It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are. ~ e.e. cummings

Ooooooooooooh! I love what ee cummings said there. Yes, it takes courage to grow up, even more courage to write about it and let the world know what kind of a kook you are. Like me.

Here's an interesting unique intriguing meme I found at Karen's blog this evening as I was scrolling down her page. I've been trying to fit some visiting in this weekend, and trying to send emails off to everyone who gave me so much bloggy love on Wednesday. Since I woke up at 12:30 am and finally gave up and got up a little after 1 am, I have made a good dent in my Inbox. If I somehow missed you, I do apologize. Anyone who's been around here for a while knows I seem to have a love/hate relationship with Blogger as far as getting my comment notifications sent to my email account. Drives me nuts but, hey, that's technology for you! Perish the thought the world's computer systems ever die and we have to go back to doing things with pen and paper. I am so out-of-touch with my handwritten signature any more that when I actually write a check or address an envelope my hand looks weird to me as I'm writing the letters. But then I'm a little bit of an oddball anyway. So, what's new.

Oy.

I need to get back on track but please bear with me. I spent something like 7 hours working on my income taxes today and I have been up 19 hours so far so I'm getting a little punchy. I must report we're getting something around $3600 back, I think it is. I'm so noodle-brained at the moment I can't even remember. So, what's new.

Anyway.

This meme I started telling you about is called "Picture This". What you do is go to your My Pictures file, open the first folder, count over to the 10th picture, publish it, and write a story about it. Hmmmmmmmm. Well, I actually keep my photos...real photos...in My Documents. I keep my images that I use to illustrate my blog posts in My Pictures. So what do you get from me this evening? These cute little kitty cats. I'm not even sure why I chose them originally. They've been hanging around in My Pictures for quite a while now. I am totally left-handed. I do all kinds of things backwards from the right-handed world. Thinking rates right up there at the top of the list. Left speak?! Oh my...wait 'til you have a face-to-face conversation with me. "Would you put the ketchup in the dryer for me, please?" I don't know how my family has survived living with me...I am a very disturbed person.

So...I have no real story. Sorry. But I thought the cats were cute.
