Bah ha ha ha ha!!  I had to do it.  I think, additionally, what I really need to do is find the video of that song.  Used to laugh… used to cry… used to sit around and wonder why… uh, no wait.  That’s something else.  I’m getting my 70′s tunes mixed up.  Alas… being nearly 45 has it’s disadvantages, but also it’s advantages.

I was just chatting with someone about the aches and pains that come with getting older.  My contention though is that yes, there are aches and pains, but the good parts about getting older are worth the occasional inconvenience of having an older machine.  What, pray tell, do I mean?  Well… what I mean is that as a person gets older they know themselves better, usually like themselves better, and are more of who they are… at home, out in the world, etc.  We become more of ourselves and more comfortable with who that is.  So I will take the stiff ankles (thanks to the racquetball injuries of my youth) because they come with a better me.

So what is all this alone again naturally stuff?  No, Karen and I have not had some bad break up (not gonna happen folks… ever).  No, what I mean is that I am the only PO in the office today.  Everyone else is at a training.  Apparently, according to my boss, I’m un-trainable.  Can’t be trained.  I accept this.  Actually, I think I have it better than they do.  It’s so quiet and peaceful around here.  Music, birds outside, great view, good book to read during lunch… I can’t complain.  I did go around this morning and take a photo of myself sitting at each of their desks.  After the round of photos I sent them each a text including the photo I took in their office and told them I had them covered.  Pretty funny.  Funny to me at least.  I obviously have no trouble entertaining myself.

And now, that song… Alone Again, Naturally  I couldn’t get the code to embed it, but if you follow the link you’ll get a little treat from 1972.  Enjoy!

The other song, I just looked up the lyrics, is I Need You by America. Here’s the video for that one… Gotta love America.
