Tripping - As In Going Places

What four letter word starts with an S and ends with an ICK?  That's where I am.  It's not exactly a joyous place to be, nonetheless, it is where I am.  I don't know how I got here.  I'd like to know who brought me here, or if I dragged myself here on my own.  That would be an exciting story to tell wouldn't it?  Did I ever tell ya about that time when...   Well, I don't know, but I can tell ya what happened afterword!  Ok, so maybe it wouldn't make such a hot story.  At least not as exciting as that time I woke up naked in the library with a copy of Moby Dick covering the essentials and a flashlight in my eyes.  Uh, no officer, I had nothing to do with that car parked on the hydrant.  Yeah, that didn't really happen.  I just made that up.  Let's just say you should be careful of zippers.  They hurt.

Anyway, I was hoping to have something to write about today that would be mildly intelligent, or at least somewhat interesting.  You know, the kind of thing that makes you go, "Urp."  No, that would be mildly repulsive.  I don't particularly want to repel anyone from this blog, at least not any more than I already do.  If you find yourself repulsed by the words that compose the ideas, could be that you should find yourself a nice field of daisies and sing quietly to yourself of butterflies and honey.  Like I was saying, things that make you go, "Hmm..." but no such luck.  I thought maybe this cough syrup might jolt something loose, but no.  Wait, stop.  No, I'm not that kind of person, so stop thinking it right now.  I've never done drugs and I don't intend to start.  Shame on you for thinking it!  The nerve of some people!

Where was I?  Oh yeah, drugs (the over the counter kind).  Someone told me once they had to find their muse when they write.  I tried that.  Wasn't working so well for me.  I've decided to stop looking for mine and just grab the first one I see by the throat, shake it a bit, and stir up what comes out into a nice little stew.  Was that one yours?  Oh I'm sorry.  I left a bit in it for you for later.  You were going to use that?  Here, you can have some of this post.  Use as much as you like.  Maybe you'll be able to do better with it than I am.

Since I started this fiasco today with a four letter word, maybe I should end with one as well.  You guess.  It starts with a letter between A and Z and ends with one between Z and A.  Don't worry, I've made it easy.  Even if you're dyslexic, you've got an equal chance of guessing the one I'm thinking of.

Dyslexics of the world untie!
