This crab's name is Neville [source] |
And I'm a crab. Or rather a cancer, but I identify. They are strange and a little scary, crabs... what with the sideways motion and pinchy bits, but I think they are just misunderstood.
The zodiac gives two crabby metaphors that seem very fitting: 1) they are crusty on the outside, but very soft inside... true. and 2) a crab will lose its arm clinging to a rock--it is that determined. But if it in fact DOES lose the arm, it is the rare creature that can grow a new one. Those things are fitting for cancers...
Like this... only writing stuff... camping and painting? pshhhhh |
What? I did X-files and Xenophile in past years, I gotta go somewhere...
But I DO love lists... and what I love about lists is they make me feel productive... you know how I feel productive? By X-ing things off the damn list!?

Today I only have two things on my list and I'm working on one of them right now.
I like days like this!
Good job with X! (My daughter has hermit crabs, and we're forever marveling over her adoration to them. But I think you're right--we just don't understand the crusty appeal of the crustacean.)
I always have a list of things to do. Feels great to cross items off. Funny, if I do something major that's not on the list, I'll write it down and then cross it off. LOL
Prioritizing is so important. I know that from hardly ever doing it! Don't forget Xena! Hey, it's a guy thing. :-)
I used to hate lists. I used to make a point of not thinking horizontally. Lists help now as I grow old. And I do love crossing things off.
I've elevated this to my favorite "X" post ever. Let's not kid ourselves. Lists aren't about organization or prioritizing. They're all about the satisfaction of X-ing it off. Yes! Feels so good!

I love my lists -- they keep me almost sane. And oh yes, x-ing off lines on my lists feel so good.
I've never seen a crab with such a gorgeous shell. Kinda art nouvea style.
