To never get mired down in the same old, same old, keeps those neurons fired up, helps you elude the trap of "I'm old. I'm cranky. And my life has to Stay. On. Its. Routine. Dammit."<br /><br />My dad was the biggest go with the flow guy I know and no matter how old he got, he stayed young. His sister who will be 75 this year, hiked the Grand Canyon last year because, "It was something new and I was running out of things I'd already done."<br /><br />Not that I'm saying we should all hike the Grand Canyon. But change the radio station. Give classical or country music a try. Eat at that Nepalese restaurant, even though you're more than a little wary. Befriend a slightly strange, but really talented singer. Ahem. And talk about ripples, we should arrange to meet somewhere where Bob is playing and finagle drinks with our man. With a few glasses of Chardonnay, there would be no stopping the wit and charm of the lethal combination of Chicken and Laundry Girl. Bob would write a song about us, of this I am convinced. <br /><br />Ripples. I love the sound of it.Joann Mannixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11163491824085428085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2592239604136907392.post-8102558983148046482010-11-04T21:59:42.356-04:002010-11-04T21:59:42.356-04:0010% huh? well, I have about 50% ripples going on i...10% huh? well, I have about 50% ripples going on in my life. New job and all..<br /> I have a new commute in Dallas traffic. <br />I have caused a few ripples to those drivers who while communting in their Mini Coopers -pulled in front of my lifted up Dually and saw nothing but the under carriage of my truck in their rear view mirror. I mean, I rippled them enough so they dropped the cell phone and ACTUALLY looked at the road :-)DKG aka Scrappy Doohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06614974219487708243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2592239604136907392.post-75638393838245008512010-11-04T17:22:38.974-04:002010-11-04T17:22:38.974-04:00No reason for fear, Missy.

I feel like chicken (or duck) poo today. BUT I like the 10% different in general and since I'm an eternal optimist I would naturally go with it being a positive difference not a 'less' difference.
