Busy, exhausted, and... bored?!

I don't know. Nora Seems to have plenty to write about. I've got tons going on and can't think of what to say. My car hasn't broken down in ages. When it did, it wasn't nearly as dramatic as overheating. It just quit. At a stoplight. On a six-lane road. Coming home from church. And people kept coming up behind me and honking as if I wanted to sit there through the green light. So I really have no road adventures to relate.

As for mysteries, I always wanted to be the Hardy Boys. Unfortunately, my mysteries range from "Where did I put that printout I had just five minutes ago?" to "Why is my computer screen flashing at me?" I do know a good detective song from one of my students' books. I don't want to get in trouble with the copyright so I'll just quote part and I'll list the author (well, since the song doesn't list a writer, I'll assume the author of the book wrote it).

Our Detective Agency

"...Missing hat? Missing cat? Missing door mat?
We can even locate that!
Missing homework just before it's due?
We can solve your case with any clue!..."

Solve a case with any clue? What if the clue belongs to another case? I'd like to read a story where that happened...

Right now, though, I'm going to go eat supper and go to bed. I have a flute lesson in the morning. I haven't practiced so at least I should try to show up rested.

[For anyone who hasn't figured out yet: when I don't know what to write, I just respond to Nora's blog. (See link above--or below.)]
