Inaugural Poll

Five years after all of the other bloggers…I decided to put a poll on my page. It’s over on the right side of the page. (nudges her head toward the right) Here’s my question to you:

If offered the chance, would you be a clown in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade?

You’d be bussed up to the event, and given some instruction on how to be a ‘clown’ in advance. You wouldn’t be paid for it; however, you could bring one relative/friend to be in the parade with you (a sister who’s had a really sucky summer, perhaps?) and 2 more guests to go up with you but watch the parade from the sidelines.

***
I went to the gym and did 25 minutes straight on the elliptical machine. My legs are so dead that I have to drag myself across the floor by my elbows, which negates my plans to inflate the Bean I got on Black Friday and try it out.

    I answered “Np”. I would rather have Root Canal than be a clown. Clowns have always creeped me out, even as a youngster. I think it was some evil clown that did it for me.

    Every Minstrel has a bit of a clown in him.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

Well, that happened.
