Well, we're getting towards the end of the strangest summer I have lived through. Very few people have travelled abroad for their holiday. Most opting to stay at home or spend time on a staycation in their own country. The Coronavirus doesn't seem to be going away anytime soon either.
The days are getting shorter, at least in the Northern Hemisphere anyway. Dawn raises her sleepy head later each morning and the evening time is seeing the moon and stars much earlier than the previous couple of months.
Children of family and friends are getting ready to go back to school in the next few weeks albeit with restrictions on where and what they can do. The good thing about Jetpunk (other quiz sites are available, but you'd have to be mad to go there.) is there are no boundaries to adhere to other than the ones of decency and respect. I and many others make quizzes that members don't have to wear a mask to take part in.
On a personal note, I've completed the August On This Day quizzes. The final couple will be released at 0800 UK time in the days following this blog post before the first quiz of the ninth month is published.
I'm getting back into the swing of things again after a short patch of thinking if it was worth it. Just a glitch in the path of life that with a hop, skip, and a jump I have now passed. A bit like Judy Garland on the way to the Emerald City fighting off the demons of the Wicked Witch ! Only 4 months to go and the series will be complete and my days will be open to other thoughts of other quizzes.
I could here make an appeal for suggestions for quizzes I should make, or themes I could blog about, but I'm not going to. I understand that some members are a lot younger than me and haven't had the experiences of life yet, but please don't demean yourselves by asking for suggestions. I'm sorry if this offends you but it is way better to come up with your own ideas or thoughts. Make quizzes about things that interest you, not some other anonymous entity in Internetland. I promise you they will be more original, more interesting, and ultimately have more takers than a rehashed quiz that someone else has suggested. I may take a while but have patience young grasshopper, your time will come !
Thats all I can think of for this post, except to say.....
KEEP STAYING SAFE
and keep on quizzing !
