Reflections From a Murky Pond

Let me guess, like the rat in this cartoon, you’ve repurposed any exercise equipment you’ve purchased and moved on to less strenuous pursuits – like Netflix, Gaming, and the consumption of “comfort foods.” 😉 Hell! You probably did that months ago, but I didn’t bother chiding anyone about it in early February like I normally do because adjustments in expectations had to be made due to the economic, societal, and psychological malaise brought on by the panicdemic.

With All That’s Gone On, Inspiration Is Hard To Find

I do get it. With the extended lock-downs and closures of gyms across America, combined with many people’s lingering terror of being around other people, it’s been hard to find inspiration to get and/or keep fit. It’s not like we get the positive reinforcement of seeing fine fitness babes anymore.

But, it’s not all doom and gloom. The lack of motivation to exercise combined with the dramatic increase in home culinary practices has ushered in a new era in which hard is less “in” and soft is more so than it had been previously.

Soft Is The New Safe

So, once again it proves that COVID-19 and the panic that still surrounds it isn’t 100% bad. If nothing else, it has marked a decline in body shaming.

Please, Be Foolish!

C’mon, Ladies! On this day, April Fools Day, if no other, be foolish. Have some fun and don’t take things, especially yourself, too seriously.

Presenting April’s Fool

Presenting April’s Fool – Creepy Uncle Joe “Bad Hands” Biden, by means fair or foul, installed as the 46th POTUS. Oh, who am I kidding? Biden’s a senile, dementia-ridden fool 365 days a year.

Now that we’ve recovered the long-lost second pastel, Edvard Munch’s iconic and seminal work, The Scream aka Skrik and/or Der Schrei der Natur makes a lot more sense.

It’s Spring! It’s Spring! The long, cold winter of our discontent is over… or not. It being a week past March 20th, the official – read as titular – end of Winter doesn’t seem to mean squat to Gaia. 😉

It’s Spring! … Nope! Cold And Snow Are Coming

Alas, this is how the world works. Weather is what happens while “the experts” debate and attempt to predict the climate. 😆
