Normal

Today I've been thinking about that horrible word 'normal'...it's a word I try really hard not to use but occasionally it slips out.

Is it normal to want to take a photo of your first successful home grown fruit/veg of the year? Possibly

Is it normal to keep a bag of plastic wobbly eyes to place on said fruits and veg and then take photos of them?.....hmmmmm

"Normal is an ideal. But it's not reality. Reality is brutal, it's beautiful, it's every shade between black and white, and it's magical. Yes, magical. Because every now and then, it turns nothing into something."

and another one I quite like (for obvious reasons),

"Normal is over rated, and so is spelling.You want perfection? Go out and buy a spell check, but know this: Spellcheck won't keep you warm at night or love you unconditionaly. I will stick to being abnormal and a bad speller. Makes life more interesting. After all, what fun is there in being normal or perfect?"
