Ideas (and Lack of Them)

“Laurie,” you may been wondering, “where do you get the fascinating ideas for your blog entries?” I am so glad you asked. The answer? Everywhere and nowhere. I get up every morning and hope something fairly interesting will happen to me or someone I know or have heard about. I have noticed that if I spend the day lolling around in bed, reading the papers and snuggling with the dogs, I might come up short. When I start begging my husband to take me with him on one of his field trips to Costco in hope of finding some material, I know I’m in real trouble.

I can really relate to your thoughts about the "college prep" routine for your son. I just finished the "prepping" and the "delivering" of my own son to college.

About Me

Lauries Picture
An edgier, hipper (as in cooler, not wider-in-the-thighs) 21st century Erma Bombeck, writer Laurie Yarnell blogs about life with her family, friends, neighbors, acquaintances, and such buddies as the computer geek-on-call and her local snooty barista. (Amazingly, some of them actually still speak to her.)
