Alcoholism is a scourge we also have in the family, you’re not alone by any means.

sorry
I didn't have that problem with a parent, thank God. My oldest son was an alcoholic who refused help or to seek help.

In response to "Identity Theft Leaves You Vulnerable "

Triggered my memory of having a Bank of Montreal account, ages ago.

I use a local bank where they know my face; but, identity theft goes far beyond that. One thing about WDC I like is that much of my writings are here which gives me a fighting chance to retrieve what I've written and a chance to prove that anything I've written is mine.

As for passwords... I can't remember them all. So, yeah, some are far too simple and others are written down. I use my WDC account daily. That helps.

It's okay Lyn's a Witchy Woman

. I actually like the song... and sometimes its good to get the blues out of you so that the sun can shine again.

Those two songs are my blues tunes.

After I listen to them it is often good to listen to something upbeat like Overcomer.

In response to "Say Something.... I Was Just Joking"

"I was just joking!" would be my pick too. I have some family members who deliver horrible insults then act like anyone who reacts without a hearty laugh has no sense of humor and / or is stupid. It's mean all around.

Big hugs on the song triggers.

Yes, number 8 is senseless. It only shows how flimsy and empty the ideas or the talk of the person who says it. Mostly, I shrug such cliches off.

Yeah... #8 is cruel.

Skills Valuable or Not

30 Day Blogging Challenge

PROMPT May 25th
What is the most useless skill you have? The most valuable?

I have the ability to hold on to random trivia. That is pretty useless. I don't know enough to win at Jeopardy or Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, but I know enough to be able randomly drop in a weird fact every so often.

As for valuable.... I would say being able to write and figure things out by putting my thoughts on paper. Some people can verbally spar, I cannot, but if I have time to write things down I think I can manage to put my jumbled thoughts in an order that makes a bit more sense than if I just let my tongue loose. Verbal diarrhea is never pretty. But a poem is art.

Funny Embarrassment

30 Day Blogging Challenge

PROMPT May 24th
Write about something awkward or embarrassing that happened in public - it can be something that happened to you, or something you witnessed happen to somebody else. How did they react?

A while back I was on a trip to Niagara Falls and while walking up the big hill I could see a person dressed up as a Martian across the street. The friend I was with and I watched as this Martian / person would stand very still and then move suddenly scaring the crap out of unsuspecting people who were walking by. Well, it was rather funny to see the reactions of people, but what I found even funnier is when I walked past the Martian. I knew he would move and yet when he did I flipped out too! It was more funny than embarrassing, but the fact that I knew the Martian would move and then still managed to freak out was the funny / embarrassing part. My friend thought it was hilarious.
