I admit... I never could read music... it's embarrassing. I play a few instruments, but never did learn how to actually read music. I admit I'm now, at the age of 34, trying to teach myself how, AND how to play the pennywhistle. I admit I spent a couple hours at a toy store (a REAL toy store, not one of the adult toy stores) today, and walked away with a tinwhistle, very lovely puppet, stuffed snow leopard, a couple of little figurines, a grow your own crystals kit, and some old timey candy sticks. I admit, it was a blast, spending time there and feeling young again. They had REAL metal slinkys and radio flyer wagons and wooden toys and all kinds of great GREAT things. I admit that it was the greatest toy store I've ever seen. It was all so real, not filled with nothing but the plastic junk they have the audacity to call 'toys' now. I admit I want to go back many many many times. I admit, I may dislike kids a lot, but, there was a little girl in there who looked rather sad, and even I think it's wrong for a youngin to have a sadness in a toy store, so I entertained her for a couple minutes with a bunny puppet until she was smiling and laughing again, and sent her on her way. I admit, that will probably destroy my crotchety old man reputation... >.< I admit that afterwards we went to the grocery store and took the puppet in (very lifelike puppet) and many people smiled and stopped to see it. One fellow in the car next to us at a light saw it and began laughing and waved and meowed at the cat puppet. It was a magical feeling to see how much joy such a silly little moment can bring to someone. I admit it does my heart good to think that he'll probably look back on that moment for the next couple days and not be able to hold back his smile. I admit to buying a great prime rib roast and cutting it into 1 1/4" steaks and grilling them for dinner for us. I admit that today was one of the most whimsical and wonderful and magical days I've had in a long long time. I admit it... it's a strange and glorious feeling to actually feel alive again.
