What’s All This Then!

As you might know, I have two other blogs. I use them mainly to make money by putting linked phrases into 60+ worded post for $5. On one hand, I can write whatever I like as long as the post isn’t rude or bad for the link. Until recently, it has been a great writing exercise at times.

On the other hand, more and more of my assignments are about dieting, skin care or weight pills. After a couple of years of getting essentially the same topics, it has become increasingly frustrating to create entertaining entries of the same mundane phrases.

Last week, I received a phrase that was almost impossible to write with. “Almost impossible” he said with a sly wink. After thinking I had reached my limits, here’s what I finally wrote. What do you think?

Last month, I successfully completed 5 decades of orbiting the sun. Happily, the ol’ ball of fire doesn’t look any different from when I stared at it as a 5-year-old. Oh sure, my eyes tend to twitch sooner than they did back then. But that’s the price you pay for blinding entertainment.

Yep, I don’t feel any older than I did 10 or 20 years ago. Well, most of the time. The only difference was in the birthday party I just had. Ever played “Sag, you’re it” with a bunch of 40 and 50 year olds? ::: shudder :::

It wasn’t that bad. The weather was sunny and windy. This helped out a lot when a gusty breeze liberated a few toupees … off of the men too. Yes sir, there’s nothing like a rousing game of “Pin the wig on the bald guy”. We were going to play “Pin the tail on the donkey” but none of the politicians RSVP’ed my invitation.

Did we quit after this? Heck no! After a few (well, several) beers, we played that fun-filled adventure game, “Hide and go pee.” Some of us had a great time with this and others … not so much. Did it make a difference? “Depends”

One of the joys of aging is enjoying the rewards from years of hard work and trying to take care of everyone. This is otherwise known as high blood pressure. The cure is medicine that fixes your heart by generating a loud ringing in your ears. As a result, you tend to miss out on things such as “I love you” and “Watch out! You’re about to step in front of a bus!” But it does make for a great game of “Simon says … what?! What did he say?!”

All good times must end so we concluded my day of festivities by storming the Lazy-Boy store to play “Musical Recliners.” This game is only good for one round because everyone gets a chair. And we didn’t leave until we were good and ready. When the store manager brought the police in, we suddenly found ourselves good and ready.

We were going to play “Kick the Bucket” but thought we’d wait a few more years. Just as with “Red Rover, Red Rover, Doctor says Bend Over”, no activity should be more of a goal than a game. Now “Keep Away … from The Bucket” would be a great game. Everyone wins, mostly.

Hope to see you next year!
