Idle Thoughts

Daily musings and demented, psychotic ponderings

I like music a lot, I played guitar most of my life and even was in a band once. I could spend hours playing music by myself or entertaining others. I was good, maybe even pretty good, but never REALLY good. I have 3 Fender Guitars that now have an inch of dust on them. I haven't touched them since March 25, 2001 and I never will again.

Happy Birthday Buddy

Happy Birthday Son,
I hope this message finds you well. I don't know where you are or even who you are these days but somewhere, some how in the Universe I expect this to find you in some form. Maybe not so that you recognize it but maybe where ever you are if you are hot it will come in the form of a cooling breeze, if you are sad it may make you smile for no reason at all and hopefully if you are happy it will bring you some unknown joy that will make you feel that your old family is thinking of you and wishing you well.
The weather here in California, planet Earth is very comfortable lately. Just the way you and I like it.
Your sister is doing very well and you would be so proud of her. She has a beautiful family very good looking and good children and she is so pretty. Her and Jaime has done such an excellent job, I know your familly and them would have been great friends if things would have turned out right.
Yor mom and I are doing well, I had to retire, earlier than I wanted but under the circumstances it was the best thing for me to do. Your mom is still working and that is good. All of the rest of the family is doing well Gpa and Gma just got back from vacation and they had a good time visiting Sue and Debbie. All of your cousins are doing okay as far as I know. Keith and Lynn are doing well.
I am going camping next month at Cleghorn Bar which is one of my most favorite places on Earth. I expect Keith, Jaime, Nathaniel, the Justins and Shaun, Kami's manfriend, Chris one of Keith's friends, Bruce of course and maybe even Gpa to go. I wish you were here to go I would have loved showing you this place. Your cousin Justin really loves it so I know you would have. It is a four wheel drive campground that is a real E ticket ride in and out. I always take Eugene in, yes I got'em fixed and he runs great.
When I see Ronnie and her family and all the cousins and their families I always wonder what your wife and kids would have looked like. You were so good with Nathaniel I know you would have been a good daddy. You are so much like Ronnie and she is such a good mom I can't believe how well she turned out given that fact that she is so much like me. You should have seen her recently at the santa Cruz boardwalk and Great America - she has inherrited my dare devil gene I am afraid.
Well buddy I need to go I am half shitfaced, having toasted you on your birthday with Patron Silver and Bud Light and it is only 10:47 in the morning. I know you are doing well where ever you are and I believe we are all a family and doing well in a parrallel Universe somewhere. I just cannot believe I fucked things up so badly in this one.
Happy Birthday Eric - I love you.
Dad.
