What Is That Noise?!

Every time I hear the song Serenade by Schubert I think of an episode of something or other featuring, I think, Donald Duck. It shows him being extremely depressed and the ocean luring him in to kill himself. But at the end he rallies and escapes the ocean. Over the whole thing a narrator comments on the heroes struggle.
Has anyone out there seen or heard of this episode? It's driving me crazy. I can find no reference to it anywhere on the internet.

I'm So Heavy In Your Arms

I have a couple job leads I'm actually a bit excited about. Mostly because they're full time. I have two part time jobs but it just seems kinda stressful to be going to two different places when I could just get all my hours in one place. Plus these jobs both pay better than one or both of my current jobs. The only thing that makes me stumble a bit when going for new jobs is that the jobs I currently have are both fall back jobs. They're the jobs you get when all else has failed. So if I quit and go somewhere else and it doesn't work out, where do I go? But I suppose that's part of the danger of life. You can't always have a safety net, no matter how much you try. Blah.

On the writing front, I just wrote AROUND five hundred words. Give or take a solid hundred. Probably take. DON'T JUDGE ME! I had a lot on my plate today! I even worked out even though I have been feeling tired lately and didn't want to! So you can take that judgment where the sun don't shine. Of course I'm referring to under a shade tree.

Sometimes I say crazy stuff that makes total sense in my head but then people tell me I'm crazy. I'm totally not! Trust me, I got this.

I've been thinking about trying to write for a website. I would really enjoy that but I have always stumbled because I feel my writing style is not professional enough. I don't pay a lot of attention to the rules of the English language (see entire history of this blog) and I'm pretty sloppy about stuff because I just want to create and not be constricted sometimes! But then I realized HEY! That's what an editor is for. So I think I'm going to try for that. Thanks to my lovely wife and my father for the encouragement on that front.

This is a site I'm recently dying to see. Not sure where the desire came from but it's growing:
