Positively Awesome Blog

Big D wants me to be more positive in my blog entries. He often suggests topics---I find this irritating which is not positive. I don't write this because I have any intention of anyone ever reading it. In fact, I never even told anyone I was writing a blog. I started my blog because I wanted a way to hold myself accountable to journaling and to write about topics that interest me and perhaps participate in a discussion or two. I was not trying to win respect or praise or be popular. But Big D thinks someone we know might read it (never mind he sent out the link to his friends not me) and get the wrong idea. Hmm? Truth be told I like my blog and it's kind of like me---a little distant, true to my friends, non-committal, and pretty mundane. I am so positive about that.

Swept Away

Yeah it's been awhile and I fully acknowledge that I suck so there you have it. In other news, yesterday I spent about two hours in traffic, I am seeing my new doctor tomorrow for my ongoing stomach/allergies/female issues mystery illness, a group in my neighborhood is banding together to fight a cell phone tower placement on top of a blighted building--yes, the city is financially rewarding a known slumlord--gotta love LA, and my job is still tentative as they work out the "reorganization" of the office. Oh and I went to SF over the weekend to visit my brother and his wife and I had one of the best night's sleep I've had since well, the last time I was in San Fran.--not sure what it is about that city but I sleep really well there.

My Own Private Hollywood








This is far too addictive. I found it on one of my favorite Los Angeles blogs, Franklin Avenue who found it on Metroblogging Los Angeles or blogging.la as Franklin Avenue refers to it because they are way cooler than me. And so I am, as is my lot in life well behind the crowd. But I still must share and hope I entice you to waste a few minutes or an hour. You can check it out here http://www.glassgiant.com/hollywood_sign/

Did I Mention

that I am back to work? Which means that I am back to drinking heavily so daily blogging becomes a little more tricky. I apologize to my small but loyal group of readers. My brain is mush.
