Today

Listening to "Bittersweet Symphony" which is just ending, performed live, the lead singer apparently has gone through a lot and singing the song on that occasion meant the world to him, now it's Pearl Jam with "Off He Goes" which is another song that hits me just a certain way.

It's going to be 70 today. Thats an all time high since I've been back from Arizona. I'm trying to decide if I'm in good enough shape to go on a motorcycle ride. I'd really like to, but I don't know how I'll be feeling in twenty minutes. I do need to get some food, and might ride out to Moes which is a TexMex place in Shrewsbury, I could do with a few tacos. 

Supposed to meet some friends for dinner. At the Picidilly Pub in Marloboro. I'm not sure if I'm up to that ride. Its about 30 minutes each way, and I don't actually have enough money to buy any of the food. The trick is, both these friends are really good friends, and they are both getting ready to go off for 16 month adventures - one to Korea to build two nuclear power plants, and one to Texas to start up a Helicopter school for the company he works for. To make it even better, they'll be flying to the Pic tonight via helicopter which they'll set down in a field next to it. No no, I should REALLY go. I just don't know if I'm up to it. 

I feel old and battered like a ship run up on the beach to be scrapped. We'll see what happens.
