Monkling’s Blog

Today has been a fairly boring day. I have no stories. Not even from my hairdresser, which is unusual. And why do they call them ‘hairdressers’ anyway? They don’t dress your hair. Or is that a long outdated term and I am now dating myself here? Ah, well, anyone reading this blog for any length of time knows I’m 50, anyway.

Getting back to my non-story post, so it’s been an extremely uneventful day in Monklingland. It’s cold and dreary & drizzly out and all I’ve accomplished all day was finally getting rid of my gray, catching up with a friend with a phone call this afternoon and messing around with webmaster work.

What’s really sad is I have a to-do list. It is sitting right here next to me, quietly waiting for me to cross things off. It turns out that my list isn’t really a to-do list. It’s a “Let’s Ignore This Stuff” list. Why do I bother writing it if I’m ignoring it? Because I prefer to ignore work that I have to do rather than forgetting to do it. Given the choice, I’d rather be lazy than forgetful. I figure it this way: laziness is just a character flaw. Forgetfulness may mean there are brain cells just dying off left and right. You can see the sparkling logic is this train of thought, can’t you?

One last thing before I go - Jenn says today is compliment day. In honor of that, I want to compliment my faithful readers. You’re the reason I continue to blog every single day, the reason I strive to be funny, you give my life meaning. Without you, I would just be here talking to myself and then the men in the nice white suits would come to take me away. You are the few, the faithful, the great Monkling Blog Readers! (that great is referring to you, not the blog)
