Actually, I am back on two fronts – I am back working in NY and back to writing my blogs, although there is no correlation.

After spending 6 months working in Aiken South Carolina, I am now back working in NY. I hate being away from home and Peg like this but until I win the lottery or decide we can just live on love – I will go where I am sent. Gone from the Bambino, Nacho, Peewee  crew , back to the Tony, Carmine, Guido, and Johnny crew. Gone from Huddle House and Krispy Kreme to Diners and Dunkin Donuts.

I am also back to writing my blogs more regularly, I hope. I’ve missed it. I will simply attempt to write what I see or feel more regularly without worrying about some great topic. So all of you who have followed along (I think there are 3 or 4 of you) feel free to provide me with ideas. It is therapeutic and keeps me from thinking about being away from home too much.

I have a professional writer friend, Joni– maybe she can give me ideas. Although she wrote a great mystery once but has still refused to tell me who the killer was.  She even goes to writer’s camp. I wonder if the pillows at writer’s camp are shaped like erasers. When it is time to go to bed, instead of shouting “lights out” do they yell  “OK pencils down!”? Are they given 12 commas, 2 question marks, and one exclamation point  before breakfast and told to use them before lunch?  Instead of 3 legged races, do they have to conjugate verbs while running with an egg on a spoon?  Who gets picked last for volleyball, the one with a dangling participle? Do they have to get a semicolonoscopy as part of the camp physical? Are they banished from camp for ending a sentence with a preposition? Do they have to cook “some mores” instead of smores? Do they have to run laps for using a misplaced modifier? Packing for writer’s camp must be ominous – how many pencils do I take? Is one eraser enough , do I have to take white out or will they supply? Is there a camp doctor for writers block?

I could never go to writer’s camp, I am allergic to paragraphs. I prefer the beautiful run on sentences with just lots of commas. Just stick a comma in every now and then and its fine with me.

So, you can see I have not been to writer’s camp so we will blog along together come what may.  Stay tuned, maybe we can have some writing adventures together.
