I was thinking in the shower this morning about what to make for the homemade giveaway for:
YankeeGirl
Rebecca
LadyStyx (your caveats are acceptable) and
Tori Z (your caveats are also acceptable!)
...when I was visited by the Creative Moose and figured out what I wanted to do.
I think I only have a certain amount of creative energy within me and when it runs out - its like a rechargeable battery - I have to wait until I get recharged before I'm ready to go again.
So while I'm busy in the lah-BORE-ah-tor-y, feverishly trying to bring my creations to life without the help of Marty Feldman*, I hope you might enjoy some reruns.
*Who wants any of that Abby... Abby Normal?! stuff anyway? Besides he's dead.
This is my 762-th blog entry - For reruns, I thought I'd pick some that I think are perhaps a little better than the rest. Some of these are recent - but some of them go back to my 'early' blogging days. In each case, I was in a mental state where I could do nothing else until I finished writing them.
I've rated them (S) - Serious; (SH) - Serious, but not so much; (H) - Hopefully humorous.
In which I own up to some shortcomings - (S)

In which a collection of old wooden boat pictures and a late night chat with some one that wasn't feeling their sunniest evokes some pondering - (S)
Wednesday, July 1, 2009 - When Friends Struggle
My first head over heels crush and how it didn't work out. Don't worry, I'm over it (finally, sort of...) - (SH)

In which I try to take a blind person with me on a virtual walk - (S)

Sunday, November 16, 2008 - Confessions of a Tree Hugger
And possibly my absolute favorite - the entry that started the orange traffic cone madness - I remember running home after a walk to download the pictures and hammering away at the keyboard until my fingers went numb - (H)
Tuesday, January 8, 2008 - The Scary Real World
There are some other entries to which I would admit a certain fondness. I added a new category for those called 'Personal Favorite'. However I hope none of you ever get bored enough to actually go there though - I might have to send the men in the white coats over to collect you.
I'll be back in a bit. Enjoy these last days of summer.
