A Blessing

Previous entry placed Jan’s name in the valediction for the first time. This blog began in its present form about ten years ago as a solo operation. Having gotten into the habit and unsure anyway that she would appreciate having her name attached to often deranged, ironic and dissident prose, not even to mention the aberrant humor, just continued in that vein. However, since she shared in what good wishes emanated from yesterday’s contribution, her name was included. In further thinking about it realized that since she is intimately intertwined into every adventure, whether lark or tribulation, and is a constant joy and inspiration, that she should be forced to suffer her name attached, whether she likes it or not, to this madness. You may consider the nice parts, when you find them, to be energized by her presence (this will be obvious to anyone who knows Jan) and the sick and twisted bits to occur in spite of that grace.
