Alright


What a long day. The lines are long, the dust and pollen in the air is terrible, but it will be alright. I got my cinnamon rolls, time to get the girls their Strawberry Shortcake. Yes the temper tantrum, but alias it's time has come. Let us find our seats. Row A in section 10c 21-23. Here we go. Man it is cold out here, but we will be alright. Lights go out. This is where the real story begins.

Our Angel lights up like a northern star on a clear night. He starts playing. She lets out a big scream. Lot of noise for a 4 1/2 year old little girl. "Darius" and a kiss is blown. This smile stays around the next hour. Never failing. This angel who knows what "bad" words are is singing about "whiskey to forget" instead of "Butterflies and sunshine". Yes she know the words to about 6 songs of his. History in the Making, Alright, Don't think, etc... The night goes on and no matter how tired she gets she has enough energy to hang around for the encore. "Purple Rain" sung by Darius...she is on my shoulders and we danced and sang. Mom called it the best concert ever...got to say i agree. For our little angel just a night with her Mom, newest boyfriend Darius, and her # 1 guy Dad. Alright.

Madness

When does the madness end...never. Why did we think it would? Does it have to make sense? Why don't we all just stop kidding ourselves. It is what it is. Some are the beacons of light in a dismal day. Some are what they are, the ones that make your life rough; and then their is family...a difference?!?...Some are our extended family that is blood, and then there are our adopted family...my goddaughter, and godson. Two lights at home in the dismal madness that does not end...and then there are some who we are now better off without...relief at last. Madness...what can you do? Xanax, racquetball, love of you wife and daughter. All forms of drugs? Madness Killers? Yea baby...Maybe this is just what it is. A Rant. Last four weeks have deserved a rant. A Huge rant. Madness to some, but the Time off has begun. Time to enjoy the company of my Wife, Daughter, goddaughter, godson, best friend, Darius Rucker (Sara's newest luv), Strawberries, Movies, and Baseball. Rant yea, but definitely madness personified.
