Greetings once again from your friendly neighborhood DJ. Spring is
coming soon, so I better get going on finishing out these winter
editions of random thoughts (like it really matters what time of year it
is, but anyway...). Here you go with another onslaught of randomness
from yours truly:
- Like this blog entry's title suggests, can
you believe that March is here already? This year is going by fast. I
just hope not TOO fast.
- I want to wish happy birthdays to my
friends Daryl, Spirit, Jack, and Kristin. I'm sorry I wasn't able to
make birthday celebrations this year (for various reasons), but I hope
you had or have fun celebrating them.
- Speaking of birthday
celebrations, one I do not plan on missing whatsoever is my own. My
birthday is next month (April) on the 9th, but I plan on celebrating it
on the following Saturday night, the 11th. And even though I'm turning
37 (yes, I'm getting on in years), I'm looking forward to my b-day this
year. Last year a friend of mine took me out for dinner (a steak dinner
which was very good) and then celebrated and danced at the OC the rest
of the evening. Right now I have a very rudimentary idea what I'd like
to do, but I'm open to ideas so if anybody here has some, let's talk.
- Onslaught....rudimentary....wow, I know big fancy words. Sometimes I even impress myself....sometimes.
- Because of the dramatic weather changes over the past few days, I
haven't been feeling the utmost in health. However, at the last minute
yesterday evening, I decided to go out. It was yet another different
crowd at the OC. I went there not in the greatest of moods and feeling
somewhat ill but once there I started feeling better (mood and
health-wise) and had some fun. I am glad I was close to home just in
case, so that may have factored into it a bit.
- I have to
admit, I did not see the Kellen Winslow trade to Tampa Bay coming
whatsoever. I can see compelling reasons for the trade but it did come
as a shock. I guess Mangini is determined to put a stamp on the Browns
and I can only guess what he's going to do next. I just hope this all
works out for Cleveland, but on the surface this looke like a good thing
to me.
- I finally found a version of the movie "Breakin'" last
week, and even though there is cheesiness and a formulaic storyline, I
still love that movie. Can you believe it's the 25th anniversary of
this movie's release? I can't believe it's been around that long. I
guess it's timeless.
- Can you also believe that it's not butter? Just sayin'
- Song on repeat and possible sign of the Apocalypse: "Little
Moments" by Brad Paisley. An acquaintance of mine gave me this song a
few years back and I only started listening to it recently. It's
actually a pretty romantic song, and even though this may signal the end
of the world as we know it with me listening to a country song
regularly, I like it regardless.
- SLP this week for the
following: Pastor Cory, the birthday people from the earlier blurb,
Dave, Jay, Art, Curtiss, Holly, Xavier, Trish, Dani (BTW, I hope you're
doing alright...sounded like you had a rough week..get in touch with me
when you get the chance), and one particular female friend of mine who I
want to reassure that things will turn out alright and good things will
happen for you (it's Vaughn's friend at the club...I can't remember her
name for the life of me and it's on the tip of my tongue but if anybody
remembers it, please tell me through the mail here...it's embarrassing
enough that I have trouble remembering names sometimes...god, I hate
that).
Now, before I lose any more brain cells for using big
words, shoot myself in the foot for my embarassments, or ensure the
Apocalypse by next picking banjo or polka music to listen to repeatedly,
I think I'd better end the random thoughts here for now. Spring will
be here soon enough, but for those of you on the east coast in the next
few days, please take precautions because it looks like you've got a big
snowstorm coming akin to the one we had here last year that dumped a
ton of snow here. I'm just happy we're not getting that storm right
now. Take care and God Bless.
