So here I am on the 7th day of my sickness. I have a cold gone bad. Also one reason why I haven't blogged. Not to mention, I just haven't felt like I should be writing something. I get this feeling that I should be writing inspiring and funny and eventful. This past 7 days is anything but. I've been sick. I've been in bed. I skipped most of my obligations except for acupuncture and guitar lessons. Oh, I did manage to go to a meeting last nite and totally missed Jason Mraz on TRL. Speaking of which, did you know he was once married? I'm not sure if that's real or not. I read it in one of the postings on his message board (yeah, I'm weird like that). Anyway, that majorly bummed me out but I won't hold it against him. Also, why go on TRL? It's total bopper. I guess he's trying to get that crowd....which makes me even more sad. Oh well . . . Ok, totally sidetracked.....

I had my first guitar lesson last nite. It was a little frustrating since it's a half hour. How much can you do in a half hour? Really now. Tell me. Anyway, I'll make most of it. Practice like hell is after me. Put some songs together. Start planning on performing --however you start that. And see where it goes. I would love to be a "rock star." but really, that's not the goal (although it's great to dream it....which I often do --am I setting myself up for failure? I hope not. I'll try not to think too big or to think about it too often....tempting though). (ANYWAY)The goal is to be successful in whatever it is I'm destined to do and be happy doing it. I'm just looking at this as my journey to wherever. A start to something bigger and better that I, right now, cannot fathom. Keep on Keepin' on. It's like Marlon right (Finding Nemo). You do your best to find your son, or in my case, my destiny and jump the hurdles as you encounter them. Keeping fear as a way to keep safe but having a friend to keep your fear at bay and keeping you on track and on your way. Making more friends throughout the adventure and at the end finding out that you are stronger than you thought you were and are capable of doing more than you dared to think or dream.

Hold on to me
Hold on to me tightly
Don't let go for any reason
Don't let me fall
