Here we go again!

Hurricane FAY is on her way to pound Florida.

Time to review what I have learned
from all the hurricanes we have experienced down here.

1.) This is no time to panic!

and

2.) There is always a chance that we will all die!

Ha!

According to the McAfee Site Advisor,

http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/denofmusic.com

I am clean, free and no significant problems.

So come on in.
Enjoy the show.
Hear the music.

It won’t hurt or anything.
Except maybe some feelings of nausea
and a slight intestinal discomfort.

But besides that,
I’m sure it’s alright.

So come on!
Grab a drink and click around.

A couple of weeks ago,
Abbie blogged about her realization of being (old) “older”.

Read about it here.

You know,
I too had this epiphany not too long ago.

It’s not because I refer to the young kids as “young kids.”
It’s not because I can’t stand the “young kids” of today.
It’s not because I have adult responsibilities now.
It’s not because I mumble a lot when I’m alone.
It’s not because I go to bed very early.
Or had to get some nap time.

I had this revelation,
when I got home from work one day,
and I opened my bag,

And I saw about a dozen different kinds of medications in there.

Meds for:
Headaches, Migraines, Flu, Antacids, Cough, Colds, Wound Care, Sugar Level, Upset Stomach, Nausea, Gas, Diarrhea, Flatulence…..

Geez,
No wonder I am always Grumpy.

And where the hell is my Ambien????

A very close friend of mine in the Philippines
is in critical condition at this very moment.

Thoughts and prayers are the only things I can offer.
As I sit here, staring at this screen,
I really do not know what to think, or what to do.

I really don’t know.

“Helpless” would be the right word for it.

It’s not about me being very helpless,
it’s about me, not being able to help.

It’s the price you pay,
when your loved ones are far away.

Actually,
I think it’s more of,

It’s the price you pay,
when you decided to be far away.

I guess that’s it.

We’re all moved to a new house.

I have moved so many times in my life,
I really don’t care anymore.

But this time,
I have learned two important things.

First.
If I move again,
Someone’s going to have to shoot me.

Second,
If I move again,
I am going to have to shoot me.

I know, I know.
I say that all the time.

Okay, maybe when I say “shoot,”
I meant kick me in the “nards.”

Last week,
I learned two(2) new words.

1.) Bluetool
and
2.) Shindig

According to the urbandictionary.com,

A Bluetool is a person who wears a bluetooth wireless earpiece everywhere they go to seem trendy and important.

–(I am surrounded by these people.)

And a Shindig is a party of get-together of some sort.

–(Only way redneck-ified.)

So, to use these two words together,

“Holy Freakin’ Crap! Everywhere you go in this town,
is like you’re in a Shindig full of Bluetools!

I had my eyes on this for so long:

Guitar Link

Now,
I have my eyes on this one:

Guitar Link

Because I tried one last night
at the store for the first time.
And apparently,
(After a couple of tries)

I ROCK!

I was Rockin’ like Amadeus!

One thing I learned though,
I must have used my pinky finger a lot more playing that game
than actually playing a real guitar.

And I also want to apologize to that 10 year old kid
who was waiting for his turn.

I would have let him play,
but he was laughing at me.

That little shit!

“THERE IS A FINE DIFFERENCE OF PERSPECTIVE
BETWEEN GETTING INVOLVED AND BEING COMMITTED.

IN HAM AND EGGS,
THE CHICKEN IS INVOLVED,
BUT THE PIG IS COMMITTED.”

Lesson — Don’t be a PIG!

My friend Maita,
forwarded me this.

I don’t know why,
but it really made me laugh too.

It’s a pretty good life lesson, I believe.

Man, I was actually going to write something here.
But I just ended up deleting what I started,
and never finished.

I came pretty close though.

It was nothing fancy.
Just a bunch of nonsense.

Although I realized,
that I shouldn’t update this site
when I had a bad day.

Because today..
this day..
it sucked.

It sucked ass!

I’m going to bed.

We’ll see how it goes tomorrow.

I just realized,
I have been writing Christmas as Xmas.

Granted I am lazy,
but I do not even know
how and when that started.

I just started writing Christmas as X-mas.

I have unknowingly removed what that X stood for.

Maybe that could be my first step.
Maybe that is the remedy to my dilemma.

Something needs to change here.

We’ll see.

Happy Christmas to all!
