So I’m sleeping in my little car in a rest area near Detroit Lakes and I wake up sometime as the sun’s rising really needing to pee, which is why you want to sleep at rest areas, by the way, and I’m kind of squashed up against the door and when I open it I fall out onto the pavement. My entire left side is pretty much completely numb and I have to lay there for awhile before the feeling returns and I can hobble to the bathroom. I’ll have to think about maybe removing the back seat. The good news is that this car will be perfect for cooking, the exhaust manifold is flat and easy to get to and only needs a little wire to keep my dinner off the freeway. I’ll keep ya posted, I‘m starting easy this weekend, maybe a burrito or something. Other than that I’m trying to keep myself moving and shake a real dark mood that’s come over me. We said goodbye to Aunt Mid recently and since I was out west during the service I’ll sing her a Mississippi John Hurt song soon when we bury her. I’ll always remember her wonderful laugh and her absolute dedication to her family, she was solid as a rock and I know I’m better for having known her. I’ll miss her, though. I’m going downstairs to ride my stingray from the door to the washing machine and back when I oughta be practicing. This weekend I get to be on Tent Show Radio, play at the historic Silver Dome Ballroom with a bunch of friends, and finally return to the Mousetrap in Eau Claire after too long away. The world doesn’t owe me a thing.
