The little things
Okay, I have to admit that I still have some 8 track tapes. Not many people know what those are anymore and it makes me a little sad, but whatever, I still have a few. Nothing to play them on though. So last night at my weekly Dimple therapy session I found a BubbleGum Hit Pack. I was so excited and could not wait to listen to it in the car. There are songs on there that haven’t been heard in years and some of those very same songs that were rediscovered last night are on a couple 8 tracks titled Super Bubble. Oh the memories from those songs. Roxane and I popped the cd in last night, turned it up and were happily singing the song Simple Simon from the 1910 Fruitgum Company. I can’t remember the last time I laughed that hard. We were getting the strangest looks from the people in the parking lot and at stop lights. But I like to think they were just jealous because we were having so much fun and they weren’t. It’s like listening to Proud Mary Tina Turner style and doing the dance as best as you can in the car. I had the biggest smile on my face last night on the drive home and into work. Bubble Gum music is highly recommended to put you in a good mood. You just can’t help but head bob while driving or do a little boogie in the car.

Yard Decorations
(pictures to come soon as it’s still in progress)
Yes, it’s that time of year again and I’m way excited. I am less a car payment this time so I can get a few extra Halloween goodies for the yard. I’m thinking maybe a strobe light for trick or treat night and putting that in the yard. Of course I will break out the creepy Midnight Syndicate music and try to keep Fabio mellow as the doorbell freaks him out (my poor little boy). I can’t wait to see the kids in their costumes and hopefully will not run out of candy this year. That wasn’t a bad thing though. I didn’t have any left to tempt me. This year I just might make another big pot of chili, ask pop to come over and hang out with me for a bit.

Finally understand
I wasn’t really being a bitch just because I could, but now some people are finally starting to understand why I was the way I was. They are now feeling the same way about certain things and I can relate, but I’m not giving them the grief that I got for being bitchy about those certain things. I just sympathize and listen. Funny how those things work out, and here they thought I was being a bitch for no reason.

The best is yet to
come?
I’ve been fairly quiet about this one as I’m not sure where it’s going to go. But the chosen few know all about it. I was introduced to Craig on Graffiti Night. He is a bread man as well and works at a couple different wineries on the weekends in the tasting rooms (I give him a hard time about the cute young barely dressed thangs that he sees and we joke about them). Yes he has a job!! He’s very laid back and easy going. Likes the same things I do and even makes music lists before he goes into Dimple or The Beat (not joking on that one). For those of you that know my music whore ways I do the same thing. In some ways he seems a little sheltered, but it’s cute the way he asks me to explain it to him. Then will look at me a little sideways after it’s explained but keeps an open mind. He’s older but in touch with his inner child. I’ve spent the last few weekends with him and he makes me laugh, he’s comfortable to be with, I don’t feel self conscious in any way around him. All my body issues, don’t even think about them. He collects hot wheels like I collect music and is just as picky about his hot wheels as I am music. He’s been accepted by Fabio (I was a little nervous about that one) and Craig understands that Fabio is my boy and like a child I do worry about him and want what’s best for him. He teases me about it a little, but he gets it. We’ve had conversations about why I was never married, had no kids. After I explained that I didn’t want to be a single mom (not knockin those who are, I know a few single moms who have done a phenomenal job raising their children) and that I would rather be alone than in a relationship and miserable. And we talked about why after 14 years of marriage they got divorced. I’m not getting my hopes up, but am not leary like the last few. I’m in a way neutral this time, which I guess is a good thing. It’s hard for me though to have a guy around helping me with stuff around the house. Like trimming up trees, yard work and other things. I’m used to doing a lot of stuff by myself or with a little help from family. Almost don’t know what to do with myself, but will figure it out. We talked about that too and how it’s going to take me a bit to adjust, but he’s going to have to adjust as well. I’m not the helpless little woman that he’s used to. It’s going to be a heck of a learning curve on both parts. Still not sure where it’s going but we will find out.
