Like you, Dorcas, I feel my life is pretty unexciting compared to most of my friends' lives! They are always doing something new and interesting, while I'm just settled in the same ol' place with my husband and same ol' job...However, when I look back on my early 20's, when my life was a lot more exciting, what with dating, new jobs, new friends, etc., there's no way I'd want that life back! It wasn't nearly as happy as my "boring" life now--in fact, I was usually miserable!

Not to mention all the book signings you do along with talks here and there and flying across the country frequently. Too bad we have to cook, clean, do laundry and tidy up between opportunites for excitement. But maybe that's what keeps us sane.

The one I took yesterday while I was sick said this about her life. She, whom I'll call "J", was the oldest of 8 kids. When she was about 12 years old her mom was out on the street and witnessed a mass execution of young soldiers who had supposedly fled the war with their neighbor country. The young men included her nephew. Shot without trial and no chance to explain themselves. The nephew later was found to have been innocent. J's mom went completely crazy at that moment and J had to quit school and raise her 7 siblings from then on... I did not feel so sorry for myself after that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11022879.post-56579494616105228012009-11-13T06:32:19.276-08:002009-11-13T06:32:19.276-08:00So sorry to laugh at your "boredom" but ...So sorry to laugh at your "boredom" but since you put it in such a funny light.... :)<br /><br />Also read Emily's teaser post.
