She with her honey hair

I have had a million tales to tell and words to weave but have for the most part been without time to spend (waste) blogging, but I did attempt it four times. Three times blogger was 'down for maintenance' and the fourth my computer crashed after I had been typing for a long time, so I stopped trying for a bit out of sheer frustration. It's so hard to get to that place where everything flows nicely, you know? And it's so rare that I've hit that spot and I'm near enough to the computer to make a difference. Oh well, spilt milk as they say.

So, the physical and uninteresting details, summarized nicely:

-going to the gym twice a week, feel great about it
-had a breakup, it was unpleasant
-acquired a hottub (not sure whether this is a compound word or not) which I worship as a deity
-saw an amazing broken social scene concert

I haven't decided yet whether I should just turn my brain into complete mental flow mode or try to pioneer some new and worthless argument transcribed into digital rambling. Either way I suppose it amounts to the same thing.

Today reminds me of 'Mother Revolution'. Just the tune feels right for the day.
Lucky me
I guessed the kind of man
that you would turn out to be
Now I wish that I'd been
wrong and then
I could remember
to breathe
And all along the Watchtower
the night horses and
the black mares
ready themselves for the outcome
for the strange times
upon us

But what you didn't count on
was another Mother of
a Mother Revolution
but what you didn't count on
was another Mother of
a Mother Revolution
you could've had me
you could've had me
you could've had me
Right there beside you
you could've had me boy
you could've had me yeah
you could've had me
Right there beside you

A wife on loan
in a cafe in old El Paso
Next I go to
Seven Gates and
my sister's Bass Bonanza
And all along her Watchtower
the night horses and
the black mares

steady themselves for the outcome
for the strange days
upon us

What you didn't count on
was another Mother of
a Mother Revolution


Hmm... ironically relevant.

Ok, so what's really been up lately is that I'm getting excited, excited for life, for school to be over, for summer, for japan, for experiences and emotions and friends and enemies and all that shit. And I'm hoping it might last for a little bit, at least until the sun starts coming out a bit more. Which isn't to say that I'm in a state.

I think I'm looking forward to summer because it will be my first living downtown, and it will be a reprieve for some creative time. I may even finish some paintings... may. No promises.

That's all for now. More to come.
