Well — turkey day has come and gone and now all of you people with real jobs and higher education responsibilities have been forced to rise out of your beds and return to your daily grind. I, on the other hand, have been blessed with a beautiful virtual Saturday – which may actually draw me outside to continue the construction of the monolith in the front yard…Actually, the trees are still clutching to several lifeless leaves – so I may put off the backbreaking blister wreaking chore for another week…
For now I have already taken care of some menial tasks — laundry is spinning – grocery shopping has been performed…assorted other tasks too daunting to be performed while slaving away behind the line as you gobbled and frolicked with your time off…I found out last night that Rachel and Stevie-boy were in town for the holidays — present at the manna’s party the other night – which I couldn’t attend because I had to be up at the buttcrack of dawn on your weekend. Oh well…There’s always that next holiday.
For my part – the day off I had – the actual TurkeyFest itself – led me to my auntie and uncle’s house in Alpharetta — where I was beaten twice by my cousin in Playstation NCAA football…Food was good…Exhausting. Later that evening I attended the farkle fest at the Hogan home…The Stubb sisters were there…Beautiful as always…
I also managed to attend something called the 941 Consortium on Saturday night…Hosted by a coworker — it boils down to something of an art party featuring local performers…Small, intimate — about a crowd of 30 gathered for a free feast, imbibed beverages and enjoyed the performances of a singer/songwriter from Chicago, a 5 minute movie, and a skit derived from Hurly Burly…It was impressive enough that I talked it over with the boys and we’re gonna go ahead and put something together for the next event…It’ll be the first “gig” in quite some time…
As for the rest of the day – I think I’m gonna sit back and work on mixing down a couple of songs — amongst which will be Snake in the Grass – from back in the High School Glory Days of the Johnny Gloves…That’s done mainly for the benefit of my homies out West…Word to DAAAAAAANNN, Bruisee and Brother Love!
That should be up later…I’m out for now… — Andy the exterminator just showed up and I’m sure he’s got some entertaining tails tales to share…
P.S. It’s World AIDS Day — Educate your mind

I’m 60 ft. long from my head to my tail……
and remember, I’m not the only one smoking the grass
