Mostly


I am alone now, mostly.
Yes, I have been married for nearly 34 years, so I am not alone, mostly.
Yes, I am 67 years old and my mother grew me in her womb and birthed me, and she also birthed my brother and sister, so I wasn’t alone, mostly.
I had no children, but have adored all of my dogs, mostly.
I went to many differently elementary schools, and made friends when I could, mostly.
I also went to two different middle schools and high schools, and made friends when I could, mostly.
I went to college too, nightly.  Students flocked to me, mostly.   I guess I knew the answers and didn’t pass judgment, mostly.
I started working when I was 17 and have had many different jobs, lasting many different lengths of time, and made many different friends, mostly.
I guess I’m flawed, or perhaps extremely particular, because I’ve kept no friends, mostly.
I think I want friends, mostly.

Baxter's Unusual Talent

First of all let me start off by saying, "there ARE dumb questions." It's a matter of who's asking. My friend Jackie told me to start my own blog. She says it's because she knows I write and would have good stories to tell. Personally I think it's because I'm full of shit. People who are full of shit are good at playing the game, Balderdash. Anyway, a little bit a bout me. I'm married and live in Arizona with my husband and 3 dogs; 2 Wiener dogs and a Chihuahua mix. Before we got the Chihuahua we had 3 wiener dogs, so I used to tell everyone I live with 4 wieners. My husband's name is Frank. How ironic or phallic is that? All my dogs are male. Now that we have the Chihuahua I tell everyone I live with 3 wieners and a chili pepper. Chili peppers in a way remind me of doggy dicks so in a sense I still live with 4 wieners. Those who know me, know that I'm nuts about my dogs. Yes. I am a nutty dog lady. And I can safely state that

WHITE TAILORED SHIRTS TUCKED IN

My husband and I went to Chili's yesterday for linner (for those of you unfamiliar with the word, that's lunch and dinner combined). When we go we always sit in the bar section at one of those tall, round tables and order margaritas (my husband has the Presidente and I have the Top Shelf with a side kick of Grande Mariner, on the rocks, no salt). One of my favorite things to do is people watch. Most of the tables were full so the people coming later sat at the bar. There was a nice looking young man sitting alone enjoying a beer. There were other couples and singles doing the same thing. They all looked rather normal and perhaps friendly, fun-loving people. Then enters a couple, older. By that I mean late forties or early fifties. They looked around for a booth or table and since the only one available was next to us, they opted for the bar. I wasn't offended by this because perhaps unconsciously this couple knew that I would annoy them to no end. You see I

Ring…ring...... “You’ve reached THE WHITE HOUSE.   We’re sorry, we can’t come to the phone right now, please leave a….you know what, we are NOT sorry, we actually don’t give a rat’s ass about you and your FAKE accusations about the POTUS – he was the boss of The Celebrity Apprentice don’t you know, and a good business man, even though he has filed for bankruptcy several times and claims he is still a billionaire.    Leave a message if you wish, but know that it will fall on deaf ears.   We don’t give a crap about the American people just as long as we get our name in the media."   Beep.
