One or two of my friends have pointed out that I ought to blog with abandon. There are so many things that are funny which I don't tell you because of my demure nature. Ok, I am not really demure, but there are some things one oughtn't to speak of in public.
Like the maxi-pads in the candy dish. That was very, very funny; albeit not suitable for my male readers. They looked so out of place in the living room, and resting in the silver candy dish. (They were unopened, in case you were wondering. And there was only one....the other two had disappeared, and were found later in other parts of the house. Still unopened, mercifully.) My guests didn't seem to notice. I won't tell you why they were there, you will have to use your imagination.
But there are funny things like that almost every day. Perhaps I will give you glimpses, and if the world doesn't end, I'll tell you others. I have to break you in easy.

The following was sent to my email account, and I thought it was an important comment, so I publish it here for your benifit:
Dear Ms. Manners,
For the sake of all of us, please don't succumb to bad influences and forget your manners. You are correct in thinking that there are some things not suitable for
public display or consumption. Please don't lose your G rating. (think of Granny)
Sincerely,
A conservative voice for the masses
I guess American 'Granny's' are different, I seem to remember my grandmother decorating her Christmas tree with tampons one year..... Of course, she is also reality challenged.
Manners are important. Candy dishes are for M&Ms or mint candies. White shoes go in the closet after Labor Day. Fork on the left side of the plate, knives on the right - facing the plate please! Burping is only considered polite in China.....
Where would we be without manners?
Living in caves, eating raw meat and dragging women around by their hair? Even Neadertal's enjoyed clubbing....
Manners, shmanners.
If you can't talk about schtuff on your blog, where can you talk about them? After all, it's your blog.
