With La Villa queued up directly behind, I reckon I'll be sitting put for another 10 minutes. <3

Wish I had a pic but I don’t. My Dad and his buddy invented and built a folding golf cart back in the 60s. Stick it in your trunk and unfold it when you get to the golf course. The thing was on the Johnny Carson show and everything. Ed McMahon sat on in. Invention night or something.

No.
Just, "NO!". SOME things are sacred and shouldn't be messed with.
On one hand I agree, on the other, if it was in front of me, I would eat it.

The little dog is in here, vacuuming up my potato chip crumbs. He really shouldn't be. I mean, I'm okay with it kinda, but I hope he is intelligent enough to like, not eat a shard of broken glass or whatever,
I loved Rush's music (my favorite for driving the drunk bus in college) and they were certainly musical geniuses but I'm also like, okay with the dude dying,
The only famous person I am NOT okay with dying is David Foster Wallace. That is mainly because depression killed him in a way I am ALL too familiar with (severe depression, first drug works, first drug has PITA side effects, person tries a different drug, and like, it does not work and they try every drug on the planet, and NONE of them work, including ECT, then they go back to OLD drug, but every drug changes your brain chemistry, and then you kill yourself,) That did not happen to me, actually ,but I have seen it happen WAY too much and it just SUCKS. Also, I am not sure David Foster Wallace's IQ could be measured, and the hyper intelligent often have a hard time of things, man. I am very distressed he no longer has the opportunity to write books which is the Absolute Worst, I mean "Infinite Jest" is on my "read every 5 years list" and it's like a thousand pages long.
I think it would be sadder if he was at his heyday sorta, kind of like Freddie Mercury or something. He had a reasonably long life for a musician.
When Bono dies, I will grieve. I'm not saying U2 is ANYWHERE near as brilliant as Rush. But, it's that "connection" thing I think. I would have grieved if Frank Zappa were not already dead, once I discovered him, LOL. There's just something about that dude...
And, underneath that U2 grief, there would STILL be a large part of me going "Come on Anna you know he was um, sort of, well, he got a Nobel Peace Prize and that automatically qualifies you to be "the worst" lately..... I'm just saying like I let the famous and whatnot live their lives and I live mine. Usually.
The grief for my house is pure though.. It's kind of hitting me. I can't even imagine it not being there right now. Also, I am wondering what else on EARTH can go wrong, man.

Over the years some had made me very sad, even to the point of tears. Usually short though - one big burst and they're out.
I remember (clearly a very good friend of mine being inconsolable when Elvis died. I was sad too, but I never fully understood what it did to him.
I'll quote Phil Busardo here, in a totally irrelevant sense (but most appropriately in this thread).
"Now, I get it."
Point being, we all have our peeps. The ones that reach our depths.
There was talk several years back of a Rush movie. Tom Hanks was slated to play Neil but his concern was who you could get to play Geddy. No one looks like Geddy. I always thought Bono looked like Geddy.
When you're told you'll be dead in 5 years (4 years ago), you and your Wife tend to just shrug when someone older than you dies. Reality. Sorry.
Dyin' is bad news at any age.
That said, still have all my Rush on que, starting with, "Fly By Night."
Still going through all my Ginger Baker stuff.
Hey, I'm not a TOTAL dick...
I still laugh listening to Gene Simmons talking about touring with Rush back in the day. Talks about how after the concert KISS would be drinking and chasing chicks while Rush would sit in their hotel room reading books.That said, still have all my Rush on que, starting with, "Fly By Night."
That's Canadian code for h00kers and blowRush would sit in their hotel room reading books.
Last concert I saw was their Roll the bones tour in Hamilton, Ontario..
Is it though? On fine mania, I was pretty convinced I could "capture" things I wanted and send them up to heaven (of course I also had some other curious beliefs.) It's called magical thinking and it's the best, until it sucks.
Like, mentally, I am sending my house up to heaven. IDK I loved that house. Only there will be no Tucson around it. That town will not exist in my heaven. Maybe the homeless can have it.
Okay, I really am a horrible person. I am also NOW technically "homeless." I mean, I hope it doesn't happen, but our landlords could vacate us at ANY time.
To be fair, this place don't even have a DISHWASHER maybe the street would be you now, fine.
I wonder what I would look like coated in a layer of grime?
Also, I have a sneaking sort of feeling like yeah yeah yeah suicide is bad and all but under certain conditions, well, I've had patients who died and there were times I was sad for me, but happy for THEM.
My brother, who like, we do not get along, he was like that in early adulthood. Me and my mom decided we would not be sad if he died (I had more buy in to the not sad part) but he was so miserable, if he didn't get better maybe he'd do it,.
He did not. I would have been okay though is what I am saying.

I do not know who would grieve for me in my family but there are times I think I will be the first to go.
