I am updating my profile. It has deteriorated over the years as my face is full of wrinkles and growths. I also need a new About page. I am a little hazy about who I am and what I write. My posts are basically about nothing but not in an entertaining and brilliant way like a Seinfeld episode. Maybe I need some quirky friends. To mask a massive ego, I use a self-deprecating style. But I cannot use that term for fear of an autocorrect to self-defecating. And usage of the latter word always costs me followers. My poetry follows the Doggerel format of five syllables in lines two, three, and 24 except on Tuesday when six syllables are required. Line one is left blank out of respect for my Grandmother Lucille and lines four, five, and 23 are composed entirely of vowels. Lines 6, 7, and 22 rhyme and lines 7-21 are in a separate freestyle stanza inspired by good Dog Earl. I include photographs to support my work but do not know where they go after I hit the post button. I have Blogged daily since August 2016 because I never have writer’s block much to the dismay of my wife. I was nominated for Ivan’s Daily Impertinent Outrageous Trash (IDIOT) award in 2017 but could not accept because my site is award free except for Pulitzer and Noble prizes. I write much younger than my 73 years at basically the level of a high school Sophomore. My three children and five grandchildren are all more mature than me although just barely. I am comfortable in my own skin because it sags everywhere. I hope a grandchild can show me how to upload this to my About page.
“except for Pulitzer and Noble prizes” LOL. That’s funny. And your site is on its way to the Seinfeld level of brilliance, or at least being equal to Curb Your Enthusiasm sort of series. I love both shows. LOL.

Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm are two of my favorite shows, although Jerry Seinfeld is such a more likable character than Larry David.

You are right about being enough (or even too much) of that! But I cannot help myself. And I keep wandering down strange paths.

That’s the stuff fun blogs are made of.

Tongue in cheek is the best way to find success of the kind you’re (apparently) seeking. Seinfeld knew that. It’s admitting it that’s the hardest part.

Melanie, your comment triggered a flood of introspection that will likely spill into a Blog posting in a few days because I only feel peace when I expel my thoughts verbally or in writing. I have always been interested in success and I perceived my chronic tongue in cheek episodes as guilty pleasure detours slowing me down. But perhaps I should have just embraced them more fully.
