lollipop crush

http://www.stirrup-queens.com/2013/oh-level-158-of-candy-crush-you-almost-ended-me

this is an ideal blog post.

firstly, i also am struggling with level 158. so this post offers me solace. clearly 61 commenters are finding something also.

secondly, notice how she takes a small, everyday, yes-i'll-say-it trivial topic and stretches it to a wider theme. that is precisely what i wish to do here. it's brilliant, what she's done. from the invitro parallels to the call-to-action style philosophical challenge at the end. kudos, lollipop goldstein!

i envy this post in a way that inspires me. i am not bitter. i do not begrudge lollipop goldstein her candy crush success nor her stellar composition skills. if anything, i am crushing on her and want to write like her when i grow up.
