The most important lesson in life that I have learned, is that with age comes wisdom, from having nothing but time on my hands, to not having enough time!!! When did my life suddenly get SO busy?!?!?!?!I finally gave up smoking cigarettes in Dec of 2006 and have not picked them back up since! I smoked those nasty things for 22 years and now I am FREE!!!! I have regrets, I regret being a stupid young adult....*sigh*..I wish I had learned some of the *life* lessons sooner. I have always likened myself to being a veritable Cheshire Cat, I just connected with it when I was a child and it stuck with me
I love music, I always listen to Michael Schenker...than it's Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Pillows along with Depeche Mode( these are my musical staples ) My introduction to music was when I was just under 3, Simon and Garfunkel, Cecilia....from there it was a gradual progression to The Beatles, Jackson 5, Elton John, Barry Manilow, Queen, Rainbow, Deep Purple, THE SCORPIONS and than it blew up into Heavy Metal..which only gave me enough until Punk Rock touched me like no other music...with the introduction of Moon and his wild collection of eclectic music like I had never heard before, but LOVED the first time I heard most songs! I still remember songs I am trying to recover! He turned me onto The Anti Nowhere League *Yay, Animal!!!* which eventually progressed to The Dead Kennedys whom I STILL LOVE, I think it is awesome how some of us NEVER outgrow some music!!! I BREATHE music, I go on these musical bends......... my latest and favorite listenings are classic UFO, as well as Michael Schenker's work outside of UFO, Classic Scorpions...MUSE, a Japanese band called The Pillows, a band I was introduced to while watching FLCL...AND KOUICHI OGAWA!!!! ( I do not think Kouichi knows how to produce garbage, his music is amazing )
.....I LOVE fast cars, fast amusement park rides, rollercoasters. I never quite grew up, but I feel myself getting older....one day, I just realized I needed reading glasses...D'OH! This sucks, aging, but I work out...feels good to burn fat!!!! I have had a strange life. I have been lucky in some respects I guess, for the experiences others have lived through and I have only read about...this is a scary world, it amazes me that we are ALL so different, we all have different outlooks...we are ALWAYS learning..........I love you, Starlight! =)
