A Little South of Sanity

I’ve noticed recently that the more I watch the news the less I want to know. I guess you could call me the proverbial ostrich who wants to stick her head in the sand, but I can’t watch the news and not think this world has gone crazy. The crazy thing is; I feel pretty sure that many others in the world echo my sentiments, but yet we aren’t willing to make changes within ourselves or encourage those around us to do the same.

I don’t know any overly crazy people- ok, maybe a few- but I mean seriously, all these wackos have to be someones family, so why aren’t people reaching out and trying to get them some help?

Spread the love people! I believe love is the answer to all the worlds’ problems.

Well since the latest ‘rage’ seems to be allowing the highest bidder on Ebay to name a persons unborn child, I decided what a great way for us to earn some extra cash by allowing the highest bidder to name the dog we plan on buying early next year. This little venture has the potential to line our pockets with thousands of dollars, which we can use to buy ‘doggie bags’ and vacations with ‘doggie’ when he/she is feeling a little stressed and needs to get away.

When the ‘puppy’ is actually born, I’ll place my ad, and YOU can get in on the bidding. Remember, you could even be the highest bidder AND name our future pup, so get creative, and send in those dollars!!

I’d say something like this makes the ‘freaky’ list on any day, including Friday, but truth is- I think I’m seriously going to try it, just to see if someone actually bids on the ‘opportunity of a lifetime’. Granted, IF anyone does bid, I won’t accept the cash (although I should, if someone has cash to toss away like that) , but I’m curious how it will play out.

So watch this space- When the time comes, I’ll be doing just like this woman, but instead of our unborn child, it will be the newest 4-legged addition to the family.

Call it a social experiement, call it curiosity, or call it plain crazy. You decide.
