I wake up every day with all these brilliant ideas of things I’d love to blog about.  Ideas run through my head all the way to work.  I talk to myself making mental notes hoping that if I run it through the gray matter long enough that maybe it’ll stick until I get home to actually write it down.  However. . . after the days I’ve had lately, the only thing that runs through my mind on my way home is how close I am to alcohol.  It’s been ROUGH.

So today, after getting home from work and as I was reaching for my second beer, I realized that my brain had turned to mush yet again (Not from the beer) and it was completely blank . . . again. . . swallowed up with the worries from work.  I thought I’d look through some of these photos that I’ve been scanning to look for inspiration.  It didn’t take long before I saw THIS.

Aaaahhhh!  I was SO HAPPY!  Can you tell?  This was about 1992 and I was visiting friends in Cape Cod and I was having a blast.  In this particular picture, I was singing Right Said Fred’s “I’m Too Sexy!” and dancing through the house like a lunatic.  And yes, vodka was involved.  Good times!  

I’m too sexy for my shirt – too sexy for my shirt – so sexy it hurts!

Then I saw this one.   This was about 1982, I’m guessing. . . a loooooonnnnngggg time ago.  I’m starting to see a pattern here.

My first thought was “Do I EVER shut that pie hole?”  My mouth apparently flies wide open when I’m having a good time.

My second thought was “Look at that tiny waist?  Is that mine?”  I don’t remember.
 
Whatever the case. . . it took my mind off of work. . . and on to happier times.  I’m smiling now.
