Lately, I’ve been trying to hard to write here every couple of days, even if it’s not very good. I’ve been writing here nearly two years, amd a lot of content is here (175 posts and 257 comments as of this writing). I’m continually annoyed by one aspect of writing here.
At least one of the parental units never reads this. Two of my three brothers and at least some of the parental units also never stop by either. All the more irritating since there are some posts that I know they would like. And my brothers are the tiebreakers in any pizza-related issues (some of my most popular posts are pizza-related).
But the kicker is Mrs. Muttrox never reads Muttroxia. My own wife won’t read my blog! Maybe it’s stupid, maybe it’s not, but I spend a good chunk of time on it, how about showing a little interest? So on Thursday I told her she might want to read it, there was something about her on it. Really? Look for Mrs. Muttrox, I sez.
In the middle of the Superbowl (three days later) she yelled over, “There’s nothing about me in here at all!”
“Yeah, I know, I just wanted you to read it for once!”
So now she’s read the last week of Muttroxia, but she’s kind of annoyed with me. As she says, “I already know all this stuff, you tell me everything already”. Which is true, every dumb idea and fleeting observation I have she has to hear about. But still.
So I’m writing this to see if she will ever see it. It’s a little test. Sshh.. don’t tell her!
Unk J knows a guy
Aw, you do care!!!
Unk J is a very wise man (see above). Most days, Mrs Muttrox doesn’t have time to take a shower or eat lunch, never mind read the already familiar rants of her husband. She wonders where Mr. Muttrox finds the time for “175 posts” between band practice, playing Euchre and Hearts online and, oh yeah, 2 children…
Agreed Papa’s is not number one. Sentiment aside, it lost the number one spot a long time ago. I’m not sure if it’s Brookline or Newton, but I’m going with Pinos, as discussed here.
Your own wife is telling you she’d rather you spend more time with the guitar and kids than with you writing a blog! The best pizza in Newton – not Papa G’s but Sweet Tomatoes – thin crust, well done.
