Thanksgiving Thoughts

As per the last few years, this Thanksgiving Day was celebrated by breakfast at Biscuitville since Karen's job requires her to spend her holiday on the sales floor.  No turkey here, no stuffing or even sweet potatoes, but hey, we have football!  A long holiday weekend with no bookings means pro football, college football, more college football and more pro football between taxi driving Karen to and from retail hay-deez.  

Seeing a lot of lists of things folks are posting that they are thankful for today, quite a nice distraction actually.  Too bad most folks are only thankful one day a year (publicly anyways).  

Me?  I'm thankful I can still get out of bed in the mornings, thankful Karen hasn't decided to kick me to the curb, thankful that Pip came into my life, thankful for Delilah, Alden, Imogen & Mason growing into beautiful little humans, thankful for friendships too numerous to even begin to tackle.  Danny Wenkel and his entire family have always bent over backwards to make sure I'm having fun when we do our little rasslin' thing, Jeff Rudd has smartening me up on the business aspects of the game and every wrestler standing in the squared circle looking at me like a madman due to me calling their match results wrong or mis-pronouncing their name...Sorry about that.  Want to know when I've fubared something at a live show?  Watch Grant.  He'll be screaming, grabbing his hat, stomping and rolling his eyes like a crap game.

I'm especially thankful to my life-long friend Tommy Smith for continuing to send me incredible songs to write lyrics for and to sing on as RoxX.  This has been the one single thing I can point towards as a reason to continue onward that I'm actually STILL excited about.  We have recorded and published ten songs on SoundCloud in the past 14 months and have several in the can awaiting release.  Also, we're still churning out new stuff, as I submitted lyrics for another new tune ("Life's Good") just yesterday afternoon.  Hope we get a chance to get back in studio soon.  As a matter of fact, Click Here to hear RoxX's latest release "Sanity And Darkness".

Aiight.  Detroit and Minnesota is close, gonna go veg in front of the television and see if I can coax Pip into joining me before I have to take Karen to work.

Somebody email me a deviled egg, aiight?
