Oh Gosh, I don't do mornings very well and I wish that goddamn bird would shut the F*** up or just fly away. Hate feathery fanatics that have to sing..... it's Sunday December 16th. 2007 What a strange weekend already, attended a memorial for my girlfriend's sister (she was so young 58) we only met a few times. I remember the first time, my girlfriend dragging me off to see her because she wanted to know, who is dating her older sister. (strange word my girlfriend, she's a woman)
We arranged to meet at a coffee house in San Rafael "Muffin Mania" Felt like I was under a microscope "like some kind of virus" and I was yammering because I talk like that when I'm that nervous.
She listened while she looked me over and commented to her sister "he tells stories doesn't he" asked me a few questions more like an afterthought and finally said " OK you can date my sister" it was then that I became aware that had been holding my breath.
Like I said it was a very nice memorial and Shayne had made a DVD of pictures that chronicled both their lives to music. It was very impressive, I've got to get her to show me how it's done maybe put something similar on my web site http://www.blackfleet.org
She had family to deal with and sent me off with friends (we had discussed what I could do to help but her friends and family had it covered. I'd have been a third wheel so I was dismissed to attend a "Klingon Kristmas Karnage" gift exchange and feeding frenzy (no costumes)
Was still wearing a suit when I arrived at the gathering and everyone commented that it was supposed to be a casual affair, I had to explain that if your at a memorial you have to dress up to show respect. A couple of the ladies complimented that I clean up fairly nice, then handed me a glass of wine and commenced to schmooze the night away.
Had to answer questions as to why my lady wasn't at the party.... I called her on my cell phone to let her know I'd rather be with her, but she had to tell me they where off to have dinner at a restaurant. Will talk tomorrow she promised and thanked me for everything, saying that everyone appreciated that I dressed up for it. I could hear a smile in her voice that told me I'd made points.
Phone messages from last night asking if I'd like to attend a gathering in San Jose and another to see a film "I am Legend" in San Francisco. I'd rather just sleep in but it was already 8am and besides it would ruin my internal clock to pick up another bad habit.
Good Morning Already
