A Corvette? With These Gas Prices?
HELLO GENTLE READERS:
I've taken a couple of days off from writing. I, like Paul Newman in "Cool Hand Luke", needed to GET MY MIND RIGHT! Did I? Who knows. I spent a few hours with my Divorce Lawyer (at $355/hour) yesterday and kept thinking, "I don't need this mess right now". Hell, it would've been cheaper to marry the lawyer! I've got 6 to 12 months to live and I'm spending time with a (foxy, to be sure) Divorce Attorney! Piss-poor planning (the divorce was planned, dying just wasn't on my schedule yet)! I'm trying to save a sizable estate for my daughter so, I'll soldier on.
I guess securing my daughter's future is my last hurrah. In retrospect, I've done about everything I wanted to do. I've written a couple of songs that "charted". I've played on 7 or 8 CD's, one of which won a Grammy. I've made (and spent) an amount of money equal to Peru's National Debt. I've travelled. I've even dined with Royalty (they have really good manners). I've met entertainers, actors, musicians, sports figures and political types; keep your wallet in your front pocket around any of these! I've never found that one all-encompassinglove but, I've had lots of little ones. Not a bad life at all.
I've never owned a Corvette. Hmmmm?
