer of Words, etc

Disclaimer: this post will rot your brain. 🥴

I went to twitter to poison my brain with stupidity to keep myself from bugging people or writing stupid shit no one wants to read. Thought I’d share with you. I’m nice like that.

You’re welcome. 😛

Sorry not sorry. 🙃

Superfluous choices

March 25, 2020March 25, 2020 Writer of Words, etc

First thing I did when this sequestered lock-down started was ditch the bra. I mean, who cares if I wear one or not? Continue reading “Superfluous choices”
