PASTIME

Pastime... 

What does the word Pastime mean, anyway? Is it a hobby? Is it simply how you make it through a day that seems boring? Is it a fanciful ambitious activity like painting, poetry, artistry? 

I don't know about that, but I do know my past times of late. I find myself watching the The Shopping Channel/The Home Shopping Network and the other one. I'm hoping I will find something that will make my skin feel better, but for the most part I watch it to avoid having to hear the voice of Donald Trump.

 I watch anything but the news unless it's time to watch the news, you know what I mean? I am fascinated by the lady on the QVC who can speak about anything for hours and hours without missing a beat. I mean, when does she go to the bathroom? 

Tonight it's an olive product; I have no idea what they have made out of olive but it looks expensive and something I must have for Christmas. As soon as all of this is over, I will watch the Nightly News, and await Stephen Colbert and Seth Meyers and hopefully laugh myself to sleep ... wouldn't that be wonderful? Do you ever do that? 

I can try to frighten myself to sleep by watching Alfred Hitchcock and Twilight Zone, but that's not always a good idea. I am a big girl, but I still get scared. Easily, too. I think I'm going to watch this lady sell her Friday-yay sale on her Korres Christmas ornaments olive oil shower gel ... yeah that sounds about right. 

Thanks for listening • sometimes it's all I can do on a Friday night.

 Love you, mean it, take care, wash your hands and face, brush your teeth, goodnight,
