 HELLO  I forgot about the blog and now I am back with not really much to say. Ha ha! Are blogs even still a thing?

 The spring equinox was on the weekend- this means my birthday June 21, summer equinox, is around the corner! Me, me me!  What is is that makes us obsessed with ourselves? Well, I guess the simple answer is that it beats being obsessed with other people. I can change myself. Alas, I cannot change others.  As the old adage goes, " What other people think of me is none of my business." Have a lovely spring and enjoy yourself!

 Its a new post for all 4 people who are reading this blog. I am buying a horse. That is all for now. Happy Autumn!

 The topic: Telling a story to someone who was not there when it happened. We wish someone had been there to witness what we experienced and so we tell a close friend about that day, that night, that hour.  Pleasant or unpleasant we unload the details and hope in our retelling some answer comes of it- that our close friend has some insight or solution. There is of course no solution because the event has already occurred and is now a memory. It has ceased to exist and remains only in our mind in that phantom place that holds our past. We trot it out from time to time when we are reminded of that day, that night , that hour.   Any insight that is discovered or given to us by our close friend, our audience is now rendered useless. The event has already occurred and it is now over. It ceases to be. What then do we gain by retelling a story?  Catharsis. We allow it to leave us and hopefully remain as a memory- as something that once was, that day , that night, that ...

 My god. Its 2021. I remember when it was 2000 and I spent New Year's Eve stilt walking at First Night . Its been 2 decades since then. And , oh the places I have been, the things I have done, the people that I have met, the experiences I have had...…too much to be contained in this blog!  And anyway who wants to read what I have done?  People are off doing their own thing. Living their own lives.   Perhaps one day I will write my memoirs, when I can have ample time to sit quietly and type and tell , tell and type the world who I am , where I have been,  what I have seen.

I just saw myself in UPLOAD ON AMAZON PRIME.  ( ep # 102)  I am thrilled to be in such a great show! Note: if you go to my IMDB page : I am MELISSA McLEAN. MONTGOMERY. 1. I  was not in " They Won't Last " - I have asked to have this credit removed several times, but to no avail. 2. I am not  MELISSA MONTGOMERY the daughter of Dinah Shore - that would have been cool, though. And now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
