"'The time has come,' the Walrus said..."

Well, like so many who have come before me, I'm relocating.  Xanga's been fun, but it's time for me to start anew.  For the three of you who might still be interested in the forward progression of my thought/life, check out my new blog at http://stephenfoxworthy.blogspot.com/

So long, Xanga, and thanks for all the fish!

Wow... I can't believe this cereal EVER stopped selling...

Because, really... who wouldn't want to wake up to a nice bowl of Crunchy Loggs?

I'm really not sure what's worse: the name or the mascot... *Sigh!*

Thoughts on Aging and my life in Dylan titles...

I turn twenty-five in a few weeks.  TWENTY-FIVE!  And, to be honest, I'm not too excited about it.  Most of my nearest and dearest (many of whom are younger than I am) are already married and I'm not even dating.  Granted, I'm not really wanting to get married anytime soon, but still... I just feel like I'm really behind in the game.  Like I've got a lot of catching up to do.  *shrugs*  Maybe I do.  Maybe I don't.  I dunno.  I just feel really old and don't much care for it, in truth...

And now for something completely different...

I did this a couple of years back with Ben Folds (Five) song titles and wanted to try it again with Dylan... so, here goes nothing!

01. Choose a band/artist and answer only in titles of their songs: Bob Dylan
02. Are you male or female? "Man of Peace"
03. Describe yourself: "Man in the Long Black Coat"
04. How do some people feel about you? "Jokerman"
05. How do you feel about yourself? "Stuck Inside of Mobile With the Memphis Blues Again"
06. Describe your last ex-: "Just Like a Woman"
07. Describe current dating status: "It Ain't Me, Babe"
08. Describe how you feel: "Like a Rolling Stone"
09. Describe how you live: "Knockin' On Heaven's Door"
10. Describe how you love: "All I Really Want to Do"
11. What would you ask for if you had just one wish: "Ballad of a Thin Man"
12. Share a few words of wisdom: "Most Likely You Go Your Way and I'll Go Mine"
13. Your love lasts: "Forever Young"
14. Now say goodbye: "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue"

I learned something new about myself last night: apparently, when I get embarrassed, my entire head turns red - not just my face.

Just a little tidbit for those of you keeping score at home.

If I haven't driven it, it's new to me!

I GOT A NEW (to me) CAR!

That's right, America (or at least the meager percentage of you that cares enough about me to read my blog)!  I have a new (to me) car!  It's still a 1990 station wagon, but instead of a Toyota Camry, it's a Mercedes Benz 300 TE!  That's right - I'm big pimpin'!  Here's a pic!

Me and my new car!  It's a gen-yoo-ine Mercedes!

In the grand history of giving the cars I drive odd names (not a long history - as I've only owned one, now two, cars - but a grand one nonetheless), I've decided to name this new vehicle 'Zarathustra' after the titular prophet of Friedrich Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra.  Obscure?  Yes.  Awesome?  YES!

Me and Zarry - see how excited?!

CHECK OUT ALL THIS TRUNK SPACE!!!

Now, don't get me wrong - I loved Chewbacca.  However, he was an old car whose brakes didn't wanna work when I wanted to stop.  And he had over 200,000 miles on him.  He also leaked everytime it rained, the rear windshield wiper didn't work, it couldn't dispense washer fluid, it was a notorious oil chugger... the list goes on.  He was a good car who got me from point A to point B when I needed to get there (most of the time.)  Still, it was time to put him down.

Much as I love Zarathustra (which I do), I will assuredly miss Chewie (which I do).

 
Rest in peace, Chewie - you're my dog!
