Curious Incidents of a Flailing Mermaid

This is why I never comment!

30 DBC - 3rd Sept - Prompt: "What are your thoughts on climate change? How concerned about it are you, and do you think its effects will be felt dramatically in your lifetime?"

Oooh jeeeeeeeezzz Fivesixer - why? Just why? There I am looking forward to typing away about nonsense and you decide, in your wisdom, to hit us with this!











Ohh I always try to avoid offering my thoughts on these things. Why? I'm not entirely sure. meh... Anyway, Global Warming is definitely real... Climates are changing... the weather is just plain weird... this is because the human race has been a bit dumb, a bit greedy and a bit ignorant for not listening to warnings - unfortunately it happens! ... any one who denies the reality of global warming, may well live in a alternative reality.
Am I worried about it? I try not to be. If I worried about everything wrong in this world, I'd be more of a wreck than I (arguably) already am. I can be selfish at times. I think you need to be - sometimes (not always). We're already noticing the effects. I just hope I die before the Earth fries. And I'm pretty sure I will, because its going to take a while.

THAT, my friends, is why I never comment!

On a different note, I got a lovely review of this blog yesterday, from River - thank you! You said you enjoyed "The consequences of a broken foot!"  because I told the story in a humorous way! I try! However, I've just noticed I missed out the bit about a very deaf elderly lady joining the hospital ward I stayed in at 1:30am then asking to use the comode! I'll spare you the details now. But needless to say, I didn't sleep. Mostly due to noise, and partly due to fear!

I've had a can of Coca-Cola Life today. It's alright actually. Not sure the packaging needs to be green though!
I'm half way through watching the film 'Philomena' and I am now off to continue...
