The world was moving, she was floating above it, and she was...


"She was glad about it... no doubt about it
She isnt sure about where shes gone *
No time to think about what to tell them
No time to think about what shes done
And she was"


~~~~~~~~~
From the song "And she was" by David Byrne,
performed by the Talking Heads on their 1985 album "Little Creatures"

Am I the only one?

I have a soundtrack that plays along in my head, quite alot.

Things happen, or dont.
Events begin, end.
Feelings crest, then fall.
Often precipitously.

Regardless, I cant count the number of times a song drifts into my consciousness that fits, either literally or figuratively. Sometimes both.

Whats really telling are the ones that are there in my personal ether when I wake up in the morning. Who needs therapy?

What is that? Para-sailing or something? I'm not sure I could do that!

Lavender said...

BetteJo Yes indeedy, its parasailing - and its easy - really! I often fly in my dreams, so this was a must do thing - but you never know BetteJo, you might like it :)

Wow, that looks fun. It would scare the crap out of me, but I'd give it a go. I haven't got a fast boat, but I do have a parachute. Now, what could I attach it to?... I don't think the local bus goes under any low bridges...maybe....

Barkfoot ROFL! I love the idea, and its do-able! The only problem I see with it is, you dont have a soft 'spash down' like you get over the sea LOL!
