Why so gloomy, Batman?

So, color me embarassed. I've just gone over my sorry attempt at keeping up with BEDA and, not only have I not blogged every day, but good golly, have my posts been whiny. And ranty. Which is funny, because April has, so far, actually been a pretty great month. So far I've:

  1. Started a new job with great coworkers in a pretty, pretty building stuffed to the brim with lovely books.
  2. Frolicked in the sunshine.
  3. Looked longingly out the library windows at OTHERS frolicking in the sunshine while I was stuck behind the circ desk.
  4. Looked gloatingly out the library windows at others scampering miserably through the April showers.
  5. Read, and adored, Girl at Sea by Maureen Johnson.
  6. Rediscoverd my all-consuming passion for Lord Peter Wimsey.
  7. Seen one of my all-time favorite singers in concert.
  8. Met baby Annabel!
And that's just what I can think of off the top of my head, in terms of good things that have happened this month. I know I could come up with even more if I thought about it. But all I have written here is grousing. My cupcakes turned out poorly, I hate the ads on the MBTA, etc. etc. Who knew I would be such a dour blogger?

NO MORE, though. I'm turning over a new leaf. I will blog more regularly, and more cheerfully. Really, I promise.

Sounds like you have had an awesome month thus far! I, too, have the habit of letting my posts get very ranty, which I have been working on this BEDA.

Just out of curiosity, who is it that you saw in concert that is one of your all-time favorite singers?

Oh Margaret...clearly you've not fully given into the blogging mindset.

One of the biggest perks of blogging is that it allows you an outlet for all your bitching, ranting, pissing and moaning...that's what these are here for.

You can write happy stuff. Sad stuff. Silly stuff...whatevs...it's your blog and you can rant and piss and moan if you want to!!
