Lytspeed's Creativity Journal

There used to be a different page here, but I haven't the foggiest idea what the topic was, and the file is not on my backup tape. I hate that feeling. I guess it's possible that I just missed a day, but I thought I had an August 29th file in here. Hmmm ...

Ah! I remember! I was planning to go to an open mic poetry reading at Coffee on the Lowell this night, but when I got home I found out that my wife had bought me an early birthday present and she wanted me to open it. It was a new home stereo system, and I spent the next hour and a half playing around with it and setting it up. That was a very sweet gesture for her to make, especially since my birthday isn't for another month!

Anyway, I didn't make it to Coffee on the Lowell, but I did get inspired to write a silly little poem anyway. Maybe next month I can present it as a small bit of comedy at the open mic.
