It takes me a while to catch onto things, or to try something new, like ice cream, I really like vanilla bean ice cream, Breyers makes the best natural vanilla ice cream in my opinion, so I just stick with it and rarely get anything different, unless this flavor is not available then I have to think....

Simple things can sidetrack me and take my conversations elsewhere. A random word pops up catching my attention, and the whole conversation turns down a different road.

With me I can be talking about one subject, but thinking about something entirely different, then a word on the subject I'm thinking of comes into my first conversation, and everything shifts.

The thoughts in my head are always shifting, if you could hear the things I think about, that would be a confusing conversation.

But the thoughts that run through my head most people can't hear, and if you can hear them please let me know so I can look at you while I'm thinking.

Genealogy is a good example, I can start out researching one branch of my family tree and a couple hours later I am on a complete different branch or even in another tree, I can't even remember where I started or how I got here.

I can begin searching a several times Great grandfather down my Dad's line and next I know I am on my Moms line reading about a Great Aunt and her love of ice cream.

Ben and Jerrys came out with an ice cream flavor I wanted to try, I do love ice cream, ice cream is one of my most favorite things in the world, besides new socks and I do have a passion for new socks, but I am getting ahead of myself, because I have written a post about socks but haven't posted it yet, I hope you stay tuned because it will be coming soon.

And coming soon is the wedding date of our son Randy, we will be flying out to attend the wedding, in Montana of all places, but I do like going places that I have never been, and I've never been to Montana.

I'm thinking we should go through Cindy's pocketbook before we leave the house this time, I don't really want to go through the big security scandal again, you remember our little experiences with flying in the past.

Past experience tells me to pack lightly, and make sure you have all of your ducks in a row before you leave the house, and speaking of ducks there was a time when Cindy was babysitting a little girl named Emily, we took her to the zoo and she actually had a duck spit on her, oh man that was quite the experience, Monkeys and Duck Feathers tells the whole story.

The only way to get rid of duck spit (other than wipe it off your shirt) was for us to run by either Micky-Dees or DQ, I don’t get too excited about Mickey-Dees but Emily and I always did like a three-foot tall Ice cream cone….

Oh yeah, Ice cream, Ben and Jerrys came out with a flavor a long time ago that I have wanted to try but just have never gotten around to,  last night my blood sugar was on the low end and for a treat Cindy handed me a small container of Ben and Jerrys "Cherry Garcia" ice cream.

Jerry Garcia, do you remember him? Kind of like Elvis, but with the Grateful Dead and not by himself, this ice cream had to be named for him, I wonder if they named an ice cream for Elvis?

Everybody remembers where they were when they heard that Elvis was dead, I remember where I was when I heard Jerry Garcia had died also.

I was actually driving down Interstate 85 going to the lake, I had just taken the exit I needed when on the radio came the news that he had died, Elvis not Jerry Garcia, I was at my brothers house when I heard about Jerry Garcia.

Cherry Garcia, I want to tell you,  that Cherry Garcia ice cream is amazing, it has cherries, it has chocolate fudge flakes and for the most important ingredient, it has ice cream, did I tell you that I love ice cream?

What is your favorite dessert?
