Giving Wodehouse the Cheese
Okay, fine. I tried to quit but couldn't. I'd be sitting downstairs, typically reading the paper, spy something and think "Shit -- I've got to run upstairs and write something about this on the blog."
Then I'd realize I couldn't do that anymore. And instead of making me feel free, the way I thought quitting the blog would do, it made me feel sad.
A friend of mine told me the other day: "You're a man with things to say."
Which was a wake up call. It would be nice to wake up next to Suzanne Pleshette but that's probably asking too much.
Besides, I think she's dead.
Anyway, it was a slap to the head, in a good way. A cup of the old perk-me-upper, as P. G. Wodehouse might have put it. I'm reading, with two minds, a book titled "Jeeves and the Wedding Bells" by a guy named Sebastian Faulks, who frankly admits that it's an homage to one of my top five writers of all time.
Or fromage. Whichever isn't the cheese.
