The mind just doesn't work like it use to

I was going to write a post on my other blog but I could not think of a thing to write. It did not help that the TV was blaring in my ear. You could ask "why not turn down the TV?" Well I'm visiting my parents in PA.

Being home brings back a lot of old memories. There was the time I wanted a dog so my Uncle Billy Bob bought me a monkey. Why I have know idea why he thought a monkey would be anything close to a dog. My mom however was not as happy, or excited, as I was and would not let me keep the monkey. Then there was the time we all went on a family vacation to "The Greatest Place in the World." Turns out that my parents meant grandma's house and not Universal Studios Orlando.

Though it was not all disappointment as there was the time my foot almost fell off and my dad put it back on using a hot glue gun. I remember his words like it was yesterday "suck it up and be a man,boy." "Real men don't cry, you baby." Of course there was lots of love to go around. One Halloween I had to go trick or treating as myself because my brothers costume cost so much that there was no money left for mine. Everyone would ask "Who in the world are you suppose to be?" They looked at me as if I was dumb, though I think the pointing and laughing was more detrimental.

Looking back I really don't recall any of this. Maybe I should focus more on posting and less on watching TV. I have a strange feeling that all of this was on a movie I saw.

Really it all happened . I had to write that last part because my parents saw what I was writing and got mad.

Hmmmm. That sounds a bit out there. But I'll buy the bit about glueing your foot back on for a vowel.
