Because I Am Obviously Not Doing It For You…



Once again, I am so sorry I am so boring. Seriously, I took another chunk of time off last week (only 23 more hours left to use up!) and I literally did nothing (well, I ate. And drank. But that is all I seem to do lately anyway). So I’m thinking, if I cannot entertain you, perhaps someone else can. One of the earliest posts on this blog was about other blogs I read. I’ve since dropped one of those, thankfully, because it was about a friend’s husband’s battles with cancer and he is now cancer-free (yay!), but I have added some more:

Nigel (such an English name! Really, I have never met an American Nigel) was my first professional editor, while I was still in high school and he worked on the local evening newspaper. I still cringe when I think of the silly school-girl crush I had on him but thankfully he has forgiven me my youthful  infatuation, and we have become friends over the years and the continents.


Wendy and I have a lot in common, not the least of which is our late mutual friend Adam, whom we both befriended back in our Boulder days. Unfortunately, it took Adam’s suicide a few years ago to bring us closer together and we finally met for the first time last year when she visited Las Vegas.

Patty is my friend for many, many reasons, one being that she is the ONLY person I know who watches more television than I do. She watches so much, in fact, she has a blog about it.

  1. I knew a boy in 6th grade, I believe he was in 9th, Nigel Aldridge (talk about English!), who liked me, who was, in fact, American.

  2. Those other blogs make me embarrassed to have a blog. They are so interesting and funny! But I am what I am, and what I am is a TV nerd. :-)

  3. But Patty, you embrace your nerdiness so passionately, you should never be embarrassed by it. Besides, I need there to be someone out there who watches more TV than I do!
