Livin it One Day at A Time

I should really be packing for my “Denver Excursion”. In fact, I’m sitting right next to my bag-o-goods, and all it has are my unmentionables as well as some socks.

It’s late.

Or barring that, I should be regaling the blog about my taking of the Xanadu DVD to work, and showing it to co-workers.

I think I have a convert. Or Two. I’m sure the words “How much did you pay for this?” and “Why exactly are they skating around to music?” are their tentative steps to the wonderful world that is Xanadu.

No. I won’t talk about that (until Saturday, at least).

No. I thought I’d talk about one of the dreams of my life. My ultimate dream.

To drive around an RV (Google defines RV as: short for Recreation Vehicle, a generic term for all pleasure vehicles which contain living accommodations. ) Taking snaps (aka photos) of the good ole US of A.

Look at those sleek trim lines. I must have one!

Some might laugh. Others might scoff at this dream. Oh how I pity their RVless existence. They won’t know what it’s like to drive around the US, staying nights at the WalMart parking lots (which will probably own the US by that time)

I plan on seeing every state. Guzzling up as much as possible. Hopefully by the time I buy my RV, they will run on something cheaper than the current Gas. Preferably dollar bills.

I can then say “I get 10 miles to the Washington” or “I get 50 miles to the Jefferson”.

Then, when I’ve seen all of the Continental US, it’s time to go see Hawaii!

Oh, I’m getting all verklempt!

I’ll give you a topic, Rhode Island. It’s neither a Road, nor an Island. Discuss!

I was leaving the casa when I saw him.

The Mailman. He was at our drop off.

I had to take off to work, or else I would have stalked him until he left.

Because today is the day.

I hurried through work, the only way a person, who knows he’s got only the BESTEST Worst MOVIE on the PLANET EARTH waiting for him.

I finally got home. I got to the drop off.

And there it was. A package, with a little Amazon.com smilie face on it.

I was all over it, like a pack of dogs on a three legged cat.

My hands were shakey. I had to wipe the sweat from my forehead. I eagerly ripped open the box, threw out the packing, and what appeared.

XANADU (oh, and Cloak and Dagger and a Sheri Austin CD).

Well, Internets, I must go. DVD to watch, and watch, and watch.

Oh, and then pack for the U2 concert.

Woo!

Xaannnaddu!

I have been trying to write an entry. I’ve written it a few times so far.

It’s just not up to snuff.

So I’ll just quote John Lennon

“Life is what happens to you while you are busy making other plans. ”

That sums up my life pretty well right now.

Maybe some day I can get the other entry posted..

When I was driving to the land of Zion (Utah for those of you not from Utah), I had a lot of time for introspection.

Well, I had a lot of time while I wasn’t singing my guts out to the likes of Ben Folds, BNL, BFS, U2, and all my other band friends.

But I digress.

In those few minutes of quiet, I had a kid memory. You know those memories. You just get a small flashback of what happened when you were a kid. Talking with a loved grandparent. Playing with siblings. Throwing away dinner in the garbage, and thinking your parents wouldn’t find out (Hi Dad!). Lighting matches, blowing them out, throwing them down vents and causing your mom to call the fire department, then admitting to it fifteen years later (Hi Mom!).

Not that I would know anything about those incidents, and I will deny them up and down if you ask. So don’t ask, because it didn’t happen.

Anyways, one of those memories hit me while I was driving. I remember reading a book called

Leo the Late Bloomer

I don’t remember if this was at school, or at home. It made an impact on me back in first grade.

It made an impact on me now. I’ve been impatient. I deal with feelings of being a late bloomer. I have felt the promptings that I just need to be patient, and all things will happen in due time.

But I don’t want to wait.

But neither did Leo, and things worked out well for him, so I’ll continue to have faith that I’ll turn out just like Leo.

In, what I am sure is to marshal in the Apocalypse, I just found out that Britney Spears is Expecting (a baby, I presume).

Excuse me while I start some serious repenting and food stockpiling.

Oh my Goodness. I was obsessing over Xanadu with by brother and a friend. After the typical amount of mockage that I get from said brother and said friend. I went looking.

I went looking for Xanadu.

I went looking for Xanadu on DVD.

And look what I found!

Xanadu@Amazon and Cloak And Dagger@Amazon.

I only need to spend like $1.09 for free shipping. Anyone want to find me some stickers?

Oh, today is a glorious day indeed! I won’t need my Xbox to Expose people to the wonder that is Xanadu!

Excuse me while I go cry with Joy…
