I had hoped not to have Lame Post Friday, after my week of illness and recovery. I was feeling much better earlier today. My stomach felt NOT sick. I did NOT have a headache. Oh, life was wonderful.
Of course it did NOT last. I didn’t even make it till lunch before I started to peter out. “I ran out of oopmh before I ran out of day,” I told a co-worker. Of course, that phenomenon often happens to the working stiff, convalescent or not. One perseveres and tries to get the work done regardless. I even did some writing during my lunch break, but it was not for the blog and it was definitely not finished. Still, it felt good to write.
Um, not that I have NOT been writing. I’ve been working on a letter to a friend. I’m often writing a letter to a friend or relative. At least it is putting words on paper. Still, it doesn’t help when I have to hit Publish on something or finally go a day without making a post (NEVER! NEVER! At least, NOT TODAY!). I have been fired with ambition to write lately but, alas, the ambition has not been accompanied by inspiration or even any ideas. So I write rambling letters or type in lame blog posts.
However, I say it again, one perseveres. At least I felt good for the morning. Perhaps tomorrow I will feel better for a longer period of time. Soon, dare I hope?, I will feel better for a whole day. At least I shall try to get my blog post written before I start feeling crappy again. As always, thank you for playing.

I’ve been sick and at work all this week. And it was my birthday yesterday. So I pulled a Lame Post Friday today too.
Happy belated birthday, Ben! See my comment to Cynthia below for a little smile. Maybe. Have a good weekend over your side of the pond.
Oh, how dreadful to be sick on your birthday! Still, it gives you something to be bitter about (oh, sorry, don’t mean to look on the bright side). Happy Birthday late and hope you feel better soon.
And you too. And by that I mean, a I hope you are really bitter that you are sick.
Indeed I am.
You’re a little better, and Ben’s a little bitter. Happy weekend, I hope, Cynthia. It’s supposed to be a whole lot nicer. Are you going to do the Utica audition of ‘Cuckoo’ with Steven and friends, I wonder? I got really behind reading when I was in D.C. for MDW Karen and I’s getaway Easter weekend and I’m trrrrrrrying to catch up.
We auditioned last night. I meant to write a blog post about it but, you know. I’m behind on my blog reading, too. I’m only up to reading the ones that are 500 words or less right now. Hope you enjoyed DC.
You did! While you were feeling ill, still. Good for you.
We did enjoy our trip, to the max. I’m in the middle of a photo/essay series about it. Probably too many words to make your list right now … 🙂
I even went out for a drink and snack afterward, but I was determined not to miss it. I’ll read your posts eventually; have them all in my email.
Way to keep the appointment for the audition and fun, my friend. Good job.
