Top of the morning! Try this: Thoughtful Tuesday turns
adverbs on their head. That would make a good headline. Change things up and
generate thoughtful looks. Replace
placeholder adverbs with new words that will cause people to think. You’ll be performing a literary public
service by expanding vocabulary and encouraging people to break out of the
“same old – same old” rut of word exhaustion.
Try replacing the word “basically” with “complexly”. How about “angularly” instead of
“actually”. We know “actuality” is in
the mind of the beholder. Nothing is
actually until we say it is.
Today is a green day. Pin a few dollar bills to your
sleeve. Clip them to your earrings; let
them dangle and sway as you move. This
corner of the world has been celebrating for two weekends. I should research the saint to see if he was
the inventor of the hops-based fermented liquid that has become the hallmark of
this time of year.
Hand it to the beer manufacturers; they’ve stumbled upon
something. Ingenious to link an
inebriating beverage with a holy man. Is
St. Patrick the patron saint of the brew master? They could do worse.
How are things in your ecosystem? I’m deciphering the latest five-day forecast
that was offered this morning (is it morning before the sun rises?). Another
storm system is moving in and if all the variables and factors occur we could
see snow. Interesting bet hedging.
If all of the factors necessary fall into place I’ll not
only win the lottery but also wear the Miss America crown. Dream a little dream…
Let’s move to the reality of life – fantasy can only take us
so far before we have to awaken. It’s
6:45 a.m. and Miss Sun is preparing for her grand entrance. The carpet of morning’s first light will roll
out to welcome us. Burn brightly sister;
warm the day and chase away the clouds.
Unfurl your beauty as we enter another rotational cycle of life.
Make today whatever you like; actually, figuratively,
basically, complexly or any of the other “Lees” that introduce a
statement. Speak your mind – don’t give
away pieces. Allow others to experience
your thoughts without surrendering gray matter.
I tried giving someone a piece of my mind. They gave it back and I had no place to put
it. The moment was awkward. There I was
holding that pulsing piece of thought in one hand and a cup of coffee in the
other. I could have used another
hand. I’ve made allowance for disposal
of any of those unwanted sections. The
receptacle hangs from my handbag. It’s
stylish and fashionable. I’m going to
check the US Patent and Trademark Office to see if I can protect this
invention. I think it will be popular
and a “must have”. People are too busy to stop and accept such offering. They’re going to need a place to put it once
given.
As I begin market testing let me know if you’d be interested
in acquiring one of these items. They
will be available in every color of the rainbow and if you pre-order now I’ll
send you a second receptacle free (not for free), just pay additional shipping
and handling.
Smile, it’s another one of those “Nikkism” days.
