A Tribute to Blinds

That's it.
I'm fed up.
Quite frankly, I've had it.
I'm sick and tired of window blinds not getting the credit they deserve.
Blinds are possibly one of the greatest inventions ever in home accessories and no one cares.
For centuries people have been covering their windows with blinds and shades to block sunlight and maintain privacy.
Just imagine, we are still using the same technology for our window treatments as the Ancient Egyptians.
What is the significance of this? Blinds are timeless and unless people revert back to being nomads, living in the wild, or choose to live in fully sealed concrete shelters, deciding the outside world is too dangerous, they are never going away.
It's time for everyone to stop looking at the world beyond the blinds and start appreciating the many invaluable services that blinds provide.
I would like to take this time to personally express my gratitude to my blinds for all they do every day to make my life that much better.
Every time the blinding, irritating sun doesn't steal my last precious hours of sleep in the morning, I thank my blinds.
Thank you blinds for being my protector from the evil sun that tries to wake me up before my equally evil alarm clock.
Without you my naked, helpless window would stand no chance against the bright morning light.
You are truly my knight in shining armor.
Every time I get out of the shower and don't want the neighbors, whose patio looks right into my bedroom window, to see me do the post-shower naked dance while I decide what I'm going to wear, I owe my blinds a pat on the back.
I could be the running joke of the neighborhood without my blinds.
Luckily, I don't have to worry about that.
Every time I want to spy on the neighbors, whose patio looks right into my bedroom window, my blinds are my fearless partner in crime.
If it weren't for my window blinds keeping me hidden, I might never be able to witness the National Enquirer worthy scenes which take place on that patio.
It's the best live theater drama, reality TV, comedy show all wrapped up into one without the high prices of today's digital cable.
And who can I thank for this thrilling entertainment, that's right, my blinds.
This perhaps will make me seem like a creeper but that's fine.
My blinds understand me.
Every time I need to be productive and get some work done on the computer, I high-five my blinds.
They block the annoying glare and shadows from my screen to give me peace of mind while I work.
For this I am eternally grateful.
To sum it up, window blinds are much like a good offensive lineman in American football.
Their worth will never be acknowledged until you either don't have them or they falter.
Hopefully after reading this tribute you will have a new found appreciation for your window blinds and will also feel compelled to thank them for their dedication to your home.
If you are still questioning the greatness of blinds, try living in house without them.
