"Don't you do it." For whatever reason, as often happens with these things, a random image popped into my skull at today's prompt. Apollo Creed telling Balboa not to throw in the towel againgst . . . what was the Russian's name. Drago. That's it. Hmmmm, Ivan Drago. Khal Drago, I wonder if Georgie Boy…
Fingernails. Blackboard (or chalkboard, they were black in my grade and high school). That's how much I cringe when I see or hear the phrase "out-of-the-box thinking," tge first thing I thought of when I saw today's prompt. And so we begin the 2nd consecutive (yay, me) Stream of Consciousness Saturday from Linda G. Hill's…
Which way you gonna go this year? Photo by Javier Allegue Barros on Unsplash Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Every year, the self-improvement industry makes a killing on everyone's resolutions to be different in whatever way -- weight, work, family, relationships, habits, cooking, etcetera and etc. Most fail.

Is he offering her a discount for "rich, Corinthian leather"? Or, perhaps, preparing to hurl his wrath at Captain Kirk? Or singing in Neptune's Daughter? It is far from warm and cozy outside.

Anyway, here's a SoCS double-dose. I wrote one last week, and then couldn't get into my WordPress account. First up, the prompt for December 10; then scroll on down for today's prompt: Anyway. Struggled a bit with this prompt, as the first two things that popped into my head: A very inappropriate joke around a…
I am a fan of the word "amble." It's an accurate description of my usual walking speed (see also, mosey, saunter, stroll, or meander). Today's Stream of Consciousness prompt from Linda G Hill is, of course, "-amble": Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “—amble.” Add letters to the beginning of “-amble” to make…
As usual, two things popped into my head simultaneously at today’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt: The Carmina Burana’s “O Fortuna” trackYou’ve given me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it, I thank you all Marginalia found in medieval manuscripts is bizarre and fascinating and cool and I think I'm going to get…
Well, there’s my earworm for the day:Let it go, let it go something something I don’t actually know the words so those three words will be tumbling in my head for a good little bit. Huzza. Not. OTH, maybe it’ll replace Wig Wam’s “Do you wanna taste it, do you really wanna taste it” from…
Today's prompt is a tough one as I don't really have one. LInda G. Hill confronts us with the following prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday: Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “least-favorite word.” Use your least-favorite word in your post. If you can’t decide on one, use a word that just really…
Photo by Geetanjal Khanna on Unsplash Hope without action is just a wish. And unlikely to happen. Reminds me of one of my favorite sayings, "Wish in one hand, shit in the other.
