Day thirty

Some random thoughts for today (not necessarily uplifting, but random):

-The more time passes, the more I hate the name of this blog. I had to come up with something and I was pressed for time to get a post up on January 1. I had been thinking about the blog since last Thanksgiving, always with the intention of starting on New Year's Day. I never thought about a title because no one really thinks of these things. Whatever the reason, it was a lousy choice.

-In an interview on the Today show, Ringo Starr talked about how he almost did not become a member of the Beatles. When he was eighteen and working in a Liverpool factory, he thought about emigrating from Britain to the US and settling down in Texas. When he went to the Ameridan Consulate and told them he wanted to emigrate, they handed him a large stack of paperwork to fill out. He admitted that it was so much that he couldn't be bothered to take care of it.

-I'm trying to write this through a burgeoning headache. I'm getting on the side of my head, and it's one of those headaches that feels like someone's pressing on my head. It might be the weather. Mom is susceptible to changes in air pressure as when the weather changes, and I'm starting to wonder if it's now happening to me.

Like I said, random, not uplifting.
