Thoroughly enjoying listening the new Arcade Fire album and spent an hour last night looking through the links of their "enhanced" version. There are youtube videos of various musicians, essays by George Orwell, articles about town planning (the suburbs) and a fair share of internet oddness. It's an insight into the kind of ideas that have influenced the music and it's a bit of fun, a mystery tour.
It's been a very strange summer, some good news, a really difficult time, joy and madness. I've dashed about like a mad thing, making sure all the plates in my life keep on spinning at the top of those sticks. I really fancy a day off for myself, without anything to think about, but I'm afraid it just won't happen. Of course, I think this is ok, and it's what I wanted, to be busy. I just didn't bank on how tired I would get. Although not everything is in my control.
So, I'm loading up the music and I'm going to get a bit of fresh air, then back to fix up the house and maybe watch a film.
A few things I'd like to happen. Like to meet someone who can help me out with the Press. Would like to finish painting the doors white. Would like to get another bike (of course...) Hope that I can have some early nights.
