Love, Hate and Stupidity

When I was reading some posts on X (Twitter) recently, someone asked, “If you could do away with one thing in the world, what would it be?”

Michael Crichton-Notable Quotes

I bypassed it, and then thought about it off and on the rest of the day. I’m still not sure. I thought, “Stupidity,” but then I wondered, ‘who would be the judge?’ I would certainly be thought stupid by some others, and so would be signing my own erasure.

Then I thought, “Hate,” but then I thought, “I” hate people who hate and do what I consider awful things, but it MAY depend on what is being done and why.

Then I considered, “apathy,” but we certainly have more than enough people jumping up and saying things they have to later try to take back or doing things that hurt others and can never be made right.

I’m still thinking. What would YOU do away with?

Stupidity

I was up in the middle of the night – as old people are – and caught my little toe on the corner of the bed on the way back. “This Little Piggy cried, wee, wee wee!” while I said some rather harsh things not suitable for print. I will soak it later, but in the meantime am wearing slippers instead of my regular tennis shoes and hobbling around rather dramatically. My sweet husband is calling me “Chester” from the old ‘Gunsmoke’ TV show we loved years ago.

I feel stupid. I KNOW the bed is there. I KNOW we made the bed from solid wood and that my toe is no match for it. I’ve been getting up in the middle of the night and getting back to bed without problems for many years. Why last night was different is anyone’s guess.

It’s hurting enough that I will remember to give the bed corner a WIDE BERTH for many years to come…

Stupidity – Take 1

Still Paying the Price

I told you that I sliced my finger instead of the roast beef several days ago. It’s been a challenge trying not to get my bandage wet while cooking, cleaning, washing my hair, showering, etc., so I’m moving (and typing) a bit more slowly than usual. I think it’s healing fine. I think I was right on the borderline for needing stitches, so I’m grateful I could bandage it carefully and protect it from further irritation with vet wrap.

I’ll be very glad when I get to what passes for normal. I’m just using band-aids now, so it doesn’t look as dramatic as it did. This episode is like locking your keys in your car. By the time you get the problem solved, it was so unpleasant that you don’t do it again for another 20 years or so…
