Major Dude and Early Mornings

Last night I found a great song by Steely Dan. I love Steely Dan as it is, and anyone who knows my musical tastes knows I'm a sucker for encouraging lyrics. If you can brave the oddness, go listen to the song. Here is the chorus:

Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you my friend
Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again
When the demon is at your door
In the morning it wont be there no more
Any major dude will tell you

Yes, Wilco fans, their version of Any Major Dude is a cover (surprise surprise). But I won't open up that can of worms.

So we had an early morning. Alan has taken to running first thing (and I mean in the wee hours, 6ish). It isn't even 11am and I feel like most of my day is behind me. It was nice to walk downtown while the air was still breathable; these Kentucky Septembers are brutal at times.

I'm trying to take Steely Dan's advice, seeing my world as a minor world that-- despite all the little breaks-- will eventually fall together again.
