Day 3




What a shithead. I already flake out on Day 2. Anyway, yesterday was a typical Friday. Nothing special. I did pick a couple things up at Ye Olde Thrift Shoppe. A cool Boston Pops album conducted by John Williams highlighting movie music called "Aisle Seat". It reminds me of those PBS specials I watched as a kid with The Boston Pops where I'd get excited when they did the music from "Star Wars" or "Raiders Of The Lost Ark". The whole time, not realizing that John Williams wrote all that shit. Plus it's got a bad rendition of E.T. on the album cover. How cool is that?




I also picked up a copy of "Tender Years" by George Jones and "Greatest Hits" by Gordon Lightfoot, but I'm being called to do dishes, so I have to fly. More tomorrow. I have a wedding tonight. Lots of fun for someone who doesn't really drink. That, my friends, is sarcasm...

Day 1

So, I got to talking to a friend last night at the Brewer game (who are again in first place and poised to either win the division or break my heart another three times in the next month) and I got a little depressed when I realized how long it had been since I'd written. Anything. Fiction, non fiction, memoirs, fictionalized memoirs.....anything! So, I thought I'd try to write a little something every day for the next year. Obviously, I won't be able to write every day. Some days I'll be out of town and unable to access the intraweb. Some days you'll read some really boring shit. It's a slice of life. Rants most likely. Once I get the hang of this, I'll post some pics and try to link to music (if I can figure that shit out). I have a blog also at my myspace page and will probably just mirror that blog to this one. Or maybe not. Hell, we'll see. So, if anybody can give me pointers on how to not make this whole experiment blow, let me know.
