Coming up tonight at 8 CDT...
Let me back up
There are things I couldn’t say in my letters that I would want to tell you in person before I asked the other questions I mentioned. Of course, the first question would be -- will you go out with me?
Sounds like I need some new shoes
I’ll admit it; I’m a bit scared. But I spend all day thinking about the same person, so I need to follow my heart. I do feel like I’m having to choose between my brother and the woman I’ve fallen in love with, but if you ask me, He wanted me to feel the uncertainty that everyone else feels. … My mixes showcase what I’m really thinking -- unfiltered, because it’s like I have competing voices in my head. The melancholy usually wins out, but music helps restore my faith and hope and has led me to love. I keep wanting to “be the man” and just ask the question that you know I want to ask, but I’m honestly trying to avoid becoming King David, because I have a cousin named David and I once called him a “bitch” in front of my grandmother, and I really would prefer not reliving that moment. That was the day my grandmother’s car was struck by lightning (no lie). It scared the hell out of me but gave me a fright that I can remember and laugh about now. … And now you can laugh with me.
Saturday blues
I don’t realize how much I miss daylight until I lose it for a few days. I get cabin fever after a few hours; and yet I sit in the dark alone and watch TV and am OK with that. (Until I’m not.) Actually, I’m just blabbing before I start another mix. I’ve spent so much money on music over the years, but I don’t have a cassette player to share my mixes with anyone.
I appreciate pink a hell of a lot more on this side of cancer.
When you’re a poor kid, you have to make some compromises to get ahead. So, I try to remember the tale about the hare and the turtle. I think we all know how that story goes.
I miss writing
I enjoyed sending cards to you. I don’t really know where to find you except on certain dates. I dream about you knocking on my window and I come outside and kiss you on the porch. We can kiss in the rain if you want to like in that movie, but I prefer to stay dry when possible. (But wait at least a week; I might still be contagious. :(
Questions
These would be some of the first questions I would ask you:
1. What is your relationship with God?
2. How many cats do you have?
3. What are their names?
4. What is (are) your favorite kind(s) of food?
5. If you had one wish (and couldn’t ask for more wishes), what would it be?
A mix for the woman I hope will settle down with this wild man!
Amen!
This is my mantra for today. I am praying. I am praying a lot! What I am not doing is worrying.
Yes, we are in some crazy and scary times right now. God wants us to be prepared, cautious, safe but also trusting.
I am planning and taking precautions, but I am first and foremost trusting God.
He’s got this everyone!
So, say a prayer for strength and comfort today. With God’s grace, we can get through anything.

Any requests?
Starting on my new playlist on Day 2 of my cabin fever. Thankfully, I don’t have people. I pray for all those affected by the #coronavirus -- especially the parents who are trying to juggle work and kids!
Keeping it on the DL
Got sidetracked today; this quarantine threw me for a loop! But now I’m working on a new mix. I’m hopeful it has a very happy ending, but some members of my party have a sour view of how I feel. (My brother says the woman I like doesn’t exist.) I have mail that hasn’t been opened and flowers that need to be watered, but it’ll have to wait ...
As you’re sheltered in your home, try listening to some music (like this mix), read a book or just go for a walk. We will get through this!
Stop scrolling for a minute and read this image.
It’s so true right now.

A soundtrack for your Sunday ...
At least 1
At least one person will find this funny: Peter called this morning and demanded to know why I changed my relationship status on Facebook to engaged. Oh, and I already received a message from my father warning me not to be scammed by a kindergartener.
OMG

Adam was right. Women are the devil! Here’s something for free. https://soundcloud.com/djmax-29/the-short-one-for-the-pairs
A bonus mix for the night -- dedicated to my bros up in Memphis and all of you crazies in Tennessee (including my kin). Looking forward to a trip to Nashville soon! Hope some of you can join me!
Even when hell has reached the Earth, like it seems to have done now, God sees and worries and prays like the rest of us. God cares. And he knows it will end up OK. Love is the greatest weapon against hate. And hate only wins when we stop loving each other!
Awesome recast!
Baseball is back, so you’re getting an early mix!
