sorry folks. no pics today. the camera isn't here yet. it got held up at UPS, and hopefully I'll be able to get my hands on it before the week ends.

i finally got a new sheet set & duvet (is that a word that a guy is not supposed to use along with eating quiche?). i got some light earth tone colors....yes i liked my dark blue set but the down feathers really made it look like a mess i could never clean up. it is luxury flannel. i have realized the importance of having comfort while you sleep and this why i don't mind splurging when it comes to a good nights sleep. flannel is known for keeping you not too hot during the summer, and not too cold during the winter. the dark blue sheets i had were flannel too. and i had always liked what i had before because of the all weather feature, but never knew it was attributed to flannel (i thought it was the comforter doing its magic). so this is why i got flannel again. when i can afford 600-1000 thread count sheet set (which may be never), i'll be happy with flannel.i have broken them in by taking an evening nap. and they are very comfortable. now if i only had a tempur pedic matress to go along with it. i would be the envy of sleep connoisseurs! i expect this sheet set should last me a long time.

raymond has been looking into getting a new guitar. and he told me that he wanted to get the best one possible. so i been trying to get him to try a Taylor guitar. from my experience with it, there is something magical with that guitar. maybe something in the wood? like magic moon dust or something. when i had tried the guitar, it was almost spiritual experience. i started playing something and lost myself in it, and then my friend asked me, "oh were you playing that? i thought that was the radio." and my response was, "i guess i was...." i was creating beautiful professional sounding music without any effort at all. the taylor guitars are inspiring. yes there are some good guitars out there (ovation, takamine, martin, gibson), but it is my opinion Taylor guitars are in a league of their own. unfortunately they start at about $1200. worth every penny though. i won't be getting one any time soon....mainly because i have no time to dedicate myself to taking up guitars again. but raymond will be happy with his purchase. he checked one out today and basically confirmed all of my claims. i wasn't exaggerating.

got the Road & Track today. jeff's GTR only got about 1/2-1/3 a page at best. did he mention anything about the car? he said it was fast in the article, but according to jeff, he didn't even drive it hard. now i'm beginning to wonder if all articles are just made up like that....hmmm...
