Easing into Year III

The posts have been pretty sporadic recently and I suppose as a good Canadian I should apologize, but I won't. Sure I could spew out a dozen excuses, each valid and believable to a certain extent, but I won't do that either.

I've simply been procrastinating. There...I said it!

The industrious bastard half of me that's American has been lulled to sleep by the kindhearted yet slothful Canadian half and The Blob may be in serious trouble. We haven't even reached the hazy, lazy days of summer yet and already I'm in the doldrums.

Why only yesterday when I should have been writing I spent several hours at a new store that caters to the legions of sedentary people just like me. It was quite heavenly actually; the latest in video gaming tech gear, all manner of audio/visual gadgetry, aisle upon aisle of processed, heat'n'serve food, sofas, mattresses, bedding, a small robot (like a roomba) to help locate and retrieve the TV remote control (finally, God has answered one of my prayers!!), books on tape, shoes with no laces, clip-on ties in the latest styles, golf equipment....a veritable paradise for the man who wants to do not too much.

I liked the store so much that I spoke to the manager and they're now a sponsor. Take a look at the ad and then take a cab on over to see the real thing for yourself!

Fascinating article, Blob, really. But maybe you should just go back to procrastinating.

I will go back to procrastinating, just as soon as I finish watching this show about kelp. Promise.
Cool!!.... Did you know that kelp is actually a type of asparagus??

Sorry, I'd like to stay and chat but I really have to get back to my show.

That wasn't really a comeback, so I'm just going to assume you've forfeited.

You can pry that picture from my cold, dead fingers.

Wow, your fingers are cold and dead too??!!??

BTW the picture and cold, dead, finger stuff is just personal business between Maria C. and I. Nothing here for the rest of you to be concerned with...on your way now.
