Don't Wake Me, I'm Thinking

So, I haven't blogged for a while. So, sue me. I've been busy. You have no idea how busy I've been lately. OK, so I've had all the time in the world, between naps, but when you're as inactive as I am, it's hard to come up with a blog post (she whined).

However, I have been reading YOURS, and even commenting. Sometimes I get so caught up in reading other peoples' blogs that there is no time left for me to do one of my own. OK, there's plenty of time, but you all have such interesting ideas and mine are so dull (she whimpered).

Anyhoo, one of the blogs I love to read is The Fabulous Geezersisters. It's a wildly popular blog, read and commented on by hundreds, and deservedly so. Yesterday, Ruth Pennebaker explained her theory that she never does nothing. No matter how it appears, she is always doing something. She calls it "gestating". And, I have decided to adopt this philosophy.

Here's the deal. If I haven't blogged for a while, it is because I have been busy gestating. If you see me, you might think I am sleeping or simply staring slack-jawed at a blank wall. But, on the inside, I'm a veritable beehive of activity - gestating, you see. It may not be immediately apparent, but my mind is churning away, thinking deep thoughts. Sometimes these thoughts even come to life in a blog post - not often, but sometimes.

A blog post like this one, for instance.

Stay tuned.
