Today I'm pondering deep philosophical questions such as: did the Gruffalo always exist and the Mouse was just ignorant of the truth, or did the Mouse summon the Gruffalo into existence by the very process of imagining such a creature?

Day #324 Black Friday
I’m having my own version of Black Friday where nothing is on offer on my blog. Brain has checked out for the weekend.
Day #323 Bereft**
I seem to be cursed with having extremely literary friends. I know several who have written books at this stage. Some are self-published, some are gaining steam in the traditional publishing world. Some are in the process of writing or shopping agents. I don’t mean this in a dismissive way of “oh everyone is writing…
Day #322 Visual interlude
I’m finding myself fatigued from trying to be profound nearly every evening in my writing and I still have some 40+ days left of this self-imposed task. This evening, however, I did begin writing something that was flowing well until I realised the topic I chose needs more time than I can devote to it…
Day #319 Moss
“Dude, you have moss growing on your car. Why do you have moss growing on your car?” The Mister scowled at my laughter as he pulled at some blades of grass sticking out of the windshield wiper well. A clump of wet, green-lined sod came out. “It grows on the roof of our apartment building and…
Day #311 Not In Service
I’m out tonight trying to recall what the whole going out business is like. I think this is my first night wearing eyeshadow in about a year. Regular blog service will resume tomorrow.

Day #292 Sugary nostalgia
Sometimes you just need something sweet, and sugary, and warm, and cinnamonny, with some tea and a slice of nostalgia. Thankfully I had the opportunity to partake in these seasonal treats with my tea. Really hit the October sweet spot. Emphasis on the sweet. I did have a more exciting post planned for today, involving Sunday’s…
Day #289 Whiskey
Today’s posht is brougght to you by whishkey. Specifically, whiskey cocktails. We had a Friday night work thingy. A shindig. Hootenanny? … Wait. Where do the words shindig and hootenanny even come from? I mean, do shins get dug, and hoots nannied? Or does the nanny hoot? I mean, those are some pretty weird words…
Day #275 Blog Leap Day
I was scrolling through looking for a particular post the other day when I came across something on my own blog that absolutely horrified me. I posted TWO posts numbered #176 on two consecutive days. Oh. My. God. I’m a day ahead. Wait, no. I’m a day behind. Wait, no. I’m…. aaaaaaarrrrrrgh!!!!!!! *breathe in* *breathe…
