Good morning! It's 9:43 and 49 degrees on this pitiful Monday. Well, it's following a pitiful Sunday, so we're at least right on schedule. Thinking of the line life is a shit sandwich and every day is another bite. I'm not quite that cynical, but I've been bitten enough by life to see its grimy truth
The line that follows at least gives us hope. But the more bread you have, the less shit you taste. To me, this translates to a good night's sleep. It's at least a great buffer. You may still have a soul-crushing day on your hands, but you at least have a good cushion to break the fall.
Buddha's First Noble Truth, in modern terms..
I try and write something in here every day. So there's usually a blog to be read. But I don't always post them to Facebook. I figure people want most to hear about gigs and concerts, and since I'm not doing much of that right now, they may not be all that interested.
But I'm still a musician. And as such, am still committed to sharing what I do. Fortunately, that stays the same no matter what my current status may be. So that's my conundrum, my challenge: keeping my audience. And maybe even growing it. I still think about you guys, no matter how ensconced I am in the Ivory Tower.
So that's my two cents for today. Hoping to transcend the gloom of Monday and get into some musical trouble. As a former insomniac, I'm grateful for good sleep- especially on days like this, where it's really needed. Thanks as ever for stopping in and reading. Happy dismal Monday to you! For now, ich bin outa here. More later.
PS today's tune is one of my weirder pieces. It's called Squidward- and yes, it was inspired by Spongebob..
