Ladies Night Out: Someone Call a Doctor

I haven’t had a best friend since I was 16.  I’ve never had a ladies night out.  I told my neighbor (and now my BFF4EVS) this a few weeks ago, so she graciously took me under her wing and insisted that we go out last night.  (I declined, but then she and my husband cohorted behind my back and planned it anyway, so I had to go.)

She was asking me what I intended to do with a particularly sticky situation that I was facing. After a few minutes of hearing her opinion on my predicament– complete with her advice about the choice I ought to make– I replied with: “My life is no longer as easy as making the right decision.

The Day My Blog Died

Okay, here’s some irony for you.  I stopped blogging daily about a month ago.  I was finding that I could come on WordPress, spend hours here, generate some mundane writing, and forget that the towels that I had to wash three times (because I kept forgetting to dry them and they kept getting mildewy) were now dry and waiting to be folded.  Then I would wonder what I had done all day and I would feel bad about myself.  I would blame this on blogging.  So I gave up post-a-day and traded down to post-a-week, feeling that a post per week was totally doable.  My posts would be brilliant and engaging.  My readers would blindly follow me and then tell their friends.  My numbers would sky-rocket and then Freshly Pressed would come sniffing around these parts and before long you would see:
