Two on Tuesday…

by Amanda

Elephants_Two_by_Two.jpg

Sarah is always an inspirational blogger to me because of how much effort she puts into finding material for her site. I typically just ramble about whatever happens to be on my mind that day, without giving much thought to order and form. Here she posts a whole host of news stories relating to mental and emotional health, and rather than finding my own, I’m just going to send you over there because the write-ups are always so good.

I’m trying, as I have been since I started writing on this site, to think of a clever way to have order instead of randomness going on. Jooms, who I love just too much, has so much going on with her site that my jealousy is usually quite apparent. Sometimes I picture myself sneaking over to her house late at night so that I can see how she really does it. Her other blog now has a pretty new look, and her articles on Life Tips always seem put together and with it. Kind of like how she dresses, and the opposite of my entire life.

So, I’m thinking of adding some order to my site by doing Two on Tuesday and Friday Fives (Original, huh?). I can’t think of anything that you can do on Monday, and the idea of purposely setting out to write about weeping every Wednesday is just kind of… well, depressing. Thursdays… COme on, now. Seriously. What the hell starts with TH that could be related to Insanity?

And you know what’s really funny? As I start to peer around the computer room in my house for the dictionary, specifically so that I can look up things that start with TH, it IS NOT THERE.

At any rate, I am, I’m thinking, thinking, thinking, on how to make the site have more substance and less useless blathering. Even though useless blathering is one of my best skills.

I could blather uselessly until the cows come home.

Sigh.

    Thank you for the compliment. I keep telling you that any semblance of order is an illusion but you are stubborn!

    What will two on tuesday and friday fives entail? Is it a surprise?

    Your entry made me think of “Thoughts on Thursdays”, “Thoughtful Thursdays” or “Thinking Thursdays”…perhaps you could cover soemthing you’ve come across that has made you think or reflect upon (although you do that most days). Maybe you could make it a response to something in the news?

    Anyway, keep writing and I’ll keep reading.

    I was thinking more along the lines of “Throwing Yourself Off a Cliff Thursdays.”

    Clearly, you are a much more positive thinker than I, Dear Jooms!

    I guess your idea would be more in line with what would be expected, given the topic of your blog.
