Blog Explination & Lies


I haven't posted on my new blog for one simple reason - performance anxiety. On my old blog I felt that I needed to post insightful or entertaining blogs (translate "long"). So when I decided to close out Robert's New Land and create a new blog I wantedd it to be a place where I could post my numerous random thoughts. The problem, apparently, is that I still feel the need to be entertaining and deep. Thus I have had trouble getting on here to post any one of my many quick thoughts. Last night I made a deal with myelf: overall the blog will be quick/short rambles, but other times I will...well ramble on and on. Will it always be entertaining? Probably not, and I am okay with that. I felt the best way to get going was to just get on and write something. So here we go!


Has anyone seen these glade candle commercials? They feature a woman who is apparently a big liar. In one such commercial she has invited her friends over and lights a Glade candle then tells her friends that it is from France. They catch her in the lie as they discover the Glade lable (which she ripped off the candle) stuck to her bum. BAM! Liar. They deception doesn't stop with her friends though. She lies to her husband and children as well. She told them that she had to clean house all day long. Instead she sprays some Glade air freshner around the house then goes out for lunch and a day at the spa. In one final act of evil she commits murder. She invites the women (who for some reason are still her friends) from the pevious commercial over for some Christmas cookies and again lies about the smells of her home. This time a little gingerbread man cookie speaks up and announces that she lit a Glade candle. In a desperate effort to silence this voice of truth, the Glade Lady grabs up the wee little man and snaps his head off with her teeth. This time her friends do look afraid. As well they should. Maybe for her next commercial she can lie to people in prison.
