Teachers are everywhere. Look at yahoo personals. 75% of the girls on there are teachers. I know because I got a friend who is single and voyeuristic. I recently attended a house party that had been over-run by a bunch of said teachers. The group speak was nausiating, but that goes for group-speak in general. Consider that you have a child. You will think that said child is the cutest and best child. In your mind, your child can do no wrong just like shit doesn't stink. Other people will help you to maintain this dillusion as long as your kid doesn't fuck up their shit. But honestly, their feelings for your kid resemble at best, apathy. Teachers are the exception to this rule. They actually get geeked about other people's kids. *chuckle*
Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti-teacher. Some of my best friends are teachers. Back to topic.
So I was at a party with teachers and I met this dude who is in a branch of the US military. His weapon of choice is his voice, since he is in the band for this un-named segment of the military. Aparently they are doing a rock albumn that is mostly cover songs. But they are looking for a few original songs. I told him that about my music and gave him a CD. A few days ago I got a call from him asking for the lyrics to my song "Salvation Army." He also asked me about the story behind it. For those of you who haven't heard it. It's basically about missing my ex girlfriend who used to get dressed up in my clothes with her old tennis shoes and a coat that she bought from the Salvation Army. That was actually part of the song.
He was geeked about the song, and he is going to introduce it to his band. If the military likes it, I should get a healthy check, which would be great because I have invested a lot of Chase bank's money in my recording equipment. *wink* Even if it doesn't make the record, they still might start playing it at shows. That would put me right up there with Winona Ryder and her famous ping pong ball trick. Of course this could be all talk because everyone knows how flaky music people can be. I'm the only exception. I'm not flaky...unless I promise you something or you need me to do something for you.
I'm going to try to find a teacher to hug now. If that fails, I've got a white russian with my name on it...end blog.
