I can’t really get to my computer much right now…

My wife is slammed at work… 16-hour days and stuff… and she is doing most of it from home… so whenever I go to my computer, that is pretty much what I see… I mean, obviously it looks much more like the back of her head than that… but…

Feel free to ‘occupy’ yourself by playing the story writing game in the post below… until I can get back to my old tricks.

Why yes, I am the guy who figured out that you can type insanely long titles for your post, and that, for some reason, WordPress will still show the entire thing on these topic walls where our posts go when we tag them as ‘humor’ or ‘social media’ or whatever, and that this is a sneaky way to get around the fact that the text of your actual post is cut off after the first few sentences, but so far, I have never tried to push the limits of this notion, and see exactly how far they would let me go in the title of a post without cutting it off, and I guess the crack squirrels that live in my head decided that today is as good a day as any on which to try to break the record for ‘longest title of a post on a WordPress blog’… you know, to go with our attempt to break the record for the ‘most comments on a WordPress blog post that isn’t run by a celebrity or a corporation’… which, if you didn’t know, we are already doing, and that post now has 44,330 comments on it… which might be a record, except that for some reason, that is the one stat that WordPress claims they don’t keep track of… but you should still come to my blog and leave a comment on that post anyway, just to become a part of history, or reply to old comments from other bloggers, because it is a fun place to meet people, and I have the best followers on the planet as I have said many times… so you can find that post by clicking the link over there… to the right—–> at the top of my sidebar… the blue words… yes, that’s it… and, oh, I just realized that this title is going to be really hard to proofread, and I remembered that the spell checker doesn’t work in the title bar… so… I guess I am going to have to start going back the beginning <— using my arrow keys, and just reading it all backwards as I go… and thanks for everyting, hope to see you again…

Love yourself… some advice on how to make yourself happy… the final chapter…

Okay, I couldn’t finish this series… (and to find out what this post is about, you need to read the first two posts, because I am not explaining it again)… without adding one song from the classic rock of the 1970’s… and what better band to pick than Bad Company!!!… (Because I am seeing them live in a few weeks… with Paul Rogers doing vocals, not some cheap imitation Bad Co.)…

So, I give you my… uh… slightly altered version… which you would understand… if you had read those other posts…

Here it is…

I Can’t Get Enough Of Your Love… or my love… or whatever…

*****

Well I take whatever I want
And baby I want me
I give me something I need
Now tell me I got something for me
Come on come on come on and do it
Come on and do what I do

I can’t get enough of my love
I can’t get enough of my love
I can’t get enough of my love

Well it’s late and I want love
Love that’s gonna break me in two
Don’t hang me up in my doorway
Don’t hang me up like I do
Come on come on come on and do it
Come on and do what I do

I can’t get enough of my love
I can’t get enough of my love
I can’t get enough of my love

Love yourself… some advice on how to make yourself happy… part 2…

Okay, I know, I told you that just substituting the word ‘I’ or ‘me’ wherever is says ‘you’ in your favorite love song is a great way to cheer yourself up… and get a good laugh… especially if you walk around singing it out loud… and I still hold with that theory… but I was trying to think of some songs that would work particularly well… and I realized that the Beatles have lots of love songs… and this one works particularly well… because, not only are you singing yourself a love song, but it really captures that narcissistic tone that I was going for…

Come on now, sing it with me… All you need is love… an almost creepy level of love… for yourself…

**********

Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love

There’s nothing I can do that can’t be done
Nothing I can sing that can’t be sung
Nothing I can say but I can learn how the play the game
It’s easy

There’s nothing I can make that can’t me made
No one I can save that can’t be saved
Nothing I can do but I can learn how to be me in time
It’s easy

All I need is love
All I need is love
All I need is love, love
Love is all I need

Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love

All you need is love
All I need is love
All I need is love, love
Love is all I need

There’s nothing I can know that isn’t known
Nothing I can see that isn’t shown
No where I can be that isn’t where I’m meant to be
It’s easy

All I need is love

Okay… perhaps, in the name of good taste and your own mental health, you shouldn’t love yourself quite as much as I love me… but here is a simple way to cheer yourself up when you are feeling as blue as that shirt I am wearing…

Just pick any love song that pops into your head, and change all the words ‘you’ to the word ‘me’… or ‘I’… whichever works better grammatically…

Here is my favorite example… feel free to sing it with me…

I am my sunshine

My only sunshine

I make me happy

When skies are grey

I’ll never know dear

How much I love me

Please don’t take… my sunshine… away…
