Go ask Someone.
It’s been a whirlwind of travel and theatre here in Canada, and a jolly good time too checking out the wines of Niagara. We are presently in Toronto (Room #205). Someone is at the drag show, and I am fading fast. Before I nod off, I wanted to get on line and write a post for goodness sake.
Trouble is, what’s there to write? For those who haven’t connected the dots, Someone recently took up blogging. I am pleased and proud of him for doing so. However it produces a novel predicament: when I get a notion upon which to blog, as I write it out I realize he’s beat me to it. He’s quick as a wink, for he writes and posts his entries via the Iphone. So, my half baked ideas have fall flat like a souffle in a cook-off contest against Martha Stewart.
Perhaps I should stick to subjects outside of Someone’s realm. I am sure a blog entry on corkscrews would fascinate, no?
Perhaps I should write out my ‘What did I do on my vacation’ posts anyway. Spo-fans can read both views and try to figure out what really happened. Truth is, he writes well and accurately, not like my flamboyant embellishments.
Perhaps we are not so much “Roshmon” as Don Quixote and Sancho Panza.
More to the point, we are now “Someone” and “Someone Else”. 🙂

Deciding what to blog about is a puzzlement. I will read both your blogs ad enjoy them both. I like seeing different perspectives on things.

Surely you don’t hold the same opinions on every single play?
I adore both of your blogs. But it seems to me that your writing
styles and topics are quite different.
There are many questions eager Spo-fans would like answered:
What has been the reception to the new Spo-shirts?
Are you eating enough ripe in-season tomatoes?
How have the lodgings been?
Have you remembered to move your bookmark? (Oh. It’s not that kind
of vacation…)
What have been your favourite moments on the trip thus far?

“For those who haven’t connected the dots…” Again, the story of my life. Now I have a lot of old reading to do.
Dear Spo, don’t fret, we won’t leave you for Someone. And don’t worry about repeating your life’s anecdotes after Someone has already shared them with us. Getting the facts of your shared life events is fine, but it is your perception and expression of those events that we are most interested in. In other words, just because Someone blogs about something first doesn’t mean it is off-limits to you.
I’d like to know why Someone after all these years has now decided to join in. I think I know where I might be able to find that answer…
