Can "Random" be a theme?

     So, I've decided to pay more attention to this blog and try to post each day.  What I'd like to ask all of my readers out there (all, uh, 4 of you) is--Do you prefer the blogs you read to have a theme, or does it matter naught to you and you prefer instead the random musings of a somewhat sleep-deprived, middle-aged, domestically challenged, wanna-be writer?  If your choice is the latter, then hey--this is the blog for you! 

     I find that I've always chafed quite passive-aggressively at being made to write about a particular subject.  In my junior year English classes, my teacher often forced us to write short stories about a subject that she herself would choose. (Subject: Write about a girl on an airplane who looks out of the window. What does she see? What does she do then? Etc., etc. Blech.)  I HATED that.  And I would often rebel by writing the most inane thing I could muster up about her subject. (Sally is riding in an airplane.  Sally sees the engine is on fire.  Oh no.  Sally tries to warn the flight attendant, but he is too busy passing out little bags of peanuts to notice.  BOOM!  The plane explodes and everyone dies.  The End.)  But, I digress.  All of that was to say that I don't really like being limited to a theme.  So, for me, random is good. 

     I often find myself with random thoughts rolling around in my head anyway.  Deep, earth-trembling questions like:  Why does Charlie Brown only ever get rocks in his Halloween bag?  He's in a costume, how does anyone know it's him?  What kind of sick person would do that to a kid anyway?  or  If I use rapid-rise yeast with self-rising flour, will I blow up the house?  or  Why does the Man with the Yellow Hat send Curious George to do the grocery shopping, when he knows it will only mean trouble?  What is the exact nature of the relationship between those two anyway?   You know, the really important questions that NEED to be answered. 

Well anyway, that's how I roll.  Uh, randomly.  And not always with any sort of clear message.  Enjoy.
