Uh…can you tell I’m stalling here? Because I’m totally stalling.

So, like…hey. It’s been a few…more than a few…months since I’ve done this so bear with me. I’ve wanted to post and sat down to write several times but could never bring myself to hit the publish button. It’s definitely not you guys, it’s me.

I was diagnosed with depression in November and got some great meds and I feel much better, The End.

Okay, not the end exactly. Eventually I might write about The Darkness That Ate My Brain but first I need to figure out how. The blog might not be as sunny a place as it normally is for a bit but there’ll be warm spots. Stick around, the clouds will be gone eventually, sooner if I figure out where I left my sense of humor. Can I borrow yours? Tell me a joke in the comments (yes, really, remember who you’re talking to here).

    SO glad you’re back.

    I’ll tell you my mother’s favorite joke. It’s only slightly better than Richard Armitage’s, which is to say, it’s AWFUL. But you can tell it in mixed company as long as no poultry are present.

    So this duck walks into a pet store and says to the clerk, “Got any duck food?”
    “No”, says the clerk, “we only sell dog food and cat food.”
    “OK”, says the duck and walks out.
    The next day the duck walks in the store and says “Uh, got any duck food?”
    The clerk once again replies, “No, like I told you, we only sell cat food and dog food.”
    “OK”, says the duck and walks out.
    The next day the duck walks in the store and says “Uh, got any duck food?”
    The clerk says “Hey look, I told you two times already that we only sell cat food and dog food!”
    “OK”, says the duck and walks out.
    The next day the duck walks in the store and says “Uh, got any duck food?”
    This time the clerk yells “We don’t sell any duck food and if you come in here one more time asking, I am going to nail your little webbed feet to the ground!”
    “OK”, says the duck and walks out.
    The next day the duck walks in the store and says “Uh, got any nails?”
    “No”, says the confused clerk.
    The duck says, “Got any duck food?”

    Nice to hear from you! I look forward to hearing more. Sunny is not a requirement for me but I do like warmth. (((Hugs))) I can’t think of a joke right now but if I do I’ll be back. Tree

    I’m so glad you’re “back”. Alas, as I’ve been accused of having no sense (I do; it’s just that I don’t find every johnbrownjackleg thing funny) of humor, I have no jokes.

    Welcome back!! It’s so nice to see your url šŸ™‚

    For a joke, I’ll borrow from the master:

    A blonde walks into a bar. You’d’ve thought she’d seen it.

    I was just thinking about you today – so glad to read this post.
    So, Superman and Batman meet up in NYC, and Superman tells Batman about what happened to him last week. ” It was a beautiful, spring day. The sun was shining, there was a breeze in the air, so I was flying around up high, and what do you think I saw? There was Wonder Woman, in Central Park, on the great lawn, just enjoying the cool grass, writhing it, face to the sun, eyes closed.”.
    What did you do, said, Batman?
    What could I do, said Superman? couldn’t resist. I unzipped my leotard, and made a dive bomb,beeline right for her.
    Wow! said Batman. She must have been surprised.
    “She was,” Superman answered. She really was.
    But not as surprised as The Invisible Man was.

    Oh Jazzybaby that sucks! Big hugs to you. I’ve been there. Feel free to get in touch if you ever want to vent or talk. As for jokes…. I’m not so good with those… but here’s a kangaroo doing a surprise backflip off a trampoline: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B79U9H_zOpA
