Humor | Cathy C. Hall Writes

You may recall me mentioning here on the Hall of Fame that I attended an Elton John/ Billy Joel concert.

Here’s where I wrote about that little adventure again, in an oh-so-humorous way. I mention this so you’ll know that, from time to time, I write about the adventures from my oh-so-personal life. That’s what writers do. All the time.

So, if you were to, say, get lost three different times going to the same place (like a Junior Hall did recently), you might show up in a witty column. Or you might show up in a short story as the character affectionately called “Wrong Way.”

Just thought I’d tip you off, in case you read something someday and think, “Wait a minute. That could be me, except that I don’t have a big, old wart on my nose.“

It’s probably not you. But it could be you. Especially if you do have a big, old wart on your nose.

If you’re a regular reader here at the Cathy C. Hall of Fame, then you know on Tuesdays, I like to share my published work, so that you, the regular reader, can say, “Well, dang! I guess she does actually get published. I thought she just played around on the internet all day.”

I know that’s what my mom says. (Not that she’s a regular reader here on the blog. Mom wouldn’t read a personal message from the Pope if it came through an email.) There’s also a matter of Mom being a tad sensitive to what may (or may not) be written about her and her activities. But I think this might be one time that Mom would be okay with me telling a story on her. And because mostly, this column has more to do with Dad.

So, here’s Restaurant Tips from Modern Senior Living. And yes, that last bit about Mom and Dad really did happen. (But no one needs to tell Mom I shared this story, or the picture, with you and a gazillion folks on the internet.)
