Gimmee a little latitude and rock to the Three Little Birds tune. I was dreaming when I wrote this, sue me if it goes astray:Originally Posted by Kahuna3
So . . . I've been back for a while now. Here's what's new at home:
- I got a good deal on a nice new computer
- Bea got the job she was looking for - I'm happy for her, but I miss her around the house during the day
- all my buddies are rockin' it on the beach in Negril - I'm happy for them
- I fixed a couple of things around the house and shoveled a pant-load of snow and chipped away at some ice,
- it snowed today and it's going down to -22C
- I plowed my way thru a couple of thick books - can I say 'thick' when I read on a kindle?
- I'm getting bored.
- I'm over the robbery
I looked out the window and saw the snow and wished I was in Negril, on the beach, with my buddies.
Hmmmm . . .
"Rise up this morning, frowned with the mounting snow. 3 old time buds reached out on cell phones . Singing sweet songs of c'mon man come back on down... This is our pleading to you oooo oooo.... Don't worry, about a thing... Next leg of the trip, gonna be alright....singing don't worry...about a thing ... The call of the ocean's too big to fight....
And so on like that....
Not trying to Weird Al a Marley Classic, but the story of friends in wait, a relentless Ontario winter , and the love story between Roland and Negril is beautiful theatre playing out live in front of so many who love him , most of whom have never met him.
Hope you go back if you are regrouped and ready. You have a whole lotta fans cheering you either way.
Miles to go before you sleep.
Bob Marley, Roland Reimer, Prince and Robert Frost all rolled up in one silly board post. Bam!
