seriously

Barry asked me what I wish I were more serious about. Or more devoted to. Or scheduled in more. Or possibly was more perfect about.

I thought about this for a long time.

I pondered.

I weighed the possibilities.

The pros and cons.

The potential outcomes of increased seriousness in the various facets of my life.

And after careful consideration, I ultimately concluded: what do I wish I were more serious about?

Absolutely nothing.

OK, maybe I should try more varieties of donuts. I only ever get the chocolate kind with the custard inside. Perhaps I should branch out into the cake donuts with the multicolored sprinkles. Those look pretty good.

    I too stick to the chocolate custard filled variety - they’re called ‘Boston Creme’ - or perhaps that’s just a term we use in the North East.

    I allow myself one per week.

    Love the blog…and doughnuts! Do we really NEED to get more serious about something…can’t we just enjoy being NOT serious about everything!

    I wish I was scheduled for more time playing with puppies. I claim that this is orthogonal to my (nonexistent) wish to be more serious about playing with puppies.

    I LOVE donuts - I’m salivating all over my keyboard :)
    Plain Glazed, or Chocolate glazed, or jam-filled - OH MY!

    I vote for being more serious about donuts! Being more serious about anything else could be too problematic.

    Doughnuts good.

    Can you please be my life guru? Heh. That sounds like a wonderful attitude to have.

    Donuts are cool philosophically as well, because they are defined by the part of them that does not exist.

    It is thought-provoking. I have been annoyance of sitting the same bus, seeing the same body, and doing the same work day by day.
    Now I ponder if it is worth to worry about. I can live better.I can just enjoy being NOT serious about everything!
    Thanks..
