waitingmanStill playing catch-as-can with LJ time. We will return you to normal service as soon as possible...
Lots of conversations & reading over the last fortnight are bouncing around my head, leading me to some conclusions ~ not all of which are good ones.
* I need a holiday to break out of a rut that's sapping my enthusiasm for lots of things, including music, work & leisure time. I need distance, perspective, direction, rejuvenation... reinvention?!... perhaps not.
* After 25 years of playing original music, maybe it's time to stop trying. As Kinky Friedman put it "When the horse dies... get off."
* I need to watch my language ~ not in a profane @#%!! way, but in my everyday attitudes & conversations. Where does one get a wearable, unobtrusive 24hr recording/monitoring device?!
* There are D&M conversations I need to have with a few people, 2 of which make me uncomfortable to think of them (the conversations, not the people). But they are necessary.
Maybe then I can finish other languishing projects that time, lassitude & just plain inefficiency have consigned to the pile of stuff labelled 'Later'.
