Paint the Town Beige

..like an old desperado who paints the town beige.--Robert Earl Keen, from the song "Paint the Town Beige"

I know the feeling. We all do sometimes, a little worn, a little ragged around the heart, a little weary from living the drama of taking another breath. (But thank God for that breath!) Sometimes you just have to laugh, especially when you get up the courage to go out and paint the town red,, only to stumble home leaving it a boring shade of beige. Heck, it almost makes your side hurt from laughing when you stop and think about it. God is too good to us foolish sheep, doing our best and worst with these days we are given. Let's thank Him for His patience. 'Thank You Lord!'
