My nephew wearing a red guitar.

My niece riding my guy's shoulders.

My other niece riding her dad's shoulders.

My twin nieces together.

Little me on my grandpa's lap.

My favorite board game was Clue,
from age 10 until adulthood. 

Miss Scarlet was my favorite character to play,
because she was pretty, & she got to go first.

I also liked Clue the movie see the trailer here.



Here's a song I like called,
 Red at Night by Gaslight Anthem.

Red At Night by The Gaslight Anthem

"Was a blood red sky on the morning tide
Was a cold wind blowing when I left that night
And the morning bells rang, alright, alright
Shoulda stayed home with you that night
Ain't nobody played the fool like I
Ain't nobody played the fool like I ...

...It's a red sky night and I'm doing alright
It's a red sky night and I'm doing just fine" 

an element of gray

"Day after day, I'm more confused

Yet I look for the light through the pourin' rain        
You know that's a game
that I hate to lose

And I'm feelin' the strain
Ain't it a shame 

Alvireo Martini Fall RTW 2011

Oh, give me the beat boys
and free my soul

Alvireo Martini Fall RTW 2011

I wanna get lost
in your rock n roll
And drift away... 

Alvireo Martini Fall RTW 2011

Beginnin' to think that I'm wastin' time

I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind

My guy not looking at the camera.

 
Now I'm countin' on you
To carry me through...

My guy in a collage of gray.

And when my mind is free
You know a melody can move me

My twin nieces wearing gray dresses.

And when I'm feelin' blue
 The guitar's comin' through

To soothe me

Thanks for the joy that you've given me

My nephew wearing gray.

I want you to know I believe in your song

And rhythm and rhyme and harmony 

Looks like my nephew spilled his drink,
 all over his shirt.
I do that all the time too.

You help me along
Makin' me strong...

Little me on my 1 yr old birthday.
I'm with my mom, &
 the teddy bear cake she made me.
It wasn't originally black & white,
 but I altered it to fit the theme of this post.

Hey, hey, hey, yeah
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock n roll
And drift away"...-Dobie Gray Drift Away Lyrics
