Hail and Well Met, (or Male and Hell Wet)

6/28/08 The Week

This is my wife singing me Happy Birthday. Isn’t she hot? The week I turn 50 brings so many changes. We have a new director at work. The training of new inspectors continues…meaning I’m working 78 to 80 hours a week minimum. To top it all off I have been made a member of the White Horse Theater Company and cast in their upcoming production of: Small Craft Warnings by Tennessee Williams. The play will see 16 performances this Fall in New York City. So, it seems not much is slowing down for the old man; not in the very least.

Vacation?

I want to run naked

And free

But I am bound

By these threads of propriety

Lady

You stand

Just beyond reach

Comfortably

Torturing me
