a warm day in November

Yesterday Nancy,Dan and the kids went on a camping trip to Allair Park.My assignment was to take care of Bayou.I fed her,let her out and rubbed her belly.I also fed the fish.Man they were hungry.Thank god they're nor Piranhas!This morning I woke up at 8:15ish and let Bayou out and fed her.According to WOBM it was 50 degrees out.The troops arrived home about 9.I checked my email and posted on facebook that Id be heading to Rockin' Joes around 1pm.
En rout to Rockin' Joes I delivered a few Christmas mixes and nearby friends.I had a large coffee and a bagel with cream cheese and was hoping for Knight and KC to show up.No one!I didnt let it get me down.
I continued on and bought a color cartridge for the printer at Bordans and CD Jewel cases at Ocean County music.They got a Christmas mix too.I stop in at Thoughtful Treasures and convinced eloise to join me at The Longboard Grill for lunch!I had the classic slider with fries and she had an ice tea.We talked to Robert the chef there and he told me to stop in tomarrow and they would know for sure what time my gig was.
After lunch I walked back with here to the store and her husband had a few customers and things got busy so I left.
My last stop was Atomic CDs were Eric,the owner also received a Christmas mix.There was a trio outside the Green Planet coffee Shop.3 guys.2 Were playing accoustic Guitars and the other was on Sax.There were playing some jazz.They played Dave Brubecks Take five.I was impressed.I hung around for a few songs and my VERY last stop was a George and Beth Nicholas's and George and I had a quick beer before he had to leave to help a friend.I chatted with beth afterwords.at 4:30 it starts getting dark so my visit wasnt too long.That was a long but productive and fun day.

order shipped

My oldies.com order is on its way!
There was oviously a lack of communication on both sides.
I placed the order with a gift card and they called me saying it was rejected then I told then it was a gift card and that seemed to clear things up.I dont know how the process works but if the moneys in there and the numbers match how hard can it be?
When you place a credit card order it doesnt ask you if its a gift credit card and just gives you the choice of credit cards,visa, master and discovery.
I know folks who make purchases all the time by credit card on line with seldom if any problem and then I have a friend who account was tapped and suddenly he had thousands of dollars on his bill.lucky the cc company called him and got it straightened out but getting it squared away took weeks.
If I had a real credit card Id be knee deep in debt which is why I only deal in cash or check.It keeps me on a tight leash financially.
OK why an I up gabbin about this at 3am!3 cups of tea after 2 cans of beer.a second wind is here but I must go to bed so I can to tomorrow what I didn't do today.I did do a load of laundry though.
OK OK Goodnight!

The word of the week is BLAZING!

Tonight my cousin Cathy and Molly came over for pizza and beer and a little celebration of Molly's Birthday.We wound up watching Dancing with the stars.
The one Judge Named Len used the word blazing and it stuck with us all night.
I swear Len is a relative of Simon Calwell.Hes the mean.Some of the routines should have gotten a higher score.Im glad J.R and his Partner got a good score.
The Beer Pick of the night was Heineken.A little more expensive but Molly's worth it.I made her a custom mix and a Christmas mix and she isn't that keen on jazz but i told her its time to broaden her musical Horizons.Gotta get her out of that punk and alternative music scene,well perhaps just expand beyond it.
