It is twelve minutes past one in the morning and I am wandering around convincing myself that it IS time to go to sleep. I am tired and I have had a long, busy day but the several pieces of dark chocolate that I devoured between 7 and 10 PM are working wonders at keeping me wired and awake. Coffee seems to have no affect on me any more but give me a chunk o' chocolate, especially dark chocolate and good bye sleep! I am well aware of this fact and yet like all the other STUPID things I continue to do . . .
But that's not the nutsy thing I sat down to write about. I have to tell you there have been many things flitting past my brain these past days and weeks but I have not taken the time to sit and write and so the thoughts have popped up in my tiny brain, rattled around for an hour or so and when I don't stop to put them on paper right then and there they ooze right out of my head never to reappear. A day or so later I'll remember I was going to write about something and it was REALLY GOOD but I'll be darned if I have a clue what it was. You realize of course that the reason I didn't sit down to write immediately was because I had something so vastly important that I just couldn't take the time to to jot my thoughts down. Such important matters these days usually include things like trying to find where I left my coffee cup from breakfast because I still had 2 sips of coffee left in it. Or perhaps I'm trying to find the TV clicker that I lost while watching something in bed last night. Tearing pages off my daily desk calendar ranks very high on my MUST DO list. In fact sitting here right now I'm beginning to break out in hives each time I glance to my right and see that I am still on April 14th ! Good God!!! I haven't torn off the pages in over 10 days. Not only do I have to tear off all those pages but I have to now sit down and READ all the jokes and quips on each page !!! That's all sorts of time taken from my day ! THE HORROR !! Where will I find the time ??????
Well, Before I freak out and end up in a state of total break down let me make note of the crazy thing I realized before I began this blog this morning. Tonight when I came out of the shower the temperature in my condo was very comfortable even though I had turned off the AC earlier in the evening and had opened the sliding door and bedroom window. I was trying to decided if I needed to put the AC back on or if it would stay cooler tonight so I decided to check the weather app on my phone. Palm Beach Gardens temperature was 67 degrees. Very comfortable considering it was almost up to 90 early this afternoon. Sixty Seven feels wonderful ! Door and window are staying open ! Then I decided to see how all my family and friends were doing out there this evening. HERE'S WHERE IT GETS CRAZY !! Almost everyone I know is experiencing temperatures in the 50's. That doesn't seem all that strange except I am talking about folks from Alaska to Maine. Ohio, Maryland, Georgia, Alaska, New York and Maine all have nearly the same temperature tonight. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE ???? How can all those places ALL be with in 10 to 15 degrees of Florida ????? That is just freaky weird !!! I just had to stop and write about this.
