Guilty Pleasures
Right now, as I write this, I am listening to the oldies country station out of Albuquerque (god bless the internets!) and right now they are playing Michael Martin Murphy’s “Wildfire.”
And I have the volume cranked.
Man, I love that song.
LOVE it.
I’m certain that my neighbors, however, don’t.
That song is *such* a guilty pleasure.
Yesterday in the Safeway, Huey Lewis’ “If This Is It” was playing and I sang along (much to The Good Man’s dismay) as I shopped. Yes, by god, I love me some Huey Lewis and the News.
Speaking of not being one ounce of cool and singing in the Safeway, do ya’ll ever just break out and dance in the frozen foods aisle when a good song comes on?
Because grocery shopping is SO freaking boring! And hey, there you are, bored out of your skull, fighting off old folks and screaming kids, trying to decide between Cheetos and Doritos, and a tune that you love comes on and you GOT to shake that thang! Got to!
I’m just saying.
By the by, this post isn’t going to be about anything. After a week where I’ve talked about such heavy items as my dad, myself, baseball and my infected toe, how do you wrap all that up in a nice, tight bow?
Hell, I don’t know, I’m asking.
I use this blog tracking service that helps measure, ping, and drive traffic. As part of that service, people can review your blog. I find the reviews pretty helpful, actually.
As a matter of fact, I’m currently looking for a new layout as I get terrible scores in that category.
One reviewer wrote that my blog is a “…somewhat random commentary on life…”
So at first I was sort of offended by being called random.
Then I had to realize, they are actually right. This blog is very random (reference: dad, me, baseball, infected toe).
So I decided to embrace it.
Especially on days (like, ahem, today) when I am at a total loss for a blog topic.
So instead of thoughtful, insightful, meaningful, you get random dancing in the supermarket aisle.
Did I mention I like pie?

There's nothing wrong with random. I consider it the opposite of predictable, which is something I'd never want to be.

Elise – ok, you make a solid point. You are right, predictable isn't any fun.
Viva la Random!
