Come on baby, light my fire Break on through to the other side. People are strange, when you're a stranger. Faces look ugly, when you're alone. Love me two times! [mmmmm, hmmmm, like the sound o' that!] I've had The Doors songs running through my head ever since seeing today's prompt for Stream of Consciousness…

Tales of Tails and Tall Tales #SoCS
https://lindaghill.com/2018/02/09/the-friday-reminder-and-prompt-for-socs-feb-10-18/ The first thing I thought of was something definitely inappropriate – I had read “tale” as “tall” and then there was “tail” and, well, I've got a filthy mind. Draw your own conclusions. Then I thought of puppy dog tails. There's a shortage of those in the house, given Knox and Oscar are boxers…
In Other Words . . . I Might Be an Idiot #SoCS
“In other words” is a phrase that, now that I think about it, drives me semi-nutty. Because, “in other words” you couldn't figure out how to say what the hell it was you wanted to say the first time. If you do that, just say “let me put it another way.” Oh. Crap. I just…
Gimme Gimme Gimme – #SoCS
FYI, this post is only tangentially about Knox (that's the puppy sitting on top of Oscar). Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “give/given/giving.” Begin your post with one of those words. Bonus points if you end your post with one as well. Enjoy! Give me, give me, gimmegimmegimme, was the first thing…
Ham, Green Eggs, and Stream of Consciousness Saturday
I do not like Green Eggs and Ham I do not like them Sam I am. Those lines from Dr. Seuss were the first things I thought of when I saw the prompt for today's Stream of Consciousness Saturday post from Linda Hill: Ham. I also started humming, “ham, wonderful ham ham ham ham.” As…
Ha: Stream of Consciousness Saturday
Ha. That’s the prompt for this week’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday from Linda G. Hill. At first, I sat here with my consciousness decidedly not streaming. Possibly that’s because I switched over from doing some work in an attempt to begin to catch up after being sick for the better part of 7 days. The…
This or That: Your Weapon of Choice #SoCS
This has been annoying. You Can Go With This, Or You Can Go With That Ever since I read the prompt for today’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday yesterday (“this or that”), I’ve had “You can go with this, or you can go with that,” sometimes accompanied by dance scenes, as an earworm. It’s…
Routes, Roots, and Stream of Consciousness Saturday #socs
What route are you taking to get to the root of the problem? Taking a hand (fingers?) at this week’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt from Linda Hill, which is: Route/Root, use either/both however the hell you want. Route is one of those funny words that I will sometimes pronounce “rowt” and sometimes as “root.”…
Ring A Ding Ding – SoCS
Today’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday word is: Ring. As always, kudos to Linda Hill for the prompt. My first two thoughts on this were obvious ones – marriage and phone calls (in the future, will actual phone conversations between two people lead to marriage or will it all be texting, Facebook likes, and the occasional…
Very Varied, #SoCS and #AtoZchallenge
All I can say is, “Thank you VERY much.” Before I remembered to look for the prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday, I was flailing; struggling to find a “V” word. I already have words for X and Z and a few options swirling about for W and Y. But, V, V was killing me,…
