I hate watching a television show with canned laughter or laugh tracks. I especially hate reruns when the laugh track is so much louder than the show. Why do producers think they are necessary? Is the show not funny enough that the audience will know when to laugh? I just don't understand. I do know it is annoying. I wish someone would start a campaign to stop the canned laughter. Such a miniscule topic in the whole scheme of things, yet so irritating. Let me laugh when I want to laugh and listen quietly when I don't.
I like my new writing schedule. Small projects with short deadlines. I function much better. Evan as a last minute Lucy, it doesn't seem so overwhelming. I finished revising a chapter this morning and sent it in with a much better feeling about it.
My daughter moved this week to a new city and new life. The working life. She hasn't found the perfect job yet, but she hasn't really started looking. I wish the best for her. She is very talented and any company would be lucky to have her. I think she is excited, but that is somewhat overshadowed by having to leave a place she has called home for the past seven years.
My son is moving as well. I use the current tense because he is out of his old apartment, not into his new apartment and the majority of his posessions are in my living room. He is staying with friends until he can move into the new place.
I am really proud of my children. There are each becoming their own person and I am proud to say that I had a part in raising them to be the people they are. I never spanked them - well, they say I did once - because I didn't have to. They just learned right from wrong early in life and never gave us any cause for too much punishment. I owe that part to my parents.
Life is good.
