The Essential 'Shot

"These are the contents of my head"

Wednesday - December 16

Wednesday, December 16, 2009

Hmmmm. Didja ever notice that life tends to get 'interesting' right about the time you think that you've got things all figured out?

As you may have read in earlier posts, I went on a date (or two or three) with a lovely young lady I met recently.

Strangely, right about that time, I received a most untypical spike in messages on the dating website(s) where my profile was posted. I've never been one to casually date, so I'm not planning on replying beyond perhaps a "thanks" type thing. But, to top it all off, my phone rang today and since the number didn't have a name attached to it (which would indicate that it was someone in my address book and thus someone I know/speak with), I didn't answer. However the number seemed vaguely familiar.

I figured if it was anything important, the calling party would leave a message. Moments later my phone chirped telling me that I had a new voice message.

Would anyone care to guess who it was?

Meanwhile... I went over to my friend Mark's house this evening to give him a guitar lesson. We had a grand time. I'm looking forward to the next 'lesson'.

ooooooooooh

I'm so glad your life is getting interesting (perhaps my problem is that I haven't gotten mine figured out yet?) I'll be able to live vicariously thru you. . .

. . .so, was it Santa's elf checking whether you were still on the "nice" list, or maybe informaing you that you've managed to get a transfer to the "naughty" side?

(if it was who I thought it might be, remember that "a bird in the hand is worth two - or more - in the bush")

Dang.
And I was going for the elf, too.

Or maybe it was a penguin! :-/

Ain't it funny how that works--when it rains it pours.....or when it snows it blizzards?

*flapping!!!*
