Friday has arrived!!!! What a great day Fridays are, specially come 5:00.
A few of us are going to go out to Black Mountain Inn tonight for drinks and maybe some snacks. Tomorrow Rose Lee has her semi-formal so I will stop by there and see her off. Hoping for some good weather this weekend, I really need to do some hiking, maybe a short hike to a lean-to on Sunday. It all depends on the weather. I also need to get Zappa used to hiking and working the trail. Not to mention MY fat, lazy, arse. Have a great weekend everyone. Be safe and give me a call or email me.

This is an older poem that is happier than it seems.

Nightmares are grinding my mind

alone without u
standing in a new/old town
looking for your hand
reading it from a papers distance

Articles on a distant city
I glance through the news to find
your voice.

it is familiar but lacking
the personality has been removed
and placed in tiny notebooks for
future reading

Good Thursday to you a’ll… one more day folks.
Been real busy here at work today. Had a couple meetings and with a couple people out there are many phone calls to answer and deal with. Sure do missing designing shows I tell ya. Hopefully soon enough. Well I will be changing over to my spaces for this blog so please add this address http://spaces.msn.com/members/Blogthisbuddy/ to your favorites so you can keep up with my daily crap. Sorry no poem today. I will try to get you a new tomorrow for the weekend. Have a great afternoon and evening ya’ll. Take care!!!!!

Hump day is here and the ice is stuck to my car.

Wow what a crazy morning, tons of ice. I moved my car this morning so it was closer to the back door and as I stopped, the car slid about two car lengths, good thing I had snow at the end of the driveway or I would have made it to the road. Another quiet day at work so far, a few people are working from home today due to the roads being so nasty. Watched Goonies (again) last night. Boy what a great movie. It brings back such great memories. Oh Chester Cooperpot you crazy cat you. Well for all of you who know… the ball is rolling.

Here is that new poem I promised yesterday. You can see some of my influences in this one. Enjoy ya’ll, hope all is well, and drive safely.

Pissing Match.

Can you image one?
What would that smell like?
It would only consist of the older
for this is not a young man’s game

Yellow ribbons thru the sky
old naked men pushing and shoving
with urine and pot bellies
filled with cheap beer

One gets hit in the eye
begins to stutter his step
another shot this time in the mouth
he is now in trouble and goes down

The winner is never just that
he must walk home no cab or bus
the cold weather now rips thru his
damp clothing and shivers begin

He arrives home to clean and burn
the fight has ended his journey
the loser feels the same as
the winner Runs empty alone

Welcome Blog readers.

Thanks for taking the time to read me today. Happy days are soon to come back to me…
Not a ton to say today. I have been testing another blog site that I think I like better. It has more options and looks much better, besides I can include photos easily. You can visit http://spaces.msn.com/members/Blogthisbuddy/ to check it out. I will most likely be switching to this site very soon and will only blog there. Please give me some feed back if you can. Again thanks for reading my non-sense when you can it means too much to me. Another new poem tomorrow, but for today you get a movie quote. Enjoy, take care, and be safe.
Peace ya’ll.

Principal: Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Burrrr, I think hell froze over last night cause I woke up in it. -2 on my way to work this morning, oh and by the way I did NOT want to go in today. Most people I know have the day off as it is a public holiday. Not me, not now, maybe next year right? I had a rather rough night yesterday as I just wanted to unwind but I had a house full of “guest” that I did not expect to return and stay the night. Oh-well just me being selfish. Chin up boy, it will all work out in the end. Sure if “in the end” is my death and “work out” you mean my coffin.

DONE.
Moving on, thanks for the great conversations this weekend. It was great to touch base with the outside world. I talked to two great friends and spent sometime with my family. So, I just want to thank you for that. Have a great week and be safe. Keep in touch, and give me a call or write me.

I wrote this poem on Friday. It may need some work, specially the ending but I thought I would share and see if I could get some sorta response. Thanks ya’ll.

Stuffed animals line the rear windshield of her Le Baron

She drives 5 minutes from her home
5 miles under the speed limit
her cats need food
her cats need litter

Her husband dead 5 years now
lies under the earth
lies under her chest
remains an important article within

she pulls into the parking lot
the grocery store is empty
9am Tuesday morning
only the housewives and
widows search for food

the wheel from her shopping
cart rattles across the pavement
she smiles at the bag boy with a
hairy upper lip and enters the store

Now I am really ready for something new. This old shoe has a few to many scars from misguided “friends.”
Watched a great movie last night, Grand Canyon. Wow, this movie was excellently written, directed, and edited. The acting was dam good too. Danny Glover was the best I have every seen him. Wow!!! If you get a chance to check it out please do, it will be worth it. Also got a great pie last night. First time having pizza from The Lucky Leprecon. Big pie too, we got The Little Italy Garden Pizza, hummmmmm lunch!

What has happen to this world yo. I remember back in the day when a friend would invite you over for a nice good time you would actually go and have a great time. It seems that in these parts that is not the thing to do. If say I invite a buddy of mine over to the house for pizza, wine, and a movie I would be told yea let me talk to my girlfriend (cause she wears the pant ya know) after talking to said girlfriend I was told that their other friend who asked them well after my invite is going to take them out to dinner and drinks. So my offer for dinner and drinks was completely disregarded and quickly expelled. Do I stink? Is my house not warm and inviting? The “friends” you call buds may not be your friend or bud, rather an acquaintance whom does not care of your wishes. I wash my hands of these people, I will do my work at work for what it is worth and venture on by myself. I have lived in this area alone long enough to know that I can easily do this without so called friends. Besides I have a friend that I can visit in 4 hours.

Sorry about all that but, this is a blog so, sometimes you are stuck with it. Have a great weekend everyone!!!! Miss ya’ll too much. Don’t forget I will be within cell phone range if you want to give me a call tonight and most of Saturday. Peace!

First off… Great Job Mr. Myers I am very proud of you. Also check your email yo.

Another quiet day here in the mountains. We did get some nasty rain last night but it was 45 deg. when I got up this morning so thankfully it did not freeze. Had lunch with the big guy yesterday at trappers, one of the three restaurants around here. Yummy meatloaf with baked potato, and veggies. Good stuff, not as good as my Moms but not bad. Had a nice conversation but didn’t really discuss anything important, just the usually BS. I will be working the GED this weekend so I will be spending Friday night at the fam’s, and no drinks. But I will try to call some of you, you know who you are. Well have a great weekend if I do not talk to you before hand. Be safe.

I may have posted this one before but I could not find it. Either way enjoy.

The taste of pure salt on my tongue

Not the water from deep oceans
not from the pretzel purchased
salt of tears, forgotten years

They flow revealing memories
of warm bodies lying without
cloth, light; without restrictions
without fear

You called my name miles from home
yet my heart ached.
your call was in vain, your soul was in pain
mine was doused in Novocain
