Think I should use it? Maybe I'll play better. Naaaahhhhh!
On another note, big developments 'round the house here. Got an invisible fence installed today. No more puppies tormenting the neighborhood! I would like to have given them an acre or so to run around but them mutts are diggers. Decided to just do a small area around the side of the house. Man, you should have seen them puppies jump when shocked for the first time! Real training starts bright and early tomorrow. Local dog whisperer is planning to show up bright and early meaning that I am gonna have to be off far earlier than normal. Looks like it works from first impressions...

I feel lost all over again. I'm in a happy marriage with the best husband and kids so why am I feeling such a loss over this guy again?
To confuse things more, I'm overjoyed that my friend and I made up but I feel I'm betraying her and my husband by feeling so lost over this guys death? |

Hey Joe--am so sorry to hear about your troubles.
It's perfectly normal & natural to feel what you're feeling & think what you're thinking.
They were such a huge part of your past & even though it ended on a mad/sad note, you had the courage to pick yourself up, dust yourself off & start all over again.
And you're not betraying anyone so don't even think that.
It was a chapter of your life & now a piece of it's missing so keep in touch with your friend & hold your husband & kids
It will get better !!
Sending Kleenex's your way !!
MUCH METAL LOVE TO YOU, MY FRIEND

Hey Joe, I'm really sorry about your loss. You shouldn't feel quilty at all. I know I would be very upset if I found out my ex-boyfriend(in my case, 1st love) passed away suddenly. When someone has been such a huge part of your life, good and bad it's normal to feel such strong emotions. Could be a feeling of unfunished business or something. I think your emotions are natural and hooking up with your past friend I think will help you move on and forgive. Good Luck with everything and just remember, "Keep the Faith!"

That is a really sad tale, Joe. Personally, I don't think that it is wrong to feel such emotions. Perfectly natural, in fact. I recently learned that a guy I barely knew past high school died recently and I still feel upset about it. Heck, I couldn't even really call him a "friend" but he was still someone I knew and feel the loss just the same. I can only imagine what you must be feeling.
Much metal love, my friend.

IMO a great cover song needs to be recognizable as a cover, but not the same. listened to some Iron maiden cover today (forget who, doing Rime...) and it sucked. sounded like they were trying to sound exactly the same. if they succed in sounding the same, then whats the point, if they fail, then they fail.
never heard fleetwood mac's Green manalishi, but, priest hit it well with Diamonds, and jonny be goode. changed, but similar, yet their own.
any thoughts? |
