I can't stand trying to talk to someone when their face is in their phone, and they're grunting replies. My husband does it allllll the time, and I find it so rude. Ten minutes later, he'll bring up the very topic I was talking about, as if I hadn't just spoke of it 5 mins ago. He doesn't hear a word I say. It irks me to say the least. haha <br /><br />I'm going to check out the documentary you wrote about. Thanks for mentioning it. I've never really understood the huge fascination with Hunter Thompson..to me, it's a sad story. Maybe that's all there is to it? <br /><br />Congrats for making it that long without any alone time!! Spending that much time with family would drive me nuts..haha I love them, but I cherish alone time soooo much.

I just love that painting you made, how all of a sudden that figure is sitting there, and then the addition of the yellow and green that really makes it come alive. Beautiful .... And Brian Andreas: I get his "Story of the day" every day and enjoy every single one of them. I didn't know this poem yet, such beautiful words.

I am the same about my own time... more so now than ever before. I think it may just be an age thing... I was more adaptable then. This post was so jammed with interesting things! Thanks for sharing your amazing indy self! I love it. I always come away with a few nods of agreement, and a new tidbit to research! I really like steadmans art too! Can't wait to watch the documentary...just saw Muscle Shoals Doc, you and your son were the first ones I thought would love it as much as Beardo and I did http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2492916/ But I figured you probably already saw it!
