The stereo blasting - Guns n'Roses interesting, thinking of guns and roses together there is a line in one song "funny how everything was roses while we held onto our guns" If only more could really hear that Plastic covers everything As we try to cover the hunter green walls with the freshness of sunbeam yello we reminisce of the days when Guns n'Roses were our idles amazing the choices of young adolecence The paint splashes As I shake the ladder while almost plumetting We laugh uncontrollably unawaew of the mess we made She walks over to me, smiles, and laughs again The stereo blasting - "In three words I can sum up everything I learned about life: It Goes On" ~Robert Frost |

I'm glad you had fun reading this one... The room looks good, although there's a little yellow pain on the carpet in one corner hehehe Thanks |

Jan I'm happy that it made you smile... Painting should always be fun.. otherwise it's far too serious. Tracie, Thanks for the kind words... Tom, I'm so glad you could relate.... Gn'R is something I still drag out now and then for a great listen... Thanks for the support. "In three words I can sum up everything I learned about life: It Goes On" ~Robert Frost |

yep, I like those poems where you have fun doing something in life that you really don't want or care to do, but when you have someone to do it with, it's a little more easy. nice writing |
