how about that? you wait long enough, and friday gets here, every single week, it seems like.<\/p>\n
my day is done, not really a “work” day, but a few work activities, then some work-like activities were accomplished. i printed out my new column and took it around again.<\/p>\n
it\u2019s at Food Fantasies, Wienerdog, the Cardologist, and Recycled Records. Twice a month, from now on.<\/p>\n
the only place that people seem to be crazy to pick them up are at Food Fantasies. Or maybe there\u2019s one person who comes in there and takes them all, i don\u2019t know, all i know is it was quite satisfying that people had taken every last one.<\/p>\n
surely SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE can help me figure out how to get more exposure in the world.<\/p>\n
while i was in the process of marching around downtown taking them around, i saw phil walking down the street, and was excited to give him one, since i talk about him in it. and then, at the Wienerdog, there was richard norton smith himself! i should have said, “hi, my name is grace smith, we\u2019re probably related, aren\u2019t we?” (because all smiths surely must be related somehow although my last name should actually rightfully be swenson, not smith at all, but there you are). <\/p>\n
anyway, i just tried to smile in a very frienly way at him, and i introduced myself and gave him a flyer, which he folded up and i hope didn\u2019t promptly throw away. he didn\u2019t throw it away in front of me, which was something. i told him that i\u2019m a friend of phil\u2019s, which i\u2019d assume would mean SOMETHING to the man, but on the other hand probably everbody in town is claiming to be a friend of phil\u2019s. and besides, i hear that the media are swooping down on the library from points all over the globe, so he\u2019s a very busy man, no time for a little levity in his day.<\/p>\n
but on the other hand, he took time out for a (tasty, delicious and nutritious) Wienerdog, so why couldn\u2019t he take a few minutes to read something funny?<\/p>\n
i\u2019m about to take a little nap. yesterday i napped for all of 10 minutes, but it did a lot of good.<\/p>\n
i really don\u2019t nap all the time, even though it might appear that way. mostly, i\u2019m just hoping for a nap, or imagining that i\u2019ll have time for a nap, or debating about napping, worrying that it might interfere with my already sketchy sleep patterns. <\/p>\n
i DO have time to nap, though, certainly more time than most people. <\/p>\n
the only problem with napping when it\u2019s warm out is that i\u2019m inside when i should be OUTSIDE ENJOYING THE WEATHER because even though it\u2019s getting warm and the buds are appearing everywhere, it WILL be cold and wintry again eventually, there\u2019s nothing I can do about it.<\/p>\n
except spending lots of time next winter someplace warm, but i don\u2019t know if that\u2019s realistic at this time.<\/p>\n
but never say never. never EVER say never.<\/p>\n
maybe i sould get a hammock and string it up outside. would it be comfortable enough to sleep in? Aren\u2019t there several comic strip characters who are always sleeping in hammocks? Mr. Wilson from Dennis the Menace, and Dagwood Bumstead, and a couple of others? I wonder why there are never any females lolling around in hammocks in the funnies.<\/p>\n
my favorite comic, by the way, used to be “mutts,” because it was always amusing and the animals were so cute. But lately it just doesn\u2019t seem so funny anymore, which is a darn shame. i read the funnies every single day, but i\u2019m usually disappointed, but i won\u2019t give up hope.<\/p>\n
have i mentioned that i\u2019m a moronic optimist? more and more every day.<\/p>\n
i\u2019d like to say more right now, but the nap is calling me.<\/p>\n
ok then,<\/p>\n
grace who doesn\u2019t sleep ALL the time, and wouldn\u2019t if i could because then i\u2019d miss everything else.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
