Don't you just hate it when people who have nothing to say talk anyway?

I do. It used to be a pet peeve of mine. I have mellowed on the subject but it still annoys me. Really, if you have nothing to say, zip it. People who talk and talk and talk and then insist on talking some more without anything to say should stuff their mouths with bubble gum, peanut butter and gravel and leave me out of it!

I find over this past week that I have very little to say. I have a lot of minor bitty things to say and that's all. I also have a ton of things brewing but nothing flushed out and completed. Additionally, I have a healthy and respectful fear of the blog curse, wherein while things may be going well in your little world, within mere seconds of clicking 'publish post' your entire life falls apart and blows up as shrapnel that doesn't even hit the people who deserve it (yeah, you, jackass across the street).

Today I am featuring reruns. Just for fun, a couple of posts from the olden days. Here they are.
