Seeking a smile and some peace and joy

FREEING YOUR SERIOUS MIND ON A SILLY SUNDAY

<sarcasm alert>
Rumor has it that sometimes I don’t take things  seriously when writing these posts.  Really?  
<alert canceled>

Well sure...guilty.  Voltaire once quipped, “god is a comedian waiting fro.his audience to laugh.”  I’m not claiming divinity here or its opposite, however, I do think a good laugh never hurt anyone.  I’m not sure of this detail regarding the exact ages here, yet I know I’ve read that the average small child and or infant laughs  up to 400 times a day whereas the average. 40 year old only laughs 4 times a day.   I’m not going to  provide a laundry list of why this might  be though I do think we need to restore a balance here.  Oh and I am going to use a laundry list to start that task today.  So sit back and relax—and if you choose to just smile or laugh good work...it will always help in the process of seeking peace and joy.

The laundry List

So on Friday I had to visit the bank and do some other business that sort of required being dressed up a bit.  Having finished that I got home and wanted to. Get into some more comfortable clothes.  CAUTION: IF YOUY HAVE AN ACTIVE IMAGINATION AND HAVE BEEN DRINKING A LOT—THIS PART INCLUDES  PARTIAL NUDITY SO TRY NOT TO EMBARASS ME BY THINKING THAT WAY

 So I undo my belt and take off my pants so I can put on some sweats.  I notice that I have taken. Off pants but there is only one item of clothing on the floor Should it be called a pant?  I know  that a pant is heavy breathing and in my youth taking these off might have created heavy breathing...but that’s another thing altogether.  Now I pulled on my sweats- or sweat pants again only one item Now by the logic of how these  itemsI should have. Started to take off my shirts, but I only took off one item—a shirt—and had nothing on from the waist up.  I looked through my pile of things on my dresser and  picked out a fine choice black t-shirt.  I decided to  change my socks.  NBow I wished they were pants.  Not that I like to go without pants, however if socks were pants I’d only have to change one because  well pants are only one thing.  I think the dryer is trying to tell us something because single socks disappear from there  all the time.  
Okay I find some white socks in my drawer.  I’ve never seen this furniture  sketch out even  a stick figure so why  does it get that title?  

I move ahead to put on my shoes and this whole process that is full of  strange words in about finished.  Of course you know what they call this?  Yes they call it “dressing.”  Dressing?  Isn’t that what some folks put on salad?  Okay don’t picture me or anyone else pulling on sweats standing on a huge pile of mixed greens with  a little tomoato on the side.  
Anyway... I’ve been thinking... we make up new. Words. All the time.  Maybe we can work on these  clothing  words such a bit what do you think?

I ‘m. Thinking we don’t  need to get too complicated and think of words like. (Sp). Cummerbund, but  we need to do something to help future generations.  

Well enough is enough on this.  Tomorrow is Columbus Day—prepare for another  little rant and some more peace and joy


Smile
