I like sleeping on a cold pillow but the problem is my body temp is 98.6 so the pillow warms up too fast..so then I see a product called "Chillow"... a pillowcase cooler!! so I ordered one
Burn These Bridges, baby! |
ok the singer-songwriter thing is dead..it peaked in the 1970s and wandered around in the 1980s but this is 2013...if you're a singer songwriter today, nobody gives a shit..really nobody...I've seen the wannabes..they got famous daddies and they got their little albums out and they are 19 years old and they sing little folk song and trustfund blues and their own wippy little muffy tunes...hey 98.6 it's good to have you back again! like cute little Jessie Bridges, Jeff's kid...honey you need to burn some bridges..that's a title of my song so don't steal it, but I urge you to "Burn These Bridges"!!
not that this dead art can't be saved..it can...I love the original ones like James Taylor and John Denver and all, but watching them nowadays with the hearing aids and walkers well just makes me uncomfortable..and John Denver is dead although his music lives on....these guys were originals..hugely talented and fearless...learn from them but don't copy them...
see, you need to add something to it..singer-songwriter-farmer..or singer-songwriter-busboy..or singer-songwriter-waitress...or singer-songwriter-microbiologist ...or singer-songwriter-chillow inventor!
today, you can't just be a singer-songwriter- you can't just appear on a magazine with a cigarette in your mouth and try to look cool...cigarettes are stupid!!!
you need to add some pizzazz to it...and then your stories become more interesting because the offspring of famous Hollywood actors who live sheltered lives in Montecito don't usually have anything to say unless they strike out on their own and stake their own claims, like John and James did...
just be yourself
next I see that SBCC Adult Ed changed their logo to transgender Flying Dolphins and named it CLL- Center for Livelong Learning...one of the classes is put on by the nonprofit Center for Self Esteem..the lady giving the talk is Erin Graffy.... EEGADS!!! the nutty Society gal who writes for the News-Press--wow, the lecture is a half hour long! anybody with any self-esteem would at least give you an hour of her time, I would think..
Erin calls herself an historian- she's not really- her sense of history is what Justin Beiber wore yesterday..she's got her weird brother and her daffy mother....I'm tellin' ya, this whole family needs to disappear...
