Lightening up

Dang! Rant and rant and rant. Don’t you get tired of people who write blogs that rant? So kick me.

Yeah, kick me. This time, I’ll start with my little toe. On my right foot. Keeps getting a danged corn. Ever had a corn? Sounds like something an old fart would have…

…That’s not to say I’m not an old fart. Been around the block a few times. It’s easier when I don’t have this danged corn, though.

Seems as if it started out when I got this new pair of shoes. Clark’s Desert Boots. I’ve broken them in since then, but at first (probably like all new shoes), they were sorta tight. Around that toe. Dang! Toe still hurts, on and off. Shoe’s comfortable, though. Dangdest thing.

I got the new shoes after years of wearing a pair of their shoes they no longer make. I still have those: I’d even worn them in the lava fields in Hawaii when we visited in 2004, and they were old in those days. Still comfortable.

I always wanted a pair of Wallabees, but never got around to it. I’ve always favored suede shoes. Why? Because I’m too danged lazy to polish shoes, and because the dull finish matches my personality. They’re usually soft enough to avoid corns, too.

Suede shoes? That’s me. And a vest. Jeans, mismatched shirt and a hat. See someone around town dressed like Goofy, and it’s likely me.

Unite!

So I’m sitting here with the nail clippers trimming my corn fresh off once again. I do this about once every two weeks. And I’ve been going through this blog, looking at how I rant and rant and rant. Lots of old entries for Blog Action Day, each year, October 15, since 2007.

This week, I went through and checked all the graphics and links to root out old stuff and make sure links were up to date. A thankless task. Know what?

The Blog Action Day website is dead! Yep, dead! Dang! I guess there’ll be no more special rants on October 15.

I’ll leave those old posts in place, I reckon, with their obsolete links and images. Comfortable, somehow. Like an old pair of shoes.
