You probably need a sense of humor and a certain playful attitude toward life and the world around us to appreciate my blog. If you lack either of these, perhaps you can download them from the internet. If you've been here, I'd love to know - please leave me a 'comment.'
Good grief.
In all the fuss I almost forgot it was International Talk Like a Pirate Day - every September 19th.
Very important holiday, and I almost missed it. Arghhh.
Have a good one, Matey!

I started blogging when I moved from California to Kentucky – bit of a culture shock there, I’m afraid – and was having a mid-life crisis of sorts. What to do? Build a life of family, home and volunteering? Try to re-enter the job market? I thought that writing about things, something I’ve always liked to do, would help me sort it all out; help me out of my life as a recluse. “Cathy without a plan” was born. But I got sidetracked. I couldn’t resist commenting on the news, on books I’ve read, people I’ve observed, life’s absurdities, and all manner of other things. I really haven’t been doing much ‘planning’ at all. Oh well. And in the meantime, I moved again – back to the west coast – and now have a whole new set of adventures that are surely interfering with serious planning. So I'm unsettled, indecisive and wishy-washy about what I should do ‘next'... which seems to suit me after all. I used to be one of life’s great planners. But now here I am, happily, "Cathy without a plan."

I'll have to tell Brandon and Hannah - they'll love that! Brandon likes to spell our last name out loud so he can say "Arrr" at the last letter. They like to play pirate together so this afternoon should be fun!
That would be a horrible day to forget. I'm glad you remembered. =)
I forgot to mention that there was more 'complete' coverage of Pirate Day in my blog a year ago - look in the archives if you are interested. Dave Barry had made a big deal of it and that sort of got it going and now, according to our local news, it is quite a popular holiday! Who knew?
