The Problem with Blogging

The problem with blogging is that you have to think of something to post every single day, or nearly so. There's only so many pictures of my cat people want to see, and I probably exceeded that number some time back. So, I have a problem. Here are some other real-life annoyances. I'm sure you can relate. (By the way, I'm convinced that most of us handle the big problems well; it's the little things that drive us crazy!)
  • Discovering you have no wallet (cash, checks, credit/debit cards) after the cashier has rung up a cart full of groceries
  • Finishing the laundry and having one unmatched sock
  • Not finishing the laundry because the washing machine has quit... full of water and wet clothes
  • A rattle in the dashboard of the car
  • Plastic, "clam-shell" packaging that cannot be opened without doing yourself bodily harm
  • February and March (the dead time between the end of football season and the beginning of baseball season)
  • Having a recipe half prepared only to find that you're missing a key ingredient
  • Taking an envelope that has to go out immediately to the mailbox and seeing the mailman halfway down the street... past your house
Have I missed a biggie?

The solution to the dead time in February and March is to watch hockey.

In my house, it would someone who is poopy right when you are trying to leave the house.

Dave already took my thought. There is also college basketball (march madness) in March. or NBA. fun fun.

Emily -- you shouldn't talk about Dave's problems like that. ;)
