I Asked My Husband What I Should Blog About…
Green beans.
What is there to say about green beans?
They are green, and they grow on bushes or poles. They are the main ingredient in a delicious holiday casserole, though as a child I did not appreciate it one bit. That was the dish I avoided, and I usually got away with it as long as there was another vegetable option on my plate. (I favored creamed corn, and still do.) The kind of green beans I most enjoy are the garlicky sauteed variety that come from Chinese restaurants.
These look pretty good though…
I Should Keep a Log
Something I’ve never bother to do before? Keep a log of all my work activities. It’d be nothing fancy to start, but just a quick run-down of the things I’ve done during the day, problems I’ve encountered, information I’ve shared or received, etc.
That sort of thing would probably come in handy. Once I got better at recording things, maybe I could start to work them into stories to use for various purposes.
I blame this notion on the book I’m reading: The Elements of Persuasion. It mentions the real-life stories The Ritz-Carlton uses to motivate employees and increase business by word-of-mouth advertising. When people have some autonomy and enough time to go above and beyond, some amazing things happen.
It’s Coming!
It’s nearly time to put up the holiday decorations! And it’s nearly time for all of my favorite Muppet specials and movies! A Muppet Christmas Carol, Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas, A Muppet Family Christmas, etc. ect. Considering the album John Denver and the Muppets: A Christmas Together came out mere months after my birth, it seems natural that Christmas and Muppets go together for me like bacon and eggs.
Journey Quest
If you’re a geek like me, this is the sort of thing that gets you excited… Journey Quest is about to have a full-length second season!!
There’s something about fantasy and comedy together that works really well for me. It’s an invitation for the mind to come out and play; to not take everything so seriously. It’s a reminder that sometimes you want someone a little different on your team, because diversity of talents is a good thing. A questing party of five human fighters would get pretty dry, and quite dangerous, after a while.
I pledged $50, so apparently I get to coin two Orcish words. Any suggestions?
Six Left
I’m on episode 173 of 178 of Star Trek: The Next Generation. My favorite moments of the series have to include Data’s Ode to Spot and Picard making young Patterson his ”Executive Officer in charge of radishes.” I love this series! The only episode that really threw me was The Host. It felt too much like a fanfic story.
I’m looking forward to checking out DS9 next, since I didn’t pay all that much attention to it when I was a kid.
Your Host
