Three Thoughts for Saturday 1/21/12

Posted by Mark on January 21, 2012 in 3 Thoughts | Short Link

Three weeks into 2012 and I wonder how people are doing with their New Year’s Delusions so far.
I was watching a TV show where one of the characters mother was driving him nuts. It struck me that the best part of my mother being gone is she can’t do that to me anymore. I immediately realized this is the worst part of her being gone.
It’s funny how listening to the songs of one artist can create an earworm out of a song by somebody else. Case in point, after listening to the new Alex Chilton re-issue (The “1970″ Album), I keep hearing The Replacements song, “Alex Chilton” percolating in my brain.

Have a great week and thanks for reading.

interesting thoughts. Your second thought stuck with me the most- this is what I always throw at my hubby or kids, "Just wait – when I'm gone, you'll wish I was here to bug you" ha ha! ah, yes, we moms/wives know how to use manipulative emotional ropes to tie up our loved ones .

The best and worst part of being gone… yes, yes, yes. Sometimes, in the silence, we even notice the absence of nagging and miss it more fondly than we ever thought we would. As far as delusions: I'm failing, frequently, often, gracefully and clumsily. Sometimes I think I have been sent to this country to learn just that.

As being a person who likes to drive others nuts (because I'm so damn funny), I wonder if they'll miss me asking them incessant questions on purpose and pretending I can't hear them…hmmmm
