I met "Jerry" back in the early "50". There was a restaurant in town where all the teenagers used to meet for cokes (the drink) and Jerry used to be in there a lot. I had many visits with him and was a little smitten as we all were. lol.
I had a dream and I told him about it and he told me that if I ever had another like it to look him up and he would tell me something.
Well I didn't have another dream like it until years later and by then I was married and just never got around to calling him. I'm not even sure by then if he was even taking calls. Anyway, I'll never know what he would have told me. I have thought about for years.

I'm so glad I knew him when he was younger . He was great as I remember. Its hard to believe the things that I have read about him as he got older. Doesn't even sound like the man I knew. I guess we all change. I'm glad of my good memories.

Rest in peace, Jerry!

Me in a nutshell

They say the first line of writing a book is the hardest. Well I'm not writing a book but my first line is "IT'S NOT EASY BEING ME." Now that wasn't hard at all. It's not that I don't have a book in me, it's just if I wrote one I'd lose the friends I have. I only have three friends and thats only because they are family and they have to speak to me. Don't want to lose them. Hmm!

I'm not famous, fat, skinny, smart or dumb but I breath and think so therefore I am. I have many hobbies, read a lot, THINK A LOT, and talk a lot. About thinking, I have a wee touch of OCD, with my mind racing on occasion. I'm going to share with you different things of interest that I read and opinions of what I think. I certainly hope for lots of feedback. My subjects will be many. About talking a lot, no one wants to listen to me. who cares?
