I shaved my head again on Sunday (I had been letting it grow for a while. I have pictures to prove it but I won't inflict them on you ... yet) and I started writing this (in my head) at that time. Now it's about a quarter past eleven on Thursday night, and I know you're wondering how that blogging daily thing is workin' out for me.
Many, many years ago, when she was still funny and had two names, Roseanne Barr told a joke about an agreement she had with her husband, Fang. (No wait, that was Phyllis Diller. She was always funny.) Anyway, Roseanne said they had an agreement. "He doesn't mention that I'm a tad overweight, and I don't mention that he has more hair in his ears than he does on his head."
It was funny.
Then.
'Tain't no mo'.
Before I shaved my head I felt compelled to shave my ears. I figure that probably sounds gross, and is TMI even for a blog. Unless I get a demand for more tales of ear-shaving old men I believe I'll let that subject die.
Okay, I just checked my blog stats, and my post from July 20 has my second highest number of page views. (That's only 41 btw.) After that it tapers off, with a little spike on Thanksgiving. I attribute that to the pictures. My highest number (45) is for the one titled "The Dog." I attribute that to the fact that everybody loves adorable pets on the Internet. (I attribute the decline in page views that followed to the fact that there was, in fact, no dog in the post.) Anyway, all of this leads me to conclude that I need to include pictures (preferably of adorable animals) as often as possible. So here's another that turned up in last week's search:
As I said above, I started typing this on Thursday night. I actually drifted off right after I typed "That's only 41" in the paragraph above. Now it's 8:29 PM on Friday, and I'm late posting again. But I'll have it out there by midnight.
Meanwhile I have 800 days until I can retire, and you kids get off my lawn.
