Being NIce.


I am getting back to my wicked old self. I know this because my husband, St. Bob of Riverview told me I needed to "learn to be nice" the other day. I can't remember what this was in response to, I think he wanted to know what to get his mother for her birthday and I may have said a case of Marlboro's if cocaine was too expensive. The trouble is not only do I despise being nice but I don't think that it is something you can learn, at least I have never seen it in any community college catalogue. I think some people are naturally nice, My friend Sonia Purkey is genuinely nice. She doesn't gossip or stir up drama and she likes just about everyone, not Saddam Hussein or anything but everyone else. She makes being nice seem easy. But a life without gossip or wickedness you might just lobotomize me now. anyway we are pretty good here. Still fighting the mice and I am cleaning up mom's stuff at her house. I am sure QVC has had to lay off the whole Gloria Petersen Memorial wing. Still miss her, still wicked. My love to everyone. Valerie

  1. I would die with out gossip! My hubs is a not a fan though. He got me a subscription to US Weekly so that I could gossip about people I did not know. Not happening.

    Hope the funeral was beautiful.

  2. I think "civil" should be your goal. If you were nice, it would just weird people out. Hope all are well there.

  7. I think the comment was more like " you need to learn to not be so damn mean". Me and the mice have been watching Stewart Little, eating stale Doritos and anxiously awaiting your return. Can't wait to start dealing with your Jerry Springer family re: your mother's will.
