I’m thinking this will be a short post today because my brain is set on “stun”.

But this is actually a good thing. I appear to finally be over my cold, but now all my body wants to do is sleep. I guess to catch up on all those nights where I coughed my head off all night.

I slept in until 6AM today — which is sort of unheard of for me. But I figure I should get used to that, since we set our clocks ahead next Sunday, and there’s no way I’m getting up at 4AM anymore because my body will know it’s actually 3AM…

Then after breakfast, I went back to bed and slept until 10AM (!!). Without coughing!! And, actually, I could lie down right now and go right back to sleep.

But I gotta get to town in a little while here and see the retired Minister and his lovely wife and cat.

Anyway.

I did want to say that I’m making a really good dent in my “List of Things To Do Immediately”. I’m kind of happily surprising myself as I check things off my list. So that feels good.

Tomorrow, I will probably be late again posting to the blog. The electrician comes at 10AM — which means corralling all the cats again, etc.

And then I have a quick phone call with my accountant in NYC scheduled for 10:45, so I’ll be trying to do the blog in the middle of all that.

But we shall see, gang.

Mostly, I’m just feeling pretty happy. And a lot tired. And all I have for today are Keith-based items!!

Here’s this!!

Apparently, great minds think alike!! Yay!!

I don’t know what’s on his mind here, because it’s not written on his shirt, but it seems sort of, I don’t know, far away?

And no way of knowing what’s on his mind here, because he has no shirt on at all, but it seems really frisky, whatever it is:

And that is it for today!

I hope you have a great Sunday, wherever you are in the world!

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys. See ya!

Let’s leave with this for today!

From the Rolling Stones, 1978, “Far Away Eyes”!! Enjoy, gang.

“Far Away Eyes”

I was driving home early Sunday morning through Bakersfield
Listening to gospel music on the colored radio station
And the preacher said, “You know, you always have the
Lord by your side”
And I was so pleased to be informed of this
That I ran twenty red lights in his honor
Thank you Jesus, thank you Lord

I had an arrangement to meet a girl, and I was kind of late
And I thought by the time I got there she’d be be off
She’d be off with the nearest truck driver she could find
Much to my surprise, there she was sitting in the corner
A little bleary, worse for wear and tear
Was a girl with far away eyes

But I’ll tell you

So if you’re down on your luck
And you can’t harmonize
Find a girl with far away eyes
And if you’re downright disgusted
And life ain’t worth a dime
Get a girl with far away eyes

Well

Well the preacher kept right on saying that all I had to do was send
Ten dollars to the Church of the Sacred Bleeding Heart of Jesus
Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California
And next week they’d say my prayer on the radio
And all my dreams would come true
So I did, the next week, I got a prayer for the girl
Well, you know what kind of eyes she got
But I’ll tell you

So if you’re down on your luck
I know you all sympathize
Find a girl with far away eyes
And if you’re downright disgusted
And life ain’t worth a dime
Get a girl with far away eyes

So if you’re down on your luck
I know you all sympathize
Get a girl with far away eyes

c – 1978 Mick Jagger, Keith Richards
