Farewell to a Friend
Finally, a free moment to update. It seems the deeper into Summer I get, the busier I become. Not to worry though, I'll pull through...I hope.

My Saturday will be busy and it's not getting off to a good start.
I'm attending a funeral for a friend of mine and that is never easy to do. He left a wife and three year old daughter. I have to say they're doing somewhat well. Then again, he was ill for some time, so it was kind of inevitable.
I was asked to sing at his funeral as well. I've never been asked to do that before. I hope I can make it throught the song. It'll be myself and a friend on guitar with another friend accompanying me on vocals. We'll be singing "I Can Only Imagine". I feel quite honored to do this for his family. I'll be fine once that part of my day is over.
After that I'm taking on the argeuous task of looking for a newer truck. It's not that my truck is old and worn out, I need something a bit smaller and commuter friendly. The gas for my Ram is killing my wallet. It's at $3.25 a gallon and I'm dropping almost $400 a month in gas. Completely rediculous and unacceptable, to say the least. I've narrowed it down to either a Nissan Frontier or a Toyota Tacoma. The Tacoma is my first choice with the Frontier a very close second.
So, I'll hook up with my dad (he's looking for a truck too) and we'll wheel and deal and see what comes of it.

I'm going to be changing my site theme temporarily for the summer. It'll still be Grifter, of course, but the lighter, more relaxed side. Here's a hint: Grifter's toes to the nose. Can you guess?

I think that's it for now. Stay tuned for more exciting adventures.
Adieu, Caio, Later!
