Not necessarily.  I'm 56 and in the past year I've gone from no music production to dozens of songs and an entire album released, and there's no end in sight! 

But it's not easy to pull off adding a new passion or changing your life up.. took me some sacrifices, heartache, and pain. 

 

iz the hurty i don't like.  isn't the good / fun hurty, like, otk party hurty.  tee hee

someone should invent a cane with an umbrella and cup holder attachment. lol  

is about time for a special pumpkin spice latte trip. 

I wish you could find a new fuzzy friend. Unconditional love helps all kindsa hurty.

Talked to a recruiter about a job back in Austin, working for Dell!  In the same division and position as my job at Dell 4 years ago!  Then, this afternoon is a phone interview with a medical device company in Cary, NC! Tomorrow a morning interview with a local company that makes airline ticket printing kiosks, then Friday afternoon a tallk with some folks in Erie, PA aboiut intelligent monitors for locomotive engines.

I got more tired just reading that.

I'd have preferred if that were multiple choice... 

1- This is just a wild guess, but working as a mild mannered office worker or something like that, by day... But by night you are a masked and possibly caped crime fighter?

2- No, there are a lot more numbers, 52 is pretty low on the chart, but if you are talking about life, then no also... There are infinite possibilities, possibly even an infinite number of parallel universes with an infinite number of you, and at least one of those universes has a caped crime fighting version of you, but there is never an "is this all there is" finality to life, unless you are about to get eaten by a bear, then maybe... but aside from that, generally no, because anything can happen at any moment that can change the future and bring you down a different road than the one you feel you are on.

3- The Prussian III Corps rear guard under the command of Lieutenant-General Baron Johann von Thielmann at the Battle of Wavre... Wait was there even a question about that?

 

Thielmann was on Napoleon's side at Borodino :)

Busy busy with music, phone calls, cleanup in prep to move, so not posting much.

Still alive but it's crazy!

Catch y'all later...

 

...ugh moving...glad I'm done with that for now.

Might not have to, interviewing with a local company tomorrow morning! 

...of course you tend to keep things pretty lean.

Living in the same place for nearly 18 years, one tends to accumulate a tonne of crap, some of it needed, some not.

Heck there was a bedroom dresser and a rollaway kitchen island I just left there which were both too big to get out as the height of the wall between the entry stairway and driveway had been raised by a good metre or so since I moved in.  Back then we simply slid both of them straight down from the driveway through the front door..

 Then in the last six months because of heart troubles I've had to quit caffeine totally.   So it's decaf Folgers coffee or decaf black tea.

I have bad news.  Decaffinated drinks still have caffine.  So if you feel it's critical... you might want to double-check I'm not crazy, then avoid those too.  But if "less but still some" is ok, then ok. 

I learned this at one point, and out of curiosity contacted the manufacturer of some drink (those curved rectangular tins of chocolaty/coffee powdered drinks... can't remember the name.  "vanilla cafe?" something like that) to find out exactly how much less caffine there was in them.  I was thinking it would have like 1% or .001% or something, but it turns out it was something like a third of the caffine.  Much less, but hardly gone.  Of course, I mixed it with about three times as many spoonfulls as you are supposed to have because it's tastier that way, plus my cups are about 12 oz instead of the standard 6 oz glass, so it turns out that my "decaffinated" drink was still about twice the caffine content of your average cup of coffee.

Thanks.   Yeah, I figured there was some caffeine still but now instead of 4 or 5 mugs of coffee a day (down from the 8 or 10 that I drank 20 years ago) I now just have one cup of decaf coffee in the morning and 1 or 2 cups of decaf tea during the day.  And I can tell if I have too much because my heart wakes me up doing a spastic Rumba in the middle of the night.

Rumba is supposed to be a slow dance. 

Maybe you mean a spastic lindy hop?

Oh, it's not that bad.  I live close to that area and already most of the snow from last year is gone.

Yea! I finally got rid of my old recliner chair.  Small apartment, too small for two recliners in the same room.  Recliner too big to take up the stairs to the bedroom.  Finally found transport for it to somewhere else away from here, don't care, it's gone.  Yea! I can move in my livingroom/office/lab again without squeezing around that $#^$%& old recliner.

It's a good thing I never have visitors who want to sit down.
