The Barber Pole
Infinitely drawn to Old Barbershops.
Can't say it enough,
I was born in the wrong era.

Lost in the Ashen of Autumn
I Love F a l l with all my Heart.
(dislike urban winter with a passion)
Tonight in honor of the Season:
I'll be baking Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
and plopping on the nostalgic sounds of
The Great Pumpkin.
Love Monday
It's a blustery and chilly Fall day here in chicago,
makes me want to wear saddle shoes...
instead i'm wearing a cowboy shirt

The mountains are calling and I must go.
The man who talked to flowers and rocks:
Mr. John Muir
“In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.”
What a life story, so interconnected with nature.
love him.
The Game of Life
My Life is like a game of Jenga.
Continually building from the ground up.
Each block woven together, constructing a tower of strength?
Though in this game, parts (of me)
are pushed away, lifted off, pulled aside or so simply taken out.
Sooner than later the gaps start to grow weary,
testing those unsuspected points of strength.
Inevitably causing this self to
wobble and sway, striking anxiety and fear of toppling over.
Then you realize, sometimes you must fall.
And with that last piece you come barreling down,
startling those closest to you.
But...
the base-blocks of Jenga always survive,
the foundation of myself will always exist.
Gather those crumbled pieces and build again.

The Sinclair Family
FLASHBACK!
I adored this show as a kid.
I can't believe it completely slipped my mind till
NOW!

remember:
'Baby's favorite pastime is to hit Earl repeatedly over the head with a frying pan while shouting, "Not the mama!"
and his catch line... "I'm the Baby, Gotta Love Me".
enjoy the silly madness:
oh man how i wish i still had the McDonald's figurines i collected of
Earl, Fran, Robbie, Charlene and Baby.
Memories. Memories. Memories.
Thank you Jim Henson for all your creative genius and for shaping childhood memories.

I'm quick in a slow way
a somber line of canyons,
wild mustangs, clink of spurs, dry air.
whiskey fires the spirit,
causing moon-driven outbursts under that full majestic sky.

' Wha Happened? '
Mitch Cohen: You know, 35 years ago, preparing for a concert meant playing "find the cobra" with the hotel chambermaid.
Mitch Cohen: I feel ready for whatever the experience is that we will... take with us after the show. I'm sure it will be... an adventure... a voyage on this... magnificent vessel... into uncharted waters! What if we see sailfish... jumping... and flying across the magnificent orb of a setting sun?
