I checked out "Hot August Night" from the library. It'd been years since I heard it, as I have it on vinyl, but not on turn table.
There are songs that I like a lot, one that I have picked out for the foyer for my funeral ("Done Too Soon," 'cause why lyrics posted below, but it'll have to be an instrumental cover for use in the church); and a few that I don't like and that I either avoid playing the side, or in this case, skipped.
Anyway, I got through the Heart Health, and took a walk around, and then did the 5K (3+ miles) At Your Own Pace on the cycle.
Afterwards I went to the mirror and finished up with weights while Neil introduced the band. I remembered going to a music store in Eugene in a particular mall, about 1976, and the sales guy was excited to see me and a friend going through the Neil Diamond albums. His name wasn't on any of the albums, but he had been a studio musician (drummer) for one of the records and substituted/backed up the regular drum on one of the tours.
The first CD was done. I went ahead and took care of putting everything back and leaving all clean, and when I switched the system back to television, "Seinfeld" had just started on the TBS channel. Now that would have been fun to watch.
Here are today's numbers:
Miles Calories Time RPM Heart rate average
5.84 183 30:00 67 127
3.77 100 22:15 62 126
Feels like Saturday today. Haven't the foggiest reason way.
And for what it's worth, I saw him in Portland in 1986. Mom and Cathy took me to his concert for my birthday present.

For bein' done too soon
