Heart (not the band), coffee & Van Halen

Okay, so it turns out I have arrhythmia! That would explain the disturbance I was feeling in my ticker. Apparently this is pretty common and I need to do the following: get more rest, drink more water and leave behind stimulants. WHA?!?! Stimulants?! That means coffee. And I love coffee. I got to know my wife over coffee in Kansas City. It's what we did! It's what we do! It helps start our day, it gives me an excuse to leave the office and I can't imagine days without it. It smells great and tastes delicious. And now I have to begin weening myself off of my sweet, sweet love. It is a dark day....stupid heart.

And just when you thought the dark day couldn't get any darker, I just found out that the Van Halen show (with Diamond Dave) in St. Louis has been postponed due to a "scheduling conflict." Wow. That's lame. It wasn't even like our city went down in flames with Chicago, Memphis and Detroit. Just St. Louis (as far as I know). $150 to see 3 old dudes on stage with a teenager play great rock from the 70s and 80s. But I have seen he YouTube videos and the boys are playing well...with a set list that includes some seriously kick dick rock (Atomic Punk, Romeo Delight, etc). I guess we'll just have to wait....single tear.
