One hell of a weekend June 15, 2009
Posted by N9IK in : Uncategorized , trackbackMan, it has been a long, long time since I have enjoyed myself as much as I have during this past weekend! All of my boys are home at the same time, and all of them have “their women” with them, along with my two grandchildren. I am usually one of those that has a difficult time dealing with chaos and noise, but I’ve seen a bit of heaven here, with the lasses all vying with the lads for hot water in the showers, and good-natured ribbing about that eternal, incomprehensible, daily ritual of the goddesses called “getting ready”. And then there is the howling and posturing of the young males, each attempting to assert their dominance in the pack – none of them realizing that they lost it long ago, as soon as they were captured by the females. It’s especially poignant when one of the lads does, momentarily realize this, and gets that glazed “deer-in-the-headlights” look that is the best indicator of them having a “huh? Wha’ happened?” moment.
Fortunately, I am a wizened grandfather and well beyond the chest-beating and eyelash-batting so necessary of the younger generations for making their own way in the world. Well… that’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it.
Currently listening to: Al Di Meola – Consequence Of Chaos – Turquoise
