Styx

I've been thinking about Styx lately. So much of my high school and later years were spent listening to them, feeling good when I listened to them. I remembered the Paradise Theatre concert. I rate that album (cd for you young people) in my all time top 10. The concert was wonderful but something bad happened with the band's flight or bus. They were 2 hours late. The warm up band played for an extra hour but there was still an hour of nothing but beach ball tossing and lots of crappy nachos n cheese. Styx cared about the concert goers though and gave us a free record, which we could pick up that very night. I can't remember if I got the Pieces of Eight album or the Grand Allusion album but I loved both.

I know every word to at least a dozen styx songs and I'll sing them upon request.....lol......

Insomniacs everywhere

Tomorrow's Wednesday. I hate Wednesday. I am awake again. My computer reflects 12:22 a.m. as the time but I know it's after one. I feel stressed and upset, unsettled. How long will it take me to be un-unsettled? Don't know since he won't say.

Just a quick update

I should be asleep, it's 12:18 a.m., but I slept about 5 hours today. I've had some kind of bizarre germ invasion which carries an odd collection of symptoms - sinus gunk, stomach cramps, body aches, headache, fever, cough. My girls also worked through the same symptoms, over a 2-3 week period. I thought I had missed it entirely but it was just waiting to POUNCE when I turned my back.

Anyway, Jerry and Emmy came to visit this weekend and they went to Chloe's dance competition with us. Chloe received the "Great Potential" award but did not make the overall awards because the Aeriolette Dance Academy ran the entire overalls, getting 1st-5th place. Chloe was upset about this and cried a little but I was proud of her.
