The Definition of Folly. . . .

  Folly [fol-ee] noun 1. the state or quality of being foolish; lack of understanding or sense.

If you would like to see a good example of "folly" watch the 1944 movie, National Velvet. Starring Elizabeth Taylor & Mickey Rooney.
I had always correlated "folly" to "silly". . . Which mean almost the same exact thing,
  Silly [sil-ee] adjective 1. weak minded or lacking good sense; stupid or foolish:  
a silly writer . . 
2. absurd; ridiculous; irrational: a silly idea. 

Perhaps that enlightens alittle bit of the original meaning of such. . Can be downright rude, it's more or less just callin someone stupid nicely. . . lol Though I truly do not look at it that way, I usually see in a good manner as I fully embrace these things with the good parts, as stated in the National Velvet. . Sometimes Folly, or being Silly. .  Is not entirely a bad thing, and actually needed in life. 
Therfor the name of this blog,  The Folly Parlor.  I wanted to give a meaning, an understanding of what this blog is about. Like the beginning of a good book,
you learn your main characters, and you see a heading of what the plot is about.

 What's Happening?
(This will be my little spot of my current moment & what my plans for the day is)
So! Having a wonderful morning so far, going to be doing work at home today.
I plan on:

1. Cleaning my Room
2. Putting down flooring in my dad's office
3. Cleaning the kitchen
4. Washing Clothes
5. Cleaning my car
6. Helping my mom with transferring stuff from the house to dad's office.

Hopefully I'll be able to at least get half of it done :) Had a nice turkey sandwhich and banana, and I feel really good! I'm really wanting to get back into my music as well, (I used to play guitar, write songs & sing alot back when. But haven't done so in quite awhile now truly. Alittle here & there, but not enough to truly count.)
I would like to create an album, and try and sell it. We'll have to see!

  So, I love to write. (I guess to someone whose reading this would be like, "Wow, really? I would have never known. . . Rofl!)
But yes! I do love to write :D
  I loved to write stories, songs, poems and lots of things. I just normally don't post any of it. I have a story I started writing back when, but then stopped and now I have been re-reading it and wanting to go with it again. I might post some of it, for y'all to get some sneek peeks :)
  I never posted any of my poetry either, except for a few. I will post an old one I wrote a few years back,

       I'm the Girl . .
That you can't quite figure out why I am the way I am.
Just when you think you know me, I surprize you once again.
I'm the friend that's by your side. But yet I'm the stranger, along on the ride.
You'll always trust me. And Loyal, I'll be. I have my faults, like everyone else you see.
My place in the world, takes many different turns.
So you stand there, staring at me. Tilting your head, soon you'll see.
That I'm the Girl, who's Wild and Free.

 
 Not the best perhaps, but alot of girls liked it at the time :) lol 
Alrighty so! Howabout another riddle? A more difficult riddle perhaps? 
Tricky Riddle of the Day:
    A man was at a bar feeling poor he sees a rich man take 50's out his pocket to pay the cashier.The poor man says to the rich man "I know all the songs known to man." The rich man laughed and said,"I bet you all the money in my pocket that you can't sing a song with my daughter's name in it, Sarah Lee Greyson." The poor man went home rich and the rich man went home poor. What song did the man sing?

Think hard now!! Everyone knows it. . .
Happy Birthday!

I also love to read. . . I read a book a month-ish ago called, The Emerald Atlas. It was utterly awesome! Great story, thrilling, and loveable characters! It kicked me back into going to the libary and checking out books again. My first set of books I checked out weren't all that great. I haven't started out on my second set. . Which is only three.
"The House of Dies Drear" by Virginia Hamilton
"Ghost Plane of Blackwater" by William F. Hallstead
and "The Suicide Murders" by Howard Engel
The first two I found in the youth mystery section,
and the third in just the regular myster section. It was more of a look & grab so I have no idea.
I will post reviews after I have read them!

Alrighty well, I'll post later Mehearties and ttyl! Feel free to comment, or anything :)
Swyl!
