I Think, Therefore I Ham

A little song, a little dance
A little seltzer in your pants.
–The late Chuckles the Clown

I was just nominated for my first blogging award! NancyBea has picked me as a “Thinking Blogger.” I will confess, there are times when I really do think as I write this blog. But not
always. My other writing is a combination of material fresh from the heart, channeled through my mind, like wine set to age in an oaken barrel. (That’s not to say I am wooden-headed.) But my blog is mostly blood-fed, just from the heart and not censored or edited very much. I write it for me, and I hope, for you. I hope it helps, rather than hurts. I am a true believer in Tikkun Olam, a Jewish phrase for “Healing the World.” It is up to every single person to find their own special, unique way that they make things a little better, rather than worse. Being a Lazy Libra, I do what comes easiest: sit on my ass and write stuff that is honest, true, and hopefully funny.

I would nominate Neddy Sweets’ Blog. He is one of the biggest thinkers I know. Intellectual sparring is our foreplay. Or one form, anyway. Ah, the life of the mind…

For the love of all things holy and good, please don’t ever again refer me to your husband’s blog my stating that it is “Neddy Sweets’ Blog.”

F*ing gag!

Is that the actual title? What? No?! What?

Hey … I expected something about romantic relationships, confectionary recipes, or maybe even a journal about a playuh lifestyle.

In all seriousness, I read his blog. Like Pete’s blog, I only understand the ones that don’t delve into those techno-babble discussions about Ruby, Rails, Nail, Pails, whatever.

All in all, you two are far too good for each other. You’re the couple we all love to hate.

Good for you. Don’t change a thing.

“Who can turn the world on with a smile? Well, it’s you, babe, and you should know it!” I love that you used a reference to the Mary Tyler Moore show as your opening quote! I second that vote! Mazel tov!
