Greetings, everyone!

Am sure every one of us has at some point familiarized themselves with colour associations and comparison, in our daily lives as well as our literary ventures. One of the most famous ones is ‘feeling blue’.

This week, for Sunday confessionals, I would like you to do your own exploration on what ‘feeling blue’ reads and looks like. Explore it from a known perspective created by yourself, explore its unconventional meaning, assign it a new one or pick another colour entirely and create about ‘feeling red’ or ‘feeling purple’ or any colour.

“Deliberation” by Mario Sanchez Nevada

Colors surround us every day, some darken or lighten our mood. This woman is in extreme blue because she is in pain, both mental and physical. Her body in red and yellow patches tries to stay calm, but her head is pounding, and she’s sobbing. Green blues are an attempt at soothing, surrounding her in peaceful hues. She tries to shield herself from the strong black spikes but smaller ones invade her head.

I’m sure the artist has other ideas😉

The Unicorn Challenge-20/09/24

I could never say yes to: here,would you try this: shrimp, clams, oysters, lobster, habanero chili, steak tartare, sushi? I guess that’s about all food wise. I should not have said yes a few years ago to ice skating, water sliding down a tube with big drop in middle, riding a three wheeled scooter over a speed bump, a second back surgery after the first one failed, believing any doctor without proof, and the list goes on.

Conspiracy Theories

It is Friday and I am here with your Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt. I haven’t been sleeping well the past week or so, and last night was the worst. Must be the weather. I’m blaming everything else on the weather these days, so why not that? By the way, the prompt is a repeat. I used it nine and a half years ago. Here’s this week’s prompt:

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “peace/piece.’” Use one, use them both (for bonus points), use them any way you’d like. Enjoy!

First thought was the Jerry Seinfeld show with the outstanding cast and this meme with Jerry Stiller playing George Costanza’s dad:

A longer funnier version of this scene is in the bloopers.😂. Even years later, these actors rule!

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS Sept. 21, 2024

Sara was sensitive to incessant television ads on her regular broadcast news. She watched certain news outlets and they would pull her into the subject like blades of gravity. Even her vacation at this beautiful inn could not draw her away from various screens, which she brought with her. A computer, iPad, iPhone, android tablet and earbuds. There was no moving forward for Sara, her mind was like a deserted houseplant, starving for some real nourishment. Instead it was mostly 24 hour Fox News.

Putting my Feet in the Dirt 9-1-18

A case of the pucchips, I believe.” “What? Hiccups?” “No, Madame, certainly not. I am referring to something missing on your computer.” “Then will “pucchips”fixthe problem? I haven’t been able to log onto any social media.” “That is my observation, yes.” “So how do I fix it?” “My dear woman, you are not capable of repairing this problem, and if I’m perfectly honest, neither can I.” The woman sighed, hoping this however snobbish clerk, would remedy her computer problems. “Guess I’ll just have to mail it back to Apple.” “If you wish, but I could have my assistant try something,” and took her laptop to the back room, returning about five minutes later.” The woman paid her bill and returned home. That evening she opened her computer to read the latest posts from her Facebook friends. It seemed at first all was well and then up popped a tiny fluorescent green figure. It seemed to be looking straight at her and was quite animated. It jumped around over the screen and then looked as if it was reading all the messages. It seems the computer store had been designated as one of thousands of secret satellite Facebook stations that collected people’s private information through little green creatures known as pucchips.
