This is the first real post I'm doing with my cellphone. I hope I get faster at this, or this blog will become much more difficult. I suppose it's a choice between shorter, more frequent posts, and longer, better thought out posts. I suppose there is no need for one form to replace the other. This tool will simply allow me to update more frequently.
I do have a few things from today... First, my Volkswagen headlight problem. The other day my light went out and I spent two hours in the local Firestone getting it fixed. When I returned to Plymouth, my grandmother noticed that it was out again. Today I was heading to the Firestone in South Bend when I noticed it was working again. I arrived at the store and the light seemed to be out again but when the guy came out to check, it worked. I drove around to get it to turn off again which of course didn't happen. I'm hoping it was just some crazy fluke, because it will suck horribly if that happens all the way to California.
Second thing... I discovered it is really tough to find postcards from small towns in middle America when you actually look for them. On the other hand, I did talk to some super nice people at the Chamber of Commerce and the Tourism office for Marshall County here in Plymouth, IN. In the end, I found some great ones at the Marshall County Historical Museum. My favorite is of an Amish buggy. Though I found it amusing when I bought it, I didn't get until this very second that Oats Mobile might be a play on Oldsmobile. Clever one I am... but it does make me like the postcard just a bit more.
Lately I've been mourning the loss of the art form that is written correspondence. Though I don't intend to write anything particularly profound or poetic, I am going to look for some amusing postcards to send. If you send me your address, I'll try and send you one. I'm writing this now when I currently have no readers, but if anyone happens to stumble on this, I'll try very hard to follow through. I promise that I'm not an evil junk mailer in disguise. I just think it will be a fun experiment.
Final item of the day... my new Sketcher shape-ups. I decided to try them. Though I have no idea of what the result will be fitness-wise, they are the most comfortable things ever, and they are most definitely helping my posture. I'll let you know how the fitness part goes. For now, big thumbs-up!
***note- I wrote this post last night from my new phone application. This app is very basic and won't allow me to edit. If there are mistakes, I apologize ahead of time and will make every effort to fix them when I reach a real computer. :-)
