I’ve had a cold for the last few days and am feeling sorry for myself.
My nose is running
My chest is full of crackle
Ah, pity poor me
No theme today. And no more words. I have some cough syrup to take and Netflix to watch.
Gaming. Life. Pets. Cheese.

No theme today. And no more words. I have some cough syrup to take and Netflix to watch.
Foolishly, no doubt, I have decided to revive a short-lived theme I ran on this blog way back when in 2009; some of the haikus produced by yours truly and a few commenters have been reproduced below. Today’s theme, of course, must be Blaugust – use it if it inspires you, ignore it if it does not. Knock yourselves out or just mock my efforts.
Please don’t haiku-Nazi us about form, subject and imagery. This is purely for fun.
Sunday morning sloth. My Basenjis look at me - Why do this blog thing?
It’ll do for something yanked out from behind my eyes in 20 seconds.
I am definitely resisting the post-a-day Blaugust exhortation, and yet I am still doing it, hauling my unwilling ass to the keyboard every morning even though I know I absolutely don’t have to and would probably rather not.
This is typical me (typical me, typical me, I started something…) — I am not a joiner, but then I join things anyway and spend the entire time half-regretting the decision, ambivalent about being around so many people / so much of the time… and actually enjoying myself. Sometimes I wonder if I’m just a whiny old bag; I sincerely hope not, since being an actual whiny old bag (as opposed to playing one on my blog) is not something I aspire to.
