Z to A: Wanee Part 2

I'm still swamped. However, I did get the main Wanee Review published that I talked about with the first Wanee post in the last challenge. I was also able to publish a review of Robert Plant and his Band of Joy performing at Wanee. You can read that review here. I hope to publish some more soon.

However, I am also working on some other writing assignments including two interviews and an album review. So, we will see what I can get done. Here is a picture of Robert Plant in action. Patty Griffin is playing guitar in the picture as well. On Mandolin is Darrell Scott.

Z to A: X

X is great
Talk about your exes and you can get in trouble
You can't have an ax to grind without an X.
X marks the spot, but I still haven't found the treasure.
You can't fix it without an X. Can't send a fax without an X.
However, with out X there would be no tax.
Sadly with no X there would not be a sax.
X-rated could be too revealing.
I could go on about X but I could get in trouble...

Z to A: Yngwie Malmsteen

Back in December I had the privilege to interview Yngwie Malmsteen. I know I blogged about it when it happened. However, I thought I would dust off the topic again since we are on Y. Yngwie fits Y perfectly. It was a lot of work to get the interview but in the end it was worth it. Plus it is really cool since I have an interest in guitars to talk to a very talented guitarist.

Here is a link to the interview. I also reviewed his latest album here. It is moments like that which make what I do worth while. Fun, cool (at least to me) and something worth while are going to be the driving forces in my writing for the rest of the year. There are things out there that have zapped a lot of the fun out of it lately. However, I never was big into the page view chasing. It was nice when they were there. I did like the extra money.

Any way stay tuned I have some really cool things in the work!

Z to A: Zapped!

Day one of the challenge and I am already behind. Zapped! My internet provider had an outage yesterday. A part time writer's worst nightmare in this digital age. Supposedly it was throughout my region of the state. The bummer, was I lost an opportunity to write an article now gone since I missed the deadline. I also lost the opportunity to write what I wanted to catch up on as well. Oh yes it started me off behind in this challenge.

Taking a break from writing a new article now to write the blogs. I am pretty zapped waiting for my second wind. Long day at work. Then errands. Then spending four hours at Chick-fil-a will zap that energy away.

I might be zapped for a while. However, it is not all bad. I got the negativity out in the first paragraph. The article I am writing is something I enjoy. I'm interviewing a band this week which will be of interest to 80's Hair Metal fans. I may go to a circus tomorrow. I have a road trip planned for the weekend. So, zapped I will be.

A to Z: Zippity Do Dah

Zippity Do Dah it is going to be a sunshiny day. Okay not really 50% chance of showers. However, we are going to make it into a fabulous Zippity Do Dah day with plenty of Fun shine! My little girl loves cows, so we are going to see some today. She might even get to feed some! Of course she will be able to pet them.

There will be other animals like chicks, pigs, and maybe some surprises. Plus there will be some hayrides. So, it should be a fantastic day for her. Then I am planning to go to a blues jam with my wife later on in the day with my wife. It should be a fun, fun ,day.

A to Z: Yesterday

Yesterday was a busy day. I spent the entire day from 10:30AM to 10:30 PM with my daughter. We saw two movies, Charlotte's Web 2 and the 1994 Lassie movie at the opera house. Then we wondered  through Shepherdstown. She had a wonderful time. Then we topped the day off with a trip to Chick-fil-a, where she got dinner and was able to play for a few hours in the playground. Today I am planning to take her to a farm to pet cows, feed them, and go on hay rides. She really missed me when I went away to Florida so trying to spend some quality time.

A to Z: X Book

Another x-girlfriend became my friend on facebook today. I say another because I  am already friends with another x. I didn't recognize the name and I was surfing on my smart phone. I said Okay, if I knew who it was I may not have. It is just strange thing with facebook. Me, thinking about denying them is no reflection against them. To be honest I really don't know them. They same happy and life appears to be good for them. Which is all great. Then it made me think of people I have denied on facebook, I felt a little guilty.It is like  I won't be friends with you but I will be friends with my X's. Life in this cyber world we live in.
