jah know lightnin’ strikes twice
today i lost my cell phone. actually i lost it last night but i didn’t find it this morning. anyway, it was pretty weird going about my day without it. turns out as soon as i left the house, c tried to start her car but it was dead, because the kids leave the lights on in there. she tried to jump it but had no luck and ended up driving my 1980 chevy custom deluxe truck around all day… and she had a lot of errands to run too, even out past the mall…
a cool truck to drive anyway though
and so, i ended up being disoriented enough by this dilemna that i started painting a red design on the side of satchels pizza that i’ve been wanting to paint for some time but never found the time… without a cell phone i had more time, no interruptions, no calls to make. i didn’t even have anyone’s number handy. heck, i didn’t even know what time it was.
later when i got home i found my cell phone, in the pocket of a jacket i never wear except i had put it on briefly to go get the garbage can from the road. and then i was complete again except that my ipod decided to break and now it won’t do anything so i’m letting the battery run dead and hope it re-boots tomorrow. c tells me that with mercury in retrograde these things are bound to happen… she may be right.
i also received my copy of come on like the fast lane, the silos new release that was released today and since i ordered it a couple weeks ago they mailed it to arrive on the release date. i only listened to it once so far but i like it a lot.
it’s late and i’m working on the poster for the reggae show coming up in april. because jah know that lightnin’ strikes twice!
