BOR-ING
No wonder there are so many stupid people in the world — I’ve spent most of today watching cable television, and I feel stupider already!
I’m tired of surfing websites, since I keep gravitating to MRI images, ACL repair and reconstruction descriptions and pre- and post-op knee care. None of which is remotely useful to me, except as a means to reaching “information overload’ before I’ve even met the specialist Monday afternoon.
That, and it hurts like a mother (odd idiom — perhaps a reference to childbirth?) to sit at my computer desk for too long. And I’ve already had two near-spills due to my !(@#*! knee deciding not to support my weight at crucial moments… like walking down the stairs (isn’t that how this all started?) or filling up my bird feeders outside.
I’m supporting a flock of 30+ goldfinches, a half dozen or so mourning doves, a few white-winged doves, two warring Northern mockingbirds and the usual house sparrow and house finch congregation. Oh, and an occasional tufted titmouse and black-capped chickadee. So, I’ll be damned if my knee keeps me from ensuring the feeders are stocked!
Back to watching more trash television. I may have to redesign and rename the blog if I watch too much more of it. Who knew there were so many house/apartment/body/life makeover shows on now… and don’t get me started about the “banality” shows; oh, sorry, I really meant “reality”. Really, I did. Right…
