I fixed my wife's car. I feel pretty good about that. I mean, I'm not very good when it comes to cars. I understand how they work and all, but fixing them is another matter. I didn't build it, so I'm never sure what part has gone out without a little bit of help. However, I was able to replace parts and get the A/C working again. I feel like some sort of awesome singing mechanic. You know who made an awesome singing mechanic?




Bill Joel, that's who.

Back to me, I had a good day.  I've come to realize that I can't let every little thing get me down.  If I do, I won't realize how many good things I've got.  I mean, I have a wonderful family.  I have cookies.  Do I need more?  Maybe, but those are good enough for me.  Especially if they are chocolate and butterscotch chip cookies.  Then I love my wife even more for making them.  I could make them, but she has surpassed me in the desert...dessert...hmmm....I need to learn how to spell.  Well, in sweets and confectioneries, she has usurped me.  At least my vocabulary is still in pristine condition. 

Now that I feel like a man's man, getting dirty working on an automobile, I'm going to go geek out eating cheez-its, drinking root beer, and playing Final Fantasy.  I've been manly enough for one day.

Spend time with someone you care about.  You never know when you'll get another chance.  Live life to it's fullest.  Don't set your kitchen on fire.  Pancakes are delicious.  You can never drink enough root beer. I dislike bar chords.  Here is a song I was playing, but had to fudge a little because I can't quite do bar chords on my acoustic guitar.  Maybe it's the strings...maybe it's my hands.




"The Circle is Small" has nothing to do with anything, but that I like playing Gordon Lightfoot songs. I also enjoy listening to them. He's an awesome artist. I once listed him as my father on Facebook. Well, my rope burn hurts, so I'm going to sleep.
