Ain't Nothin' Like the Real Thing

I was reminded that I haven't blogged for awhile. Ooops. I forgot. The dog ate my blog. Uhhh, I had the 24 hour bird flu. Okay, the truth is, my Uncle passed away last week and my time was filled with those bittersweet memories and family from all over the country returning for the funeral. The death of someone near and dear serves to remind us of what is really important in one's life. You know, people. Real life relationships that add spice to this grand adventure we call our life.

I'll always remember Uncle Junior. He taught me a lot. Like never pull his finger. Never be in front of him, within pinching range and, most importantly, never overlook the potential humor in any situation. Our life here is fleeting. There's not a one of us that's going to get out of this thing alive. So grab today with all the love and energy you have to offer and life will repay you generously.

Now get back to having fun and we'll leave the mic on for ya.
(Is it painfully obvious here that I'm child of the 60's?)
