This is me, after only eight hours of trying not to think about all the things going on in the world that would make perfect subject matter for a couple of my snarky blog posts.

I thought that taking a couple of days off to clear my mind of all of the insanity would be easy. Instead, here I am, writing about not writing.

Because I keep wondering what’s going on in the world that I’m not aware of: How are the folks in Ukraine? Who will be the next Pope? What secrets has Pete Hegseth given away today? Did the police recover Kristi Noem’s DHS access badge (not to mention her $3,000)? Have I made it onto the Kremlin’s “foreign agent” list yet?

But as it turns out, this is really, really hard. I may have to taper off gradually . . .

Just sayin’ . . .
