    The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living

    (My beloved wife is off at Burning Man for the next 9 days. Your regularly scheduled dormant music news blog will be inturrupted by upates meant for her on the long shot that she'll find web access on the playa.)

    Hey cabbage -- I hope you are having a grand time and staying hydrated. I haven't seen you yet on Current TV's burning man coverage, but I still have hope.

    Nuttin' big happening 'round here. I faxed off the misssing-and-damaged expenses this morning, I'm going to FedEx the moving expenses this afternoon. And speaking of checks -- I wrote the one I was suppossed to and as an added bonus I wrote the rent cheeck and paid directTv online.

    It's an exciting life, I know.

    After you go
    I can catch upon my reading
    after you go
    I'll have a lot more time for sleeping
    and when you're gone
    it looks like things are going to be a lot easier
    life will be a breeze you know


    I really should be glad
    but I'm bluer than blue
    sadder than sad
    you're the only life this empty room has ever had
    life without is going to be
    bluer than blue

    after you go
    I'll have a lot more room in my closet
    after you go
    I'll stay out all night if I feel like it
    and when you're gone
    I could run through the house screaming
    and no one will ever hear me

    I really should be glad
    but I'm bluer than blue
    sadder than sad
    you're the only life this empty room has ever had
    life without you is going to be
    bluer than blue

    I don't have to miss no t.v. shows
    I can start my whole life over
    change the numbers on my telephone
    but the nights will sure be colder

    and I'm bluer than blue
    sadder than sad
    you're the only life this empty room has ever had
    life without you is going to be
    bluer than blue
    bluer than blue
    bluer than blue

    i exaggerate, of course. Havee ann aweesomee time!

    xxoo -- RR

    It Pays My Way, But It Corrodes My Soul

    (My beloved wife is off at Burning Man for the next 9 days. Your regularly scheduled dormant music news blog will be inturrupted by upates meant for her on the long shot that she'll find web access on the playa.)

    Hey cabbage -- while you were out in the desert doing artful things and trading a Night In Rosebud for the use of an electric bike I was at home trying to launch the stores. Here's an artful pic of me in action, taken with the thermal camera effect of my MacBook Pro:



    I didn't even crawl into bed until 4:30 a.m. I had some toquitos as a midnight snack.

    And since I parked in the driveway, I didn't even see or think of the garrbage cans until I heard the truck come in the morning. Damn.

    I hope you are having a blast. I miss you much.
