My friend Ryan introduced me to the term Honey-do list. It is a collection of tasks a spouse assigns their significant other when that other is supposed to be on vacation. My Honey-do list stretches off into the distance like the yellow brick road. Some of those do’s are self-directed like the garage. On the other hand, the complaints about that space are so visceral that something needs to be done regardless of who initiates the request. I find having these tasks to be a really calming thing. There is a simplicity in work that requires your hands more than your mind, and when it comes to summer I prefer to be a highly physical individual.
I suppose that is the end of this particular statement. Just like yesterday and several days over the last few weeks, I am finding little to say. Now the first words flooded into my head and I jotted them down quickly. The rest of the ten minutes has been largely spent dreaming up additional stuff to say. Perhaps a new strategy would be to go with that and stop worrying about the coherence of the posts and just let the words flow out of me. Some of the best writing is freeform. Some of my best writing is freeform.
Some Thoughts:
1. I sorta want to make a yellow brick road in Minecraft.
2. The blog is acting like it doesn’t want to let me in again. Perhaps it sees the shrinking size of these 10 minute posts as an indication that I’m cheating on it with some other blog. Perhaps it thinks I’m moonlighting at themaricopan.com.
