Is there such a thing as "intellectual blues"?

I decided to promote my own music today. I'm pretty bored, and haven't done much beyond buy some groceries, smoke cigarettes, chat with friends on the phone, YouTube, and practice a bit of guitar.
This is my song about Mark Twain, as viewed through the eyes of his favorite daughter, Susy Clemens. I did a lot of research for this one, and tried to capture their relationship in a song. She died of spinal meningitis at age 24.
What have you been up to today? I WAS able to get into Safeway (a local grocery store) and get some necessities, including wine and bacon. Feel free to leave a comment on the song. Most of you have already heard it.

Very nice...as usual! I haven't been up to much. Hubs was brave and went out again today. He suffers from cabin fever. Got to keep him inside.

@LindaOHio I did some cycling today. People were doing a good job of keeping their personal distance without (for the most part) being unfriendly.

@TheHorse Yes. He can't do anymore shopping because the pantry and freezers are overflowing.

I did some house cleaning, check the mail, clean the cat litter and do write a fan fiction on DeviantArt.

@Deepizzaguy Are people good about reading what's posted there? Is there any money in it?

@TheHorse Fan fiction is my version of my vision of a super hero movie or show appeals to me. Old fashioned decent stories.

I'm thinking about going out for a walk, if it doesn't rain.

@TheHorse I did go out for a walk. It didn't rain but was cloudy. After I got home of course, the sun came out.

Sounds like you doing well with this one. Nice. Now we just need to get gimme gimme and make it into a punk song. Style I mean, you know the deal. Would be awesome.

@TheHorse We could do that Come on know you want to be a punk. Turn it over to Giveme Giveme's and let them work their magic. Would be fun.

I took my truck to the shoppe today. It needs fresh brake pads on the back, plus the check engine light is on. I cycled home (about four miles), so I got some exercise in. It's getting cloudier. I hope I don't have to cycle in the rain to pick it up.

the song is amazing - shared it with the universe! (or at least the 3 people that admit publically they are my friends)!

@TheHorse i suspect i am annoying at times, ergo the unwillingness to publically admit a friendship! (I am kidding of course)
