Time to face the strange changes…

Posted By KJ ~ 22nd July 2009

David Bowie sang it much better than I, but everyone knows I’m much better looking.

Actually it’s long past the time to face the strange changes. And really, they’re not that strange and the change is only temporary, but I did have an excuse to use a cool David Bowie song as the title of my post.

So, I think…the wife is out of town…we’ll party it down…I get the entire bed to myself to stretch out in luxurious comfort and sprawl about as I wish. Perhaps I can use more than a 1 foot wide area of the bed. Woot!

We didn’t actually party it down at all. Mostly we (okay I) watched Heroes, the girls; as is their wont, stayed in their rooms and surfed the interwebs. Lots and lots of horrible Japanese porn no doubt and we pretty much ignored the vegetable section of the food pantry. “Hey Dad, let’s have burgers and fries for dinner!” “Hey Dad, lets have pizza for dinner!” “Hey Dad, my boyfriend and I are running away to St. Louis to start a punk band!” and the bed was used and I did sleep across it.  But only for a few hours a night.

All of the above is true except for one statement; well maybe two. Neither of the girls expressed an interest in moving east and starting a rock and roll band. Not that I’d mind that much. St. Louis isn’t that far away and in a few years, when we do actually hear something like that, well I”ll be prepared. Ha!

The darling bride comes back home tonight and I leave town tomorrow night myself. We’re a modern stone age family.

(Wow…that was kind of rambling. Don’t you think?)
