I’m kinda happy with the fortuitous composition of the last video and photo. That swan just lined up perfectly in the center of the shot.
The building that you see in the distance in the second clip is Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital.
I cropped an old photo from Warrenton, Virginia, and I really like the way it turned out.
Seen in downtown Roanoke this weekend. I have a pal out west who exemplifies the maxim, and we were having a conversation about it only the night before. Synchronicity.
So I’m a little bit of a weird guy. I had this absolutely vivid dream the night before last that I was a world-famous singer-songwriter. And I stopped into my old college town of Fredericksburg, Virginia, where all of my school’s deans and professors came out to greet me and invite me over for coffee. I was a celebrity.
The reason I was in Fredericksburg was to record a new version of my latest big hit at a local church — this time it would be a gospel version of the song. (Think of U2’s Rattle and Hum album.) This song, which had been my most popular ever, was called “My Girlfriend Got Eaten by a Gator.”
Here’s the thing — I SWEAR I can remember it perfectly. It’s stuck in my head. I was humming it all day yesterday. If only I knew how to write music, I’d write it down and go all the way to the Grammys.
Update — sorry for not posting a trigger warning for any unfortunate souls whose girlfriends were, tragically, eaten by gators. My bad.
