"Such Pressure"

The other day my dear son Michael had the nerve to diss me publicly right on my own blog.  Apparently the whole thing is getting a little boring for him.  Don't you know Michael what kind of pressure that puts me under?  Don't you care? 

Here I sit at my kitchen table at 8 pm just wracking my overworked brain to come up with something to keep you entertained.  Guess what?  It ain't working and I don't care.  Well actually that's not completely true.  No, not the "don't care" part....that parts true.  However I did actually come up with a decent idea   I just ain't gonna tell you what it is until you apologize. 

Well actually that's not true either.  I am gonna tell you about it just not today.  You may find this hard to believe but I am still struggling with jet lag.  I still wake up way too early in the morning, usually with a headache (I'm not the headache type), and at this time of day I get so drowsy I can hardly hold my head up.  I also get unusually anxious and irritable, and find it hard to concentrate or get motivated.  And no, before you say it, I don't think that's the normal me.

I think tomorrow's gonna be a good day however.  I'm gonna try to sleep as long as I can and then have a nice long workout.  I'm also thinking of cooking the turkey tomorrow for the family gathering on Sunday.  I hope that either the workout, or the turkey cooking, stimulates the creative juices.  After all Mikey will be coming for dinner so I gotta be sharp.

....and here's one of those just perfect quotes I sometime stumble upon...

"Under pressure, people admit to murder, setting fire to the village church or robbing a bank, but never to being bores."---Elsa Maxwell.
