Of course you post this when it is way too close to HONK! for me to get a flask.
If I didn’t already have two flasks, only one of which I’ve ever used, I’d get one of these.
For those of us who write better with a little hooch, try out this little notebook flask. Love it! I’ll be filling mine with Pimm’s No. 1. $24

March 23-25. March Madness Marching Band is heading back to Austin TX for the Honk! Festival. I can’t wait!!!! Excited Picc-Xie.
Until then, enjoy one of our several performances from last year.
Caught Up in a Dream

I have been obsessed with this song lately. I went through a long period where I just gave up on my dreams. I didn’t go after what I wanted in life. I don’t know if I thought I didn’t deserve it, or if I was afraid of failing. Either way, I gave up a lot. I’m finally back in a place where I have dreams. I am thinking of my future. I have hope. Everyone should have that. It’s precious.
“I close my eyes and everything will be alright. Here in my fantasy living in harmony. Make my dream come alive.”
I can finally say with confidence that everything IS going to be okay.
Tear stained pages count each
of the days of my life. Faded pencil
marks record each up and down.
Inscribe my deepest thoughts -
fears - incredible joys - secret desires.
A bright glimmer of hope followed by a
shattered little girl. Hiding in the dark
hoping to write all the pain away.
Knowing somehow my pen can make sense of
what my heart simply refuses to understand.
In my hour of need I turn back to you.
Hoping to find my peace. Wanting to scream
out in pain, but returning to my world of dreams.
Finding my comfort pouring my soul onto the page.
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.~Emily Dickenson
