I'm STILL a self confessing, self professing know-it-all, or so I think!

good is good and bad is bad

but you don’t know which one you had
she put your books out on the sidewalk
now they’re blowing ‘round
they won’t help you when you’re down
love’s on your list of things to do
to bring your good luck back to you
and if you think that everything’s unfair
would you care if you’re the last one standing there
and everytime you hear the rolling thunder
you turn around before the lightening strikes
and does it ever make you stop and wonder
if all your good times pass you byI don’t hold no mystery
bu I can show you how to turn the key
’cause all I know is where I started
so downhearted
and that’s not where you want to beand everytime you hear the rolling thunder
you turn around before the lightening strikes
and you could find a rock to crawl right under
if all your good times pass you by

when the day is done
and the world is sleeping
and the moon is on its way to shine
all your friends are gone
you thought were so worth keeping
you feel you don’t belong
and you don’t know why

and everytime you hear the rolling thunder
you turn around before the lightening strikes
well does it ever make you stop and wonder
if all your good times pass you by

when the day is done
and the world is sleeping
and the moon is on its way to shine shine
all your friends are gone
you thought were so worth keeping
you feel you don’t belong
neither do I

we do our time like pennies in a jar, what are we saving for?

waiting for our ship to come but our ship’s not coming back

so give me something to believe
’cause I am living just to breathe
and I need something more
to keep on breathing for
so give me something to believe

head and shoulders above the rest

… as if I wasn’t already, lol?! Saw this (Lowe’s Black Friday flyer) yesterday on RedFlagDeals which caught my eye; Werner 6 foot step ladder priced at $74.98 on sale for $24.98 … are you shittin’ me?!?! Now I know it ain’t their top of the line highest rated load capacity industrial usage models, you’re talking big bucks ($$$$) for those, but for my puttering around the house purposes, and the price ($50 off), who cares … it’ll suit me just fine spank you very much!! An early morning online check confirmed the sale price was already in their system (although it didn’t discount scan when I self serve check-out attempted – no matter; customer service to the rescue and all was rectified. Have y’all been reading lately how much I LOVE LOWE’S, lol?) so I didn’t even have to wait till Friday to get mine, ALWAYS one step ahead of y’all!! 😉

on the shelf ready to be snatched …

regular price …

ready to be taken home …

All in came to $28.23 with taxes – I know, eh?! Still scratching my head in good-deal-disbelief!!😯

with a devil in my heart and a shotgun in my hand you’re gonna lose this man

I said you’re gonna lose this man

I count my friends on these four fingers
who could ask for more
I said who could ask for more

sometimes you gotta let your feelings show
sometimes you gotta let those cold wind blow
who’s gonna pay the piper for the song he sings
and who’s gonna take some pity
on my lonely tired wings

my tired wings
my tired wings
my tired wings

➡ today’s 4:20

and I know the pieces fit ’cause I watched them fall away

the light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so
we cannot see to reach an end crippling our communication

and I know the pieces fit ’cause I watched them tumble down
no fault none to blame it doesn’t mean I don’t desire
to point the finger blame the other watch the temple topple over
to bring the pieces back together rediscover communication

the poetry that comes from the squaring off between
and the circling is worth it
finding beauty in the dissonance

there was a time that the pieces fit but I watched them fall away
mildewed and smouldering strangled by our coveting
I’ve done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing
doomed to crumble unless we grow and strengthen our communication

I know the pieces fit I know the pieces fit I know the pieces fit and I know the pieces fit

“all Daniels are bad” – Ana

… is what she said when she read my name off my AMEX as I was takin’ ‘vantage of their good customer loyalty program deal (told ya all I was gonna weasel my way in, lol) they were offering in conjunction with Lowe’s. She said it affectionately referring to her little rapscallion who shares my name, and her deep motherly love for him. And I AGREED with her … all of us ARE bad, lol. We continued talking – we both love the name Daniel … it truly is a beautiful name and one thing we both love is its uncommonness. Ana, thanks for that memorable little blip in my otherwise unforgettable day … something tells me your little Daniel is the man too, lol!! 😎

done

… it’s been a long haul … Christ, I bought those two toilets LAST summer … I’ve been sitting on them ever since, lol!! Went through too many to count potential renovators – but I’ll point out/name a few that come to mind. Ben, Stephen, Tony – all three of these cocksuckers committed to do the work, then last minute bailed – completely motherfucking unprofessional btw. AND, I still stand by my “if I ever see his work van, I’m chucking a brick through the windshield” words outta my pissed off mouth at the time regarding one (ain’t saying) who I feel COMPLETELY screwed me, wasting a waiting for your lying ass to show up day. Then came along Oswald – asshole … same story. Next up: Miro – who finally picked up his phone and after our talk asked me to email him with all the pertinent info – I did minutes later. Never heard back from him as he promised … well, not till 3 weeks later with lame-ass excuses, but still he had the nerve to ask me if I still wanted him to do the job … yeah motherfucker, as if … go fuck yourself!! Which finally brings me to my man the Hawk … dude was upfront from the get-go, said it was a 2 week job and it was. Said he could only work 1 week straight (the next week he’d be absent to finish another job), but that he’d return the following week to complete it … and he did – exactly as he said.  Hawk-eye arrived promptly at 8 a.m. and stayed till 5 or 6 o’clock … a few days he even stayed much later, was only one day he left earlier (3 o’clock), and only because he did all he could do. Nine long-ass days later – now he’s gone, and now it’s done!! All’s well that ends well … right motherfuckers, lol?!?!
