Do you know
what Mark Twain once said about blogging?
NOTHING!
NOTHING, YOU MORON. MARK TWAIN DIED IN 1910, AT LEAST FIVE YEARS BEFORE
BLOGGING WAS EVEN INVENTED. JUST HOW STUPID ARE YOU?
Wait, I
apologize. I’ve been going through a rough patch and I've let it affect me in
less than positive ways. Part of it is just me feeling sorry for myself, and
part of me is upset because so many of what I thought were loyal readers of
JSGF didn't even bother to check up on me, even though I might have gotten
seriously injured in a log-rolling accident or something. AND WHY IS
LOG-ROLLING SO MUCH HARDER THAN IT LOOKS ON THE LUMBERJACK OLYMPICS? IT'S JUST
RUNNING ON A FREAKIN' LOG FLOATING IN WATER!
I'm sorry.
It's not you... it's me. I've packed on some pounds and have found myself right
back where I was when I began this site oh-so long ago.
As I was
staring up at the eclipse the other day, I had few revelations:
1. Maybe I can
get my sh*t together and get on the path to a better, healthier me.
2. Maybe I can
use this experience to teach myself a lesson in humility, perseverance and determination.
3. Maybe I
should have spent the two bucks on those special eye-protecting glasses.
No promises,
but I'm going to do what I can to turn things around.
As Mark Twain
once said, “The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want,
drink what you don't like, and do what you'd rather not."
Time to get
doing what I'd rather not.
You are a very funny writer. I love the Mark Twain reference, so true. I'm inching back to my highest weight as well. Ugh. Good luck to us.
