They tell us not to touch our face.
Might as well tell us not to touch our phones.

I'm not opposed to tangents when telling a story,
but is there such a thing as too much digression?
I'll let you know when I reach the moon.
Our hunter-gatherer forebears found stuff in the woods to sustain them
while avoiding the stuff that would kill them.
Our supermarkets present the same challenge.
Mama's essential. Papa's incidental.
But if he behaves himself, he's more than welcome to hang around.

Aye, good one! " ... men are incidental." for sure. Over the course of a few marriages, I've learned that men, for the most part, exist for only two things: reproduction (in the majority of the cases yet) and comedic relief; the latter waning, the longer the marriage.
ReplyDeleteWow! A super collection of Squibs this week. Were you thinking of me when you wrote the one About "too many digressions"? The "supermarket" Squib gives pause for thought and for change of habits. I sense an emerging serious tone in the Sunday Squibs. Are you growing philosophical, or is it just me?
