1. Check recent photos for a good-enough post title.
Which of those photos might inspire a post title, for you?
2. Acknowledge a special event.
For example, today is my and my son Aaron’s first day home after an incredible vacation in Edinburgh, Scotland with our excellente relative Deborah. Plus, it’s my boyfriend Michael’s birthday.
3. Go with your first instinct.
Okay!
Before I end this well-enough-titled post, here’s a song inspired by one of my photos, above.
Everything IS awesome, sometimes.
Awesome and aptly titled thanks to Aaron, to Michael, to my ex-sister-in-law Deborah, to everybody else appearing in this excellently-titled post (mostly from the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2015), and to you — of course! — no matter what your title is.
Welcome back! Thank you for the vacation. I feel like I’ve been to the Fringe Festival and had cocoa with pink marsmallows by deep lakes.
I am back in the US, too, today. Sitting at the border on the 5:30 AM Amtrak bus, heading for the three day Gender Odyssey conference in Seattle where I hope to meet one of my favourite memoirists, Kate Bornstein. Plus,many other warm-hearted people.
I love knowing that we’re in the same country, Maureen!
My favorite movie — my favorite song. Makes my family cringe. But when you are down, stuck, lost, you can always sing: “Everything is Awesome! Everything is Cool When You’re Part of a Team!”
Everything is cool when you’re part of my team, Claudia!
I think I would choose – Fair Enough. I like that, it is good a title for a post. I am glad you are safely home. I hope Michael has a most excellent birthday day and you and Aaron are able to recover from your travels. I must now go earn my honest crust (go to work). No rest for the weary as my dear old Dad says.
You might not believe this, SD, but “No Rest for the Weary” was a post title I was considering this morning!!
No way?! How weird is that? Great minds think alike, or tired minds can’t think of anything else other than how tired they are.
I think that’s a Fair Enough assessment, SD.
Every one of those pictures inspires me. Now that I think about it “Everything Is Inspiring” would be a great title.
“Everything is inspiring” IS a great blog post title, Chris. Might you use that, some day?
I think I might. I certainly seem to find inspiration everywhere.
I find that very inspiring.
And that is what inspires others, Chris.
Honestly, I thought the title of this post would be “Oscar de la Renta”.
That means “Oscar is for rent”, did you know that? Oscar is NOT your grandson Samantha!
Puns are awesome, Maria!
Poking a Dead Frog sounds good enough me. But I won’t. It might be asleep. Still, it sounds good enough….
Welcome back, Ann!
Elouise
How wonderful to see you, Elouise. And thanks for the welcome and for your kindness towards that possibly alive frog.
Fair enough questions Ann. Everything looks awesome! xo
You look awesome! Xxoo
Welcome home ! I’d be inspired by the lost Nick Drake recording..another artist gone too soon.
Thank you for the warm welcome home, Van.
I’d like a title – Sir 🙂 I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I really think my latest post will make you laugh at least 3 times.
You were right about your latest post, Sir Alex!
Why thank you 🙂
Poking a dead frog offers potential
I wonder what would happen if you tried using it as a post title, Derrick.
I suppose I asked for that. Maybe something like this: http://derrickjknight.com/2014/03/29/a-rude-awakening/
I’m glad I asked!
I’m Home but the Aswum Humour and Ham Hock Croquettes Remain in Scotland
Nicely chosen, Mark.
Very carefully!
Very well-chosen comment, Robert!
Love #3. Go with the Gut.
I am so glad you go with your gut, David!
