Why?
Why I haven’t written here for a while, I have no idea? It is not that my life has become any less relevant virtually, it is perhaps that I have become lazy. Changes are afoot for me, a move, and stuff. The Wire has finished, well it finished for me a while ago, I spent last winter watching it and have struggled to find something to fill the gap. I have considered re-watching it, I will consider this a bit more until someone tells me it is stupid. I saw someone buying all the boxsets in HMV the other day and was very jealous of the joy she had to come. Perhaps I could do that thing like in Eternal Sunshine and erase that I had ever seen itfrom my memory. Is that more or less ridiculous than re-watching? Depends who determines the ridiculous I suppose.
I am off to Manchester now on a plane in the wind. I do hate to fly. Especially for work. Flying for holiday is bearable because I at least want to get where I am going.
Anyway anyway. Change is good, as good as a rest apperently (not true I would think, a rest is one of the best things ever. Rest = eating, sleeping, reading, walking. Which in turn means no pressure to do anything other than nice things, things to nourish the soul. Change = packing boxes, cleaning, stopping all bills and getting new bills, paying stupid money for stupid deposits, and other things that are no way as good as resting on any level)
See you all on the other side of my Manchester trip where I promise to be full of the joys of autumn.
Here is a quote from David Lynch which I like a lot
“Once I saw a row of sheep being slaughtered and they all looked basically the same, one sheep after another, and I’m sure there’s beings that look at all of us and we’re pretty much basically the same but when you put a name to them they kind of separate out and it’s true, you could look at a bee named ‘Riley’ and the bee would take on a certain character. A bee named ‘Bob’ would suddenly be unique.”
