Ever have one of those times where you can't think of a single thing to write about, even if it means your children will cut out your tongue and stick it in Shrek's ear? No? Damn.
I started just looking around, with the vague hope that something would jump out and smack me upside the head. Hopefully, where it would show, so I could get some sympathy, and maybe a couple of cups of coffee. I was checking my stats and found some interesting search terms that brought readers to my blog. Here are a few:
1. Shoelacing methods. I do not remember ever writing about learning how to tie my shoelaces. In fact, I try NEVER to talk about it, and relieve the years of therapy it took me to get past that phase. Most likely the reason I wear shoes, with like, you know, velcro.
2. Basenji with mental illness. That would be my dog. Enough said.
3. Big girls butt. I take it these jeans make my ass look fat?
4. Guinea pigs called Moogie . Oh, like the whole big girls butt thing doesn't do enough to damage my fragile psyche.
These are just a few. I don't want to go any further than this because it scares me. I really don't need to have more dreams than I already have.
So there you have it. The things I post about when I have nothing to say. Yes, I'm just this side of pathetic. Now, can I have that cup of coffee now?

But, you still have your sense of humor...
It all sounds good dear.
There will be an avalanche of ideas and stories, just when you least expect them.
That's the nature of these damn tempermental muses...

I wrote one entry on how I couldn't fold fitted sheets about a year and a half ago and "folding fitted sheets" is still my #1 search term. Reckons they're all disappointed when they find out my whole entry was about NOT folding them.

G'day Moogie, I suffer from it all the time my friend. I read yours daily and you always come up with interesting and humourous observations/reflections. Just be yourself mate, that is why we always come back. Take care, catchya soon xoxo (ps- make mine white with two please)

Fear not Moogie...you could write about the phone book and make it funny and entertaining. Every post is fantastic -- because it's written by you!
...do you have a basenji?

Great writers always manage to find something to say even when their minds are firmly stuck in Park with the handbrake firmly applied. Your post provides ample evidence that you can still crank it out even when the muse apparently wishes otherwise.
Speaking of search terms, some of the ones that lead to my site are downright frightening. I haven't posted them because I worry my mother will be offended.

Big butted hamsters named Moogie wearing tight jeans? What?
