(too much) Alcohol and Music don’t mix

I will try not to be preachy or sanctimonious; and for some people a moderate amount of booze is plenty…went to a jam last night…one of the guitarists had IMO too much to drink…at the very least I was annoyed…he seems to be a nice person, and I do appreciate his sense of (musical) adventure–we […]

Step Out into this Bright Day

You may often wonder why things have happened as they have. You may be full of personal regret for what you have done and left undone and you may also be full of blame toward others. But then we are left with this. Right now, you are standing where you are. The past is over, completely gone.

Can You Imagine a World…?

Can you imagine a world without music? Then be sure to enjoy music.

Can you imagine a world without color? Then be sure to enjoy color.

A world without laughter? A world without children? A world without fun?

Then enjoy everything.

Stress – the Wages of Fear

To the body, fear is a danger signal. The body doesn’t stop to examine whether or not the danger is real, or explore how it should respond to the possible danger. As far as it is concerned, there is a potential emergency, and for its own safety it automatically prepares itself for instant action. Heart rate quickens, blood pressure rises, breathing increases, muscles become tense, the skin begins to sweat, while digestion, reproduction, and other processes that will not be needed for the moment are turned down.

DEMOCRATS WOULD RATHER KILL THE UNBORN!

LIBERALS USED TO TRY TO TELL ME THERE WASN’T ANY CONNECTION TO THE BABIES KILLERS INCORPORATED, PLANNED PARENTHOOD! I GUESS THAT’S WHY THEY WERE ACTING LIKE RAVING LUNATICS WHEN THE REPUBLICANS PUT IN THE RIDER TO DE-FUNDED PLANNED PARENTHOOD! SO NOW IT’S OFFICIAL THE DEMOCRATS WANT MORE OF THE UNBORN TO BE SLAUGHTER AND THE […]

You Want Me To Wear High-Heeled Bifocals?

I got this e-mail from the director of the new play that I’m in:

I’m thinking Frosine would wear high-heeled shoes and would be very comfortable in them. In order for that to work, you may have to wear high-heeled shoes for all or most rehearsals. Is that do-able if we get high-heeled shoes that fit you? What’s your shoe size?

I can relax–a little

a friend of mine is having her album release concert in just over two weeks…the band had it’s first rehearsal this past evening…I met the bass player and drummer for the first time, they met each other for the first time…it sounded good to me…like I said, “We’re not gonna play the album, but we […]

The Art of Self-Acceptance

To love yourself means to accept yourself as you are and to come to terms with those aspects of yourself that you cannot change. It means to have self-respect, a positive self-image, and unconditional self-acceptance.

Masters of War. Masters of Poo?

I’ve never been much of a conspiracy theorist. Someone could give me lots and lots of evidence that the wars of today were engineered by a secret conspiracy within a hidden world government designed to keep the money flowing to the military-industrial complex, and I would still find it hard to believe. I tend to believe in Occam’s Razor, in other words, the simplest explanation for things is likely correct one.

Life is Our Miracle

Life is our miracle

Don’t let it slip away,

Open your heart to others

Give of yourself each day.
