Getting Riled up

The other reader here at B&B, Spockgirl (from Spockgirl Musings) sent me a picture. She had designed it based on some recent things going on here at the Ralphd00d Palace, and quite frankly, I think it is it pretty damn cute!

I think the beer in hand is the best part....

In her note to me, Spockgirl mentioned that she, like myself, is struggling on, trying to write something of the elusive 'substance'. I don't know why, but it got me a bit riled up. Which is good in the sense that it gives me something to write about today. So a good h/t to SG!

I know for quite some time, my drivel here is ... well, drivel. I suppose it is more of a journal or diary, than some money-driven, expert-advice, see my journalistic experience and professionalism - type blog. I don't write about one subject and all of its wonders and things. I don't reach a crowd of millions, because I am famous. I tweet, but few and far between, and I am sure no one that reads here follows my tweets and Facebook (well, FB I know some of you do).

I guess what I am leading up to is 'canned posts'. I know some other bloggers use them. Some more than others, and some are just good enough, you can't tell if they do use them or not, let alone when. I have not ever used one. Yes, I have put up posts that were from a file - like some old ones where I was "writing" more and put in some excerpt of a short story I was working on. I don't like canned posts. When I started this blog (wow, going on like 6 years at this address) it was to work on doing a daily post of some sort, and to exercise my writing skill(s). As you can see, my skills seemingly have not improved, but my griping has. I know some family members read here to find out how things are going with my family, and that's fine. I even refrain from bitching about yours just because I don't want to deal with your shit, too. In fact, on a side note, I have another blog I do that on, but it is in no way connected to this one, or to me in anyway you will find.

The rest of you that read here, well, it's down to one of two reasons I think. First, you are out searching for some weird kind of porn, or looking for some boob pics. I have been a bit lax about posting any of them of late (the boob pics). When the Reverend Mother reads here, some times I feel a bit guilty about posting them. Yeah I really do. There RM, you scored some points there. The rest of you, probably just read here to hear how bad I have it (bad compared to maybe your life). I wouldn't believe anyone reads my stuff tyo actually learn anything..... not that what I botch about is really learning anyways.

Well.... hell. I guess that's all my ramblin' on will get ya today.

Sometimes I say or do things that end up making me laugh. Sometimes I say or write something that deserves a facepalm. This was definitely a laughing one. Glad you got a kick out of it.

Why do any of us blog or read blogs? Hell if I know. I am amazed anyone bothers to read my drivel. I would never look in the medicine cabinet at someone else's house. My kids leave notes on the desk and I am never tempted to read them. I would never take on the life of a peeping Tom. But I read blogs.

Sometimes you amuse me. maybe that is enough?
