This is a very personal journey, which goes through grief, adversity, joy and triumph.

What a Difference A Day Made......
Some may consider me an "old soul" because I like singers like Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughn and Billie Holiday...I just think I like GOOD music...I was exposed to these singers as a child probably because my Father was an "old soul" who loved music. He was 39 when I was born so I think this was the music of his era and that's why he loved it so much among other kinds of music. He was just like me (or I like him) he would listen to ANYTHING, any type of music EXCEPT...Country & the Blues (which I just think is Black Country music)...He also had me listen to Classical music to gain an appreciation of instruments...and to this day I really LOVE the sound of the violin (especially when I hear it on a WuTang song, lol).
This is my favorite Dinah Washington song and today it is SO appropriate....Yesterday ended up so badly for me. I was so upset/sad/irritable and I had no idea why (check yesterday's post)...Today, started alright, nothing special or extraordinary until I had what I think is one of the BIGGEST LAUGHS I've had in YEARS....
Before I start, you over-sensitive folk who may want to over think this situation can stop reading here........
I was running errands early this morning and decided to stop at the DMV to finally put the correct address on my license....It was kind of crowded, not really that crowded but as I was sitting waiting my turn I noticed two women sitting not to far from me. I noticed them because the older of the two ladies was wearing some type of blue satin pajama pants and had not combed her hair this morning. Well, if she did she just combed it straight to the back and she looked a HOT MESS.
Now, this is where the story gets good. As they sat there talking loud, swearing and complaining about the wait. The older woman looked out the window and said, "Those kids betta quit playing in that car before dey spill my drank!"
