[QUOTE="pruman91, post: 1647443, member: 3916"] [ATTACH type="full" alt="OIP (13).jpg"]11436[/ATTACH] [I][B]Hello everyone....................................The air has been chilly here at the pruman91 Old-Age home the last few hours.......As you may remember I was in a cauldron of boiling water due to the fact that my old and feeble mind didn't block out calls from a former lady friend....Read the sordid facts in the post above if you have the courage.... [/B][/I] [B][I]We are on speaking terms again , but the frosty tone of her voice tells me flowers and a dinner out on the town might be in order....I've been so worried about my bud from my childhood and his travails with the medical mafia that I have not taken care of my own business and that's on me...Never again will I let my guard down as my lady means so much to me to not jeopardize it with my ignorance.........Anyway, here's the latest on my bud.......[/I][/B] [I][B]he called me yesterday @ 11am and said he had another rough night with , at one time , 8 nurses and 3 doctors in his room at the same time....Blood pressure was fluctuating around 90/50 and he was trying not to throw up from the nausea ..........Finally , they got him stabilized @ 120/80 and he said he started to feel a little better..........I changed the subject to get his mind off of his problems and started talking about our trip to Florida on spring break in the year 1970......... [/B][/I] [B][I]We started out from Southern Illinois full of piss and vinegar, both of our hair down almost to our waist........As we piled up in his car I asked him what[/I][/B] [I][B]route were we taking ....He said " How about the scenic route ? "....I said ok with me....we had plenty of 420 and other necessary condiments to make the trip enjoyable , so off we go.......About an hour into the trip he said he needed to pee so we pulled off the road and took care of business....When we got back in the car i noticed he had put his hair in a ponytail and stuffed the ponytail inside of his shirt and had put on a John Deere ball cap....... Hmmmmm......OK , wonder whats up with that ???.....We proceeded down the highway listening to some jams and then he said we needed gas....so we pull into an old country store type station in Kentucky and out comes Mr. Redneck personna-fied ....The dude looks at me and spits some toxic looking fluid in my direction and then goes on to where my bud is standing and starts talking to my bud like they are best friends.......my bud had a great laugh with doing that and it was nice to hear him laugh about it last night as we have had many great times in our history together........ [/B][/I] [B][I]When we pulled onto the beach at Fort Lauderdale it was still dark , so we pulled the car as close as possible to the water's edge, got out onto the hood of the car and watched the most beautiful sunrise possible....I had never seen the ocean before and to see that orange ball of fire rise over the horizon was mind blowing....We were pretty stoned anyway but that sunrise was the epitome of being high......[/I][/B] [I][B]My bud thinks he will have to stay until Monday before he will be released , so , I have fingers crossed that he has a full recovery from his woes.... The moral of this story is to remember those things in your life that awed you more than anything else.....the sunrise,.... watching my children being born........playing music onstage and people applauding you.......things that matter helps me deal with today's turmoil.....hope you can do the same.. [/B][/I] [B][I]Peace out...................[/I][/B] [ATTACH type="full" alt="37984_original.gif"]11437[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
