Late Again...Not Great Again...DRAT!



(Sung to the tune of "Love Letters In The Sand)

♪♪On a day like today, I pass the time away, writing Bloggadocious in my chair..air...air...air,♪

♪Even though I am late, I'm sure it won't  be great,
Writing Bloggadocious in my chair,♪♪

♪♪You made a vow, that you, would read all the way through,
But somehow, that vow, was superseded by your brew,♪



♪Now my broken heart aches as I correct all my mistakes,
Writing Bloggadocious, in my chaaaaaair!♪♪



Yes, folks, once a gain I'm late with my blog, and there ain't nuttin' woice! 


I try, I really try, but life happens!

Disclaimer: This video is only included because I said, "I try, I really try," like Billy Jack, so please ignore the violent section at the end, in fact, just turn it off when Billy says, BERSERK. Thank you!

Early is my middle name! Danny Early Maness (really, it's Bruce, but I like Early better), and I've been an early guy since I was a child. I may have even been born early, but I can't remember.



The reason I always want to be early is because I never want to miss something.

For instance: "Danny, too bad you came late, The Beatles stopped by 5 minutes ago and sang "Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da for us!"



"Danny, if you had been here on time, you too would have received a million dollars from Howard Hughes like all of us did!" 



Maybe the main reason I despise being tardy is because of the stares, soft chuckles, almost indecipherable ridicule I receive from onlookers as I enter the scene. 



Then I realize, if I wasn't such a fanatic about promptness, they wouldn't make sport with me! 

Make sport: To joke about someone in a way that makes them feel stupid. 



I need to be late more frequently, to remove the stigma of being an "early bird"!

On the other hand, "the early bird catches the worm!" But, WHO WANTS A WORM?!! Yes, maybe someone going fishin', but lures are way less slimy. 

You might be thinking that my obsession with being early is a strain on my beautiful wife, Donna, but serendipitously, she is an earlier bird than me!

Serendipitous is an adjective that describes accidentally being in the right place at the right time, like bumping into a good friend in some unusual location, or finding a hundred dollar bill on the ground.

Her feats of earliness are legendary! Just ask her kids! However, I'm not gonna embarrass her by retelling these phenomenal tales of her being sooner than expected. That would NOT be a wise move on my part!

I don't know where this photo was taken, but I know she was early!

Anyway, let me apologize once again for my rudeness of making you wait for your daily dose of droll diversion! 

"After all, tomorrow is another day!"
