Long day not quite over

Just a quick post here from the ol Crackberry. This has not been one of those exciting days (or weeks for that matter) that pass quickly like when you're having fun. It's not even a question of there being plenty of work for me to do because there are things I could go ahead and get done before time, and things I need to take care of, but for some reason I am just distractable. This causes me to go out of my mind with some strange type of "self-inflicted boredom". Sounds crazy I know, but it's like I can't keep my mind on business or important issues. So I doodle around, getting necessary stuff done but daydreaming and clock watching way more than I need to. The funny thing is that I work well under pressure, so when I do this and it comes down to a crunch, I excel with flying colors but in seeing how easy it was to complete said mission, I think to myself, "why didn't I go ahead and get this done weeks ago??" I used to do it in school too. Wait ...

Black and Natural Life (WWC)

Sorry for the delay, I am finally posting my WWC for this week, just haven't been able to get to it. Words "Black" and "Natural Life". Yes I really should be spanked for taking so long on this, it's appalling... anyone?? anyone?? Just kidding. :) The WWC as always is brought to us by the not-so-black, but always natural and worldly Tink of Pickled Beef (see her for details if you wanna join! ) Well I'm late enough already, let's get right down to binnesss. Pictured above, a Mother in The Natural World. Blue and Black Photo, Picturesque Scene In The Natural World Modern World Collides With The Natural World. The Soil Is Almost Black In This Part Of The Natural World. Club Scene Barely Illuminated by Light, Looks Almost Black. My Mom Is Most Happy and At Peace In The Natural World. So there you have it... finally! Now, I have to play catch up and get to a possible entry for today. Thanks for being patient with your Aunt Jackie... now, go play outside i...

Dies Lunae

Semi-quick little weekend update(s): Saturday night's gig went off without a hitch on our part, and it was nice to get out for a change and hang at the Stage Stop , and hear some other bands too. As I may or may not have said, I elected to do a keyboardless set due to our time constraints and just to see how much more "relaxed" I could be and I really have to say that I enjoyed it immensely, so I might make some permanent changes. Of course not to leave keyboards out totally, but I might set-up next time where I can run over and play a song on the keys, and then have some where I just sing at the mic and can go back and forth instead of feeling awkward behind the keyhboard during a song where I don't play. So it was quite a late night, as it always tends to be when we gig, but I'm glad this week will be sort of a let up from last week's hectic schedule in preparation for the gig. I can take a deep breath and feel a little lighter (mentally speaking). Other tha...

To Whom It May Concern

(A Memo From Jimi) To Whom It May Concern [This means you... all of your self-absorbed, rude, greedy, thoughtless drivers on the roads and highways of this world full of increasingly endangered beauty and love for your fellow man]. What a gorgeous day it is. Just breathe in the delectable scents and flavors of nature and sunshine. Feel that cool, fresh air enter your lungs. Take the speed down a notch, enjoy the sights and sounds all around you in this multi-dimensional universe that you happen to be cruising your way through. Everywhere you look there is something to see... and if you listen closely, yes open up your ears, you can understand exactly what the birds are singing about. As the fish immerse themselves wholly in the rivers and the streams, and they swim bravely against the currant to where they know they must go, I blaze my trail, flames flying high, leaving my smoke signals behind me to lead the way. We could all arrive together in this majestic celebration. But you, all o...
