As a follow up to yesterday’s post, I’m reorganizing and making a writing, blogging, acting, retiring-my-behind-in-the-sand plan this weekend.
If my neighbors are reading this, not to worry, I will also be out in the yard today. As long as it doesn’t rain. I promise to have the leaves up (or at least mowed under) before they start falling again. Work with me here.
Having said that, enjoy these random thoughts.

I wish I was making that up. Help us, Jesus. Seriously.
Also on this date in 1955, Tennessee Williams won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.
If you’re casting, I am your Big Daddy.
Finally, American singer-songwriter and actress, Lesley Gore was born on this day in 1946 (died February 16, 2015).
