One friend had this to say:
My long-suffering husband was the original subject of this post and then I realized that I feel a little sorry for just about anyone who knows me and has to put up with my idiosyncrasies. I'll list various examples below and you can make up your own mind if the pity is warranted (you can also read past posts for other examples). Such as this: Of course, my husband's not perfect either. He's a pretty normal guy but he does the occasional odd thing: I tried to find the Winnie-the-Pooh boxers so I could take a photo but I couldn't find them. They were gray with small images of Pooh scattered across them as the pattern. Here's something to help your imagination: This past Friday morning I was a little late to work. I had to send this text to my boss: I started thinking of all the places I'd been in the past few days. The thought of calling Trader Joes or my hair salon was embarrassing but then I remembered this: By the way, I don't really know the correct spelling for my sister's security gowns. I wrote "pooh" because it seemed nicer than "poo". And I have to mention here the constant repetition of the word pooh in this post is not by design. One friend had this to say: My response: I was hoping my coat was at work but no such luck. I even checked the trunk of my car. Just in case. Then this: One of the nicknames that my husband has for me (which started back when we were dating) is "Masha-rasteryasha" which translates to "Masha who is always losing things". I lost a ridiculous number of gloves and umbrellas when I lived in Russia. I realized that I even have pity for complete strangers who have contact with me. So yeah, I have some annoying qualities. But at least I recognize them! I'm not being absentminded or annoying on purpose. It's just who I am. I've told people before, "Love me as I am, not as you would have me be". Which is probably good advice for everyone. Hey, I just realized that for once I'm doling out real and actual helpful advice. See-- coming here to my website isn't just a way to get a quick laugh. I'm helping you to be a better person. I should probably become a life coach or something. But if I'm honest, I would have to start all of my sessions with, "Do as I say, not as I do'...

You're actually quite full of good advice today: if your coat is missing it's gone to Narnia. Don't be afraid to ask sales clerks if they've seen your pooh. If the White Witch offers you Turkish delight take it and run. Wear the Winnie The Pooh boxers if you're getting a shot in your derriere. Sólo Nixon podía ir a China. Flushing the toilet when someone's in the shower is better than punching them.

I'm so glad I could be of help. For once my nonsense stream-of-conscious ramblings serve a higher purpose. I'm not Catholic but probably someone should contact the Vatican and see if I can get nominated for sainthood.
