I survived April Fools Day unscathed. WXRT got me last year good with that ELO brunch business. D'oh! I was really looking forward to an Electric Light Brunch every Sunday after Breakfast with the Beatles. I had a nice chuckle, though, over the email from Redbox advertising the launch of new lunch meat dispensers and also the maxi tube dress offer from Urban Outfitters. It didn't have a place to free one's arms and they were kept under wraps under the dress. Silliness. I wonder how many folks fell for it?
A young lady approached me at work today and said, "I just wanted to give this to you and say thanks." It was a little card. I thanked her and she smiled and walked away. I opened it, and it was a bouquet of Hallmark flowers that said "Thank you" and inside was a handwritten note that read, "Thank you for your service! You are appreciated!" There was no signature and I did not recognize the girl who handed it to me. It was rather sweet, actually. A random act of kindness that I will be sure to pay forward somehow. I do wonder what the story is behind it, though. Hmmmm.
I am missing a friend DJing at a local bar tonight. The thought of sitting in a bar right now sounds so dreadful to me. Will I ever shake this funk of being a homebody?
On a far-out stretched note, I have been listening to this song again recently. I think it may just be the most perfect rock-n-roll delivery. Optimism, fun chord changes, and an explosively positive ending chorus:
'How does it feeeeeel to be loooooo-ooooo-oooooved?
How does it feeel to beeee looooo-oooo-ooooooved?'
Perfection.
