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.'
According to an MSNBC headline story today 43% of respondents to a recent poll say the country is 'on the right track' and 43% say it's on the 'wrong track.'
The headline? "Obama Gets High Early Marks"
Hmmmmm.
In addition to other mumbo jumbo, they also declared: "Perhaps most significantly, Americans so far find him to be likeable."
I guess that means a lot.

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."

Isn't it funny... about an hour after I posted this the article was changed - the 'bad job' part was omitted in the new version but the article didn't carry a flag that indicated that it had been updated. I love the internet.
That IS funny. Another curious thing... For the last several years, there has been a pop-up ad. for an IQ test on one of Yahoo's pages that stated that "George W. Bush's IQ is 125". "Can you beat that?" After the election, it read "Barrak Obama's IQ is 124". Realizing, I'm sure, that Obama couldn't be dumber than "that moron" Bush, they changed it to 128. Now, you can't find any references to Obama's IQ anywhere.
