Where was I going with this?

It was a dark and stormy night.....

And somehow, the night was as silent as a grave. Each muted flash of lightening only made the quiet more audacious. Rain patted the ground with a steady soft white noise. Wind moved mundanely through the leaves. It was eerily calm.

The sudden crack of thunder made a rip through the black night and shattered the silence with it's crackling echoes.

hehe

How's that? I write ok. Apparently when you're a kid, you have an attitude that prevents you from learning. Or at least I did. Well, that and I'm way too impressionable. Especially teenage Becky.

I wanna do a post or something on "life hacks". Ugh. I dislike those words greatly, but since it's widely used....what if I put my own spin on it....how 'bout "life shortcuts"...uhm...."brain helpers"....ok ok, how 'bout, "Things that make simple tasks simpler"?

For instance, I've recently discovered another use for diaper wipes (even if you don't have a kid, buy em, trust me). Since diaper wipes are extremely gentle for little sensitive baby skin, it stands to reason that they'd be gentle on eyes. During my annual ladies camping, I discovered you can wipe off old eye makeup smudges with a fragrance free Huggies wipe. I've been using them in most of my morning makeup rituals ever since. So...how 'bout them diaper wipes? Eh? ....eh?

Well, I had a whole Imgur post planned and everything. I've come to terms with never making front page. It'd be neat. Kinda celebrity status for a day. I think I might be too sensitive for the obvious criticism I'd receive. Bah, anyway, I had a "Things that make simple tasks simpler" list idea but maybe my time is better spent elsewhere.

....no one reads these posts anyway. They're not interesting. I've not much to offer except my own meaningless life lessons.

Wow, gee, that took a turn, didn't it?

Maybe this can act as my writing portfolio. Maybe I could put a post on imgur about my pointless site and get some sympathy followers. Sigh. Why am I so pitiful?

Ok, I'm ending this before Eeyore comes back.
