Where would we be without googling? I’m not sure, but lately I’ve been noticing questions on Twitter that start with “Without googling,” like this one:
Therefore, I decided to ask questions beginning with “Without googling,” too.
Without googling, I know that many people on Twitter are smart, funny, and otherwise awesome.
Without googling, I captured all of these images:
.
Without googling, I can’t find the holidays for each day.
Without googling, what song am I going to include in today’s blog post?
Without googling, who is very grateful for all those who help her create this daily blog?
Because there’s been so much bad news everywhere, I decided to ask people yesterday if there had been any good news lately.
It doesn’t hurt to ask, even though I didn’t know what the answers would be. And while many people have responded “no” and “not really,” there’s been a lot of good news, too.
Knowing about good news gives me some hope about the future, which I definitely need these days.
Is there any good news in my latest images?
The good news is that there are lots of great food trucks out there.
Here’s what I find when I search YouTube for “any good news lately?”
Any good news lately where you are?
Thanks to all who help me focus more on the good news, including YOU.
I will now overcome my inertia to say that “Bedazzled” is still a great song without the inertia line and to express my appreciation to all who help me create this daily blog, including YOU.
Today’s blog title is brought to you by The Daily Bitch Calendar.
I’m smiling at that calendar now. Is that wrong?
As a therapist, I’ve heard many people ask the question “What’s wrong with me?” Often, I respond like this:
“What’s wrong with you? Nothing. And that’s the wrong question.”
Yesterday, I was feeling like something was wrong with me, as I took in so much of what was wrong with the world. I started focusing on the wrong in me and in others, including my husband Michael. After a rough day when so many things went wrong, we were sitting in silence at the dinner table. I didn’t want to say the wrong thing and make anything more wrong between us.
Finally. I said, “Michael?” He replied, “Yes, Ann?” And then I said something I used to think was wrong for a humble person to say:
“I’m awesome.”
Michael laughed and agreed and suddenly what was wrong was right again.
What’s wrong or right with my other images for today?
What’s wrong with you if you feel like goofing off on National Goof Off Day? Nothing.
Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for “what’s wrong with you.”
What’s wrong with expressing gratitude to all who help me blog every day, including you?
Joan, our newish shelter cat, wants to know a lot, because she is a very curious kitty. She is not alone: I am very curious, too.
Yesterday, I posted this question on Twitter, claiming that Joan wants to know.
Joan wants to know why I chose to include her in that question. Good question, Joan! I know that if I do include Joan, I’m likely to love the responses even more.
Joan wants to know what you think about the images in today’s blog.
Joan wants to know if you are going to be celebrating National French Toast Day and/or Chanukah.
This is what I find when I search YouTube for “Joan wants to know.”
How many ways might you celebrate this precious day?
How many people would see a show with trained rescue cats and how many people will watch this video I took last night of the Amazing Acro-cats performing in the same theater where my son Aaron played John Wilkes Booth in a performance of Sondheim’s “Assassins”?
How many people were wearing masks in the audience? All of them.
How many comments will I get on this blog post?
How many times have I expressed gratitude for you in this blog? Thousands and thousands of times.
Meet all my son’s new teachers, at his high school, which is such a friggin’ labyrinth with so many stairs and confusing room numbers that I’ll probably wonder, “Where am I??” several times.
Ask directions, at my son’s school, from people who will help me get to all the right classrooms, on time.
