Who sings that song, "Time keeps on slippin...into the future?" Was it Britney Spears? Pink Floyd? I've been thinking alot lately about time, and how fucking fast it goes by. Now, I know there have been many times when it seemed to creep as slow as the line in the Golden Corral on a Sunday, but for the most part, it flies by and before we know it, we have kids who don't know who Maddonna is. Now that I work with old people at the end of their lives, I have grown a much greater appreciation for life and time. I can't help but think about myself sitting in a wheelchair in an assisted living center, if my kids can afford it, withering away with 100 other old people who feel like today could be the last day of their lives. One day I'll go into detail about my experiences there, and the stories I've been told. Again, I am tired and my uncomfortable bed is seducing me into it. But I needed to get this off my old, wrinkly chest. Thanks for reading.
p.s. I'm also addicted to dark beer, black coffee, and good,dark company.
Yours,

Is that a hint that I need to get a tan? I'm trying to get to the beach, man, give a girl a break!
Also, I hope you you were joking about the B. Spears, Pink Floyd thing. Anyone who remembers Maddonna should be able to remember
Feed the babies
Who don't have enough to eat
Shoe the children
With no shoes on their feet
House the people
Livin' in the street
Oh, oh, there a solution.
Time keeps on slippin'...
Steve Miller Band, baby.
