She told me that she worked in a Veterinary clinic, and that she had a plan to make millions of dollars, and that she was going to retire just as soon as she could, once her plan started to work for her. Her plan was to record the sounds of the clinic she worked in, and sell the recording, on CD's and tape. She planned to record the sound of the dogs barking, the cats meowing, all day long, and sell the recording to people who lived quiet lives..I told her I thought she was insane, and I handed her my card, and asked her to check out my web site and to call me...She smiled, and she told me that she always knew that one day she would meet an artist, and fall for him in a big way, and at that moment she stold my heart. She was 20 years younger than I was, but at that moment, the age difference didn't even matter... We sat and talked about plans, and dreams, and hopes till the wee hours... then we said goodnight. She said she would call me, but I couldn't be sure if she would or not.
As I drove home I thought to myself, that maybe people who lived quiet lives would be interested in a tape, or CD of the sounds of dogs barking and cats meowing, but I couldn't be sure.
