Saturday Into Sunday Notes, Musings and Various Stuff

• The older I get, the more I enjoy music that I previously associated with the tastes of my parents generation. Today I found a Count Basie recording, "Chairman of the Board." Big Band Jazz from the 1950's. Swinging good tunes!!!
• For tonight anyway .... I never want to eat Chinese food again!! OD'd on the stuff.
• Don't you hate it when you highly anticipate an event and expend all sorts of energy to get to the event location before it's too late, only to discover that it's actually taking place next weekend. I suppose I should be happy that it wasn't last weekend but high expectations denied leads to major bummers regardless of the status.
• At work this afternoon, listening to conspiracy theories from the paranoid fringe. No not television or radio but from the mind of a co-worker.
• How many different cologne's does the average man have? There's eight on my dresser. I mean, I don't want to come across as anything less than a super hunky studly semi-sensitive macho man .... but I've become a lover of scents. And while the odds of ever spotting me in a suit and tie are pretty much slim and none, the chances of catching a whiff of cologne as I pass by are pretty good.
• I wanted to scream and jump up and down for joy when the Yankees pounded the leagues best pitcher and took a 8-3 lead in game two of the ALDS the other night and maybe even do a little this-game-is-in-the-bag gloating but elected to keep quiet and lay low instead .... good thing I guess. They ended up losing, 9-8.
• My life isn't overly exciting. I've accepted that it is what it is. But I do want to make at least one or two more trips to the Oregon coast before it ends. 
• I always check for spiders before putting on my slippers. 
• I'm not one who cares much for fiction in my reading. Though I do enjoy a nice collection of short stories. My library consists mostly of poetry, history, essays, books on music and musicians, etc ...
