November

I don't know about you but there's something about November I don't like. Maybe it's the time change, don't know. It is a month though to remember the one's who passed away especially the brave men and women who served and died for our country. It is also a month where my Dad passed away three years ago. I miss him very much. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think about him. He was a great man and I am the person I am today because of his values. It is also a month to celebrate my Mom and brother's birthday. Ever have a song that made you think about someone. I remember my sister saying to me way back when, that whenever she heard a U2 song she'd think of me, because she knew I loved the band. I was a fan of U2 from the very beginning when they started in 1979-80. Not too many people ever heard of the band at the time but I knew of them and loved them from the get start. Their 80's songs were the best songs as far as I'm concerned and then they became to commercial. I guess they had to do this to make themselves known worldwide. I know whenever I hear their old songs it reminds me of my first car, my Datzun 280Z. I drove that car just about everywhere in the city and I always made sure I had my U2 cassette. Wow, cassettes, I wonder if they're still around. Aside from listening to U2 I also listened to Led Zep, Def Leppard, The Rolling Stones, Billy Idol (remember him) etc..... Anyhow back to the present. It was a quite day today. It's funny how you go from working in an environment where you have contact with so many people and now to having a limited amount of communication with other people. It's a shocker, yet I feel more relaxed. The thing I miss is listening to Q92 while I was working. They play so much of the great songs from the 80's. Brings back alot of memories. Anyhow, I believe I said enough.
