Some Stuff Should Be Forgotten (Explored November 22/09)

There are some things in my life that I regret:

 

1) Telling my aging father that he had to wear oven mitts when he was at the keyboard to avoid getting a computer virus.

 

2) Making loud retching noises in the theater during the concluding scenes of "Titanic."

 

2a) ...and Love Story...

 

2b)...and Terms of Endearment...

 

3) Attempting to convince a second hand book store owner that I had an inoperable brain tumor so he would give me a discount on the pile of Man from UNCLE and Tarzan books I wanted to purchase.

 

4) Going to a Halloween party in 1983 as a James Dean AFTER the car crash, when it was apparent I was the only one who thought it was funny, and subsequently totally blowing my one and only chance with the babe from 4C who turned out to be a major James Dean fan. Who knew?

 

5) ...okay...most of 1983.

 

But I don't regret a stolen second spent in this automotive graveyard in a little town outside of Edmonton.

 

That's where this sweetie is currently waiting for a new owner to make her shine again...or the wrecking ball.

 

Still working hard on The Novel. Into the second draft...and I SHOULD be working on it now...but...y'know.
