August and everything after
Monday, August 31, 2009
I think it's obvious by now that I'll never get into the habit of blogging here regularly. Even one measly post per month is proving to be a challenge. I actually came up a few ideas for blog posts this month, which, for various reasons, never came to fruition. Here are the post ideas that I still can recall:
* A diatribe on how silly it is that kids just don't walk to school anymore. Especially in my hometown, which doesn't provide busing since the furthest any kid would have to travel is maybe 1/2 a mile. I abandoned this one mostly because I couldn't figure out a way to write it without sounding like a crotchety old biddy ("Doggone kids! Why back in my day....") but also because I was recently reminded of some valid reasons why parents wouldn't want their kids walking around unsupervised in my hometown.
* A preview of all of the great remastered Beatles music and the Beatles Rock Band game being released on 9/09/09, along with some fond memories of first hearing the original LPs and CDs back in the mid-80s. I guess there's still time left to write this one, but I'm not counting on it. The way things are going, I probably won't even break open the packaging on these new goodies until Thanksgiving.
* Some yammering about how we all need to take responsibility for the choices we make, and life's too short to be miserable all the time, and stuff along those lines. I'm sure I'll revisit the topic when I'm feeling especially philosophical.
* Another diatribe, this time about how ridiculous it is that New Jerseyans STILL aren't allowed to pump their own gas. I mean, seriously.
* An elaborate and exhaustive review of a variety of British chocolate bars. I was all set to go on this one, but unfortunately the test samples seem to have mysteriously disappeared.
Oh well. See ya next month!
