Ok, the song in the head is easy today…
So, there I sat… minding my own business on a day when the kids were at school, my wife was at work and I was on vacation. I had mowed the lawn, and decided to check Facebook. A fraternity brother sent me a message that said to call him. So I did.
They’re getting the band back together and we’re going on tour.
We’ll not really, but it sure seems like it. A group of 16 guys are getting together at a cabin in Idaho, and I’ve been invited to tag along. There’s a lot of work to be done between now and then, and my hopes of going to see the Sounders play tonight at Qwest Field are shot, but I think I can make it. Today’s song of the day is Chris Rea, Road To Hell, in honor of my pending drive east to Lake Coeur d’Alene.
Remember last time when I mentioned I’d been fixated on some things? Well, that manifested today in a big way as I mowed the lawn. I noticed that there were a few buttercup vines winding their way through my front lawn and decided to get rid of them. Well, an hour and a half later I had cleared about a ten foot square in my front yard of all buttercup vines (unfortunately most roots survived). I kept looking at my watch and saying, “Five more minutes.” Ugh! That’s not as bad as what I did on Friday and Saturday (ya, what a way to spend the Fourth) I pulled roots and roots of morning glory from the garden bed in front of our souther fence. It looks great now, but I think my wife was hoping for a little more than what I was able to accomplish.
