Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. And you may quote me.
Well, I've wrestled with reality for 35 years, Doctor, and I'm happy to state I finally won out over it.

when you wake up with a storming hangover and the terrible fear of what you may or may not have said or done during the missing moments of the previous evening (checked phone sent texts - a minor miracle, nothing to shame me there) there is one thing gauranteed to make it all better.. stumbling accross a film you dearly love... karma today says i'm not such a bad person after all.. and jimmy stewart gently makes my day with a few choice words
added to this last night, i put something together that could very easily have been, from some angles, a dissapoinment... it's hard watching quality bands play to small or disinterested audiences... but, it wasn't.. it was actually a wonderful evening shared with a good number of people... and it didn't stop with the bands... the place i now work is finally becoming the place i always felt it could be
it almost makes up for the set back currently in force on the project closest to my heart
i'm feeling a little too content with everything at this moment, this is dangerous of course, as we speak i can feel the sword of damocles poised to fall, one big crushing blow to punish me for daring to feel comfortable, maybe even a little optimistic... i feel we should open a book on what form this cataclysm will take... answers on a postcard
i wonder if anyone actually reads these, it does seem a strange thing for people to do, then again, people are nosey so & sos
if you do, don't be mistaken by the tone of the above... i'm still woe.. it's just that sunday is a day of rest
