Seriously U R Kidding
Heartfelt, humorous, and cynical narratives written by an almost famous blogger Tracy Gains.
My first offer for a “guest writer” to write for my blog. A beautiful story: by Kelley Gaines Friedman There are some things in life that you either luck out on or you don’t. And that’s that. And there is nothing you can do about it. For example, the family you are born into …
Of course the older you get the more acute your phobia’s become. No shocker for those of us that are already old and cranky… getting ALL wrapped up in our qualms and nagging anxieties. Spiders, lightening, heights and flying, germs, dogs, darkness…as the list goes on and on. And Oh yes…there is even Pentheraphobia: the …
Yesterday I had a hard time trying to “get going”. So I didn’t. I really couldn’t. My butt was cemented to my bed. My brain was on the breech of tears all day, and I ate stuff that would make a dumpster diver sick. You see… my son left for Yap with his recent angelic …
Sometimes my life is so ordinary that it is embarrassing. The fact that I write a blog about anything is amazing, amusing, and confusing. I just made macaroni salad, with boiled eggs, celery, and mayonnaise just for myself. Fixed a diet coke and rented a movie that cost $5.99 on demand and it’s 11:30 in …
It appears that the 40 year anniversary celebration at the fabulous Greenbrier for these two love birds isn’t going to happen. Therefore I can not write my “Part II” cliff-hanger adaptation of the “honey moon”, turn it into a romantic novel, and become famous! Damn it! It’s just one of those “life things”. HHHMMM…Life things? …
It seems like everyone is at the beach today, but me. It’s really hot and I would like to be somewhere right now with a warm breeze, holding a cold Sea Breeze. I have to be patient, and stay focused on my Netflix for another month, because my vacation isn’t until late July. I’m looking …
The lazy, hazy days of summer are here! Yippee! Now what? I am just as lazy in the winter as I am in the summer. I haven’t worked in five years so I have had time to get this dallying thing down to a T, for Tracy. About the haze … we all know it’s …
Have you noticed that for at least the past decade you are constantly running into placards that are plastered on everything with philosophical advise about how to live your life? You can get straight forward life changing sentiments off a coffee mug from Cracker Barrel, or on the housewares at Crate&Barrel! I now get my …
I’m not sure I understand the difference between a “country boy” and a “redneck”, but I do know that I should have realized one or the other was going to be a big part of my life when my “soon to be” family comes driving down from Georgia (decades ago) for our wedding in central …
A few weeks ago Gary said I have a blog idea for you. Unaffected by my silence he went on to say you should write about how important it was for you to get accepted into the Junior Service League of Gainesville. This was a hilarious topic to him because he knew it was not …
One of the reasons I thought it would be a good idea to start writing a blog is because I am constantly writing letters to people (almost everyone) in my head anyway. And like most people…this commonly occurs the minute I lay my head on the pillow. It seems to me that I have …
New Year Resolutions…Lent… GUILT! I am just getting over my severe Christmas “giving and receiving” disability, and now I get slapped in the face with …it’s that time of year to become “a better you” crap. I’m suppose to be inspired (on Jan. 1st…with a minor hangover) to become a better me? I have spent …
