A funny thing happened.....

when Mikey was about 18 months old we decided to play around on the couch while my wife was away. I would lay on the floor parrallel to the couch and he would jump off onto my stomach. I would then throw he back up laughing and making siily noises. Of course, this went on for some time and after a while he just sat up there. I called him and he didnt say anything. Just then he jumped onto my balls right on the General and Majors. Thats not the bad part. I noticed a fowl smell of something only my wife could cook for Sunday dinner. No, it was Mikey....I knew it. I told him to lay on the couch and I would somehow call a nieghbor to come and change his diaper. I opened the diaper and it was all small balls. Those are the ones that smell bad. Sure they are easy to clean up but they pack a Tyson punch of a smell. So I decided to clean it myself.Quick wipe fold it up and on with the "Quality" time. Mikey jumped I threw, Mikey jumpded I threw and again he didnt jump. I called him from the floor and he peaked over the ridge. He was laughing in a cunning way. So I started to laugh really loud to make him laugh really load. As soon as I opened my mouth really wide. He decided to throw one of those balls I talked about right into my wide open mouth. Needless to say it took me a while to figure out what was stuff in the back of my mouth. I hucked that thing way up in the air and to this day I dont know where it went. Onthe way out of my mouth my two front teeth scraped the ball and I had poop shavings stuck to them. I ran into the bathrrom and brushed my teeth (with my wifes tooth brush). To this day I tell customers when I have time to talk an I always call Mikey after and ask him if he remembers.......

Deleted old post--- Bought 60th Anniversary Strat!!!




Ok I am all done being low and negative. I deleted the last post if anyone read it. I went out and bought a 60th Anniversay Strat. Lovely piece. Sounds awsome and great old school sunburst. I still think my Telecaster is nicer but thiss one seems to fit me a little better. My hand feels really comfortable playing it. The fret board finish isnt what I was looking for and I was in between this one and one with a neck like my Telecaster. I always wanted a Strat and now I guess I have one and I am sitting with it now in my office. Here is a picture of it (above). I am a worse spender than Rachel Fuller or Sherry. Sherry is going to kill me or cost me. I will post the outcome soon......michael ;)
Now as I think about what I have and how good I feel I find out that a great Blogger's Mum has past away. Neil has always brightened up my days when I feel down. For some reason when things are bad at work or home I will click on his site and after I read it and download his songs I forget my troubles. Now he has troubles and I hope that what I have written to him will brighten up his day during these dark times. Neil my prayers are with you and I hope you recover quickly from this sad time. Please dont look at drugs to ease the pain. I tried that and it wont work....

My new 52 Tele and Flying Pete..






Now I have something to do other than work... I mean my life is still boring and busy at the same time. When you work so many hours and soooo many days streight with no days off for weeks I seem to lose the ability to figure out what to do when I have time off. I lose touch with family and the outside world. There is so much to do in the world and I have to figure out what is important. I wont say how much I made in May but its a lot, but I dont know what to do. Im too tired to go buy anything(except another Guitar) Which reminds me Im going out to buy one now.... I will repost what I bought...Fuck It....
Ok I just got back. I just bought a 1952 Fender Telecaster in Butterscotch. What a nice piece. Now I am happy. See how your mood changes when you spend spend spend..... :)
I know Pete used it on Psychoderelict tour (I think) here is what it looks like above...Thanks again Pete....
Now I cant complain about Sherry and her handbags and shoes........ Also here is a pic of Pete that I use as my email signature. I get so many comments from the peopel at the banks....now they are using it...

Time is Passing.....

And I mean Time is Passing..... I can't believe I haven't posted since the 15th of May. I am so pissed, not for just posting but I can't remember what I did. I have been so fucking busy, between work, getting the house ready to sell and life in general. I havent had a day off in 25 or so days. My partner whom I have worked with for 3 1/2 years quit so now I handle the whole subprime department. I don't mind that I can handle that, but they think I should be able to take time off because they are in the weeds. Believe me I am making money and they tell me "Oh your going to make more in 1 month than people make in a year" Who gives a shit. Sure it will be a lot and it will be for 4 more months but last time I went thru this I ended up in the hospital. Sherry knows that and she is worried. Blogging to me is an escape to communicate with the people I like. People that have the same interests as I do, like Gary, Sully, Koos, Marrietta, Deb and so on. I like these peopel they are nice people to chat with. We have the same interests and concerns. People in the automotive sales industry are so money driven it gets sickning. Im not saying they arent nice people. They are but they forget whats most important sometimes. I do what I do best because I dont think about the money. The money comes from doing the hard work. I dont know Im just confused and tired, very tired. Tonight I am going to play my Gibson J185 and my Gretsch. That will help me......
