. . ooo . . does that mean presents . . ? ?

Unless my sister has arranged for me to be the filling in a Jessica Alba/Jennifer Lawrence sandwich, probably no presents.

The weather guessers were wrong again. Yesterday the high was supposed to be 65, it made it to 70 in the afternoon. Today the high was supposed to be 68, it's already 73.

. . hey, Sister, Deb . . ! !

. . I gave up on that Easter Bunny guy long ago . . now I just buy my own presents . . usually things/plants for my garden . .

I think it's time to go looking for my birthday present to myself.

. . how's everyone . . . ? ?

Thanks. It really did just pop into my head last night while I was listening to the set list show on RM after work.

Speaking of which ... Jimmy's people already made the YouTube video private so if anybody wanted to grab it from there, too late.

I'd like to enjoy my weekend with the porch door open ... it's 33 blippin' degrees out. At least maybe today we won't have hours of graupel.

Good afternoon everyone. Sounds like we have a variety of weather, a lot of upcoming birthdays and a few rounds of coffee in so far. Kevin and I both have a work holiday so we are just hanging out. Problem is we have really bad colds so the day feels wasted.

I will get something done even if it darn near kills me. It's too hard for me to sit around

Afternoon BN

I had another one of 'those' nights...up until after 5 am.
UGH
I thought my sleep patterns had changed....guess not

Afternoon, y'all.

Think it's time to talk to my Dr.

My self-birthday present has been purchased. I'm not going to wrap it because the suspense just isn't there.

Whaddja get?

My birthday isn't for another 12 days so I probably should pretend I don't know.

I got the one on the left. And no, I don't know how to play, I've never played a note on the guitar in my life. I figured I don't play golf and there's only so much hot wings and beer I can have at Hooters so I needed a hobby.

Very nice, Larry.
Can't wait to hear your first song.

I've been thinking about doing this for a few years, it was time to stop thinking and do it. I wanted to get the sunburst but they didn't have one in stock and I didn't want to wait any longer. They had a black Fender acoustic but only in a more expensive model and since I'm about as much of a beginner as a beginner can be I didn't want to spend that much.

You going to take lessons?


I have a friend in Austin that gives lessons. Might be far to commute, but he is really good

I want to see if I can pick it up on my own first. I bought an instruction book that came with a chord chart and a DVD.

Good for you! Guys with guitars are chick magnets.

Can you read music?

The HOG don't need no guitar.

No I can't read music. I have enough trouble reading words.
