Superstar Wiggle
I must be short since it is the months of summer, which not only means I ought to be out in the sun but also that my computer is packed away in storage and therefore i am using a roommates computer. Why a roomate if it's summer? Well, I am halfway in between the long journey through two week of shows at the Emerging Artists of Ledges and Bones here in LA and am staying with my future roommates. The apartment is cozy, friendly, and eclectic and I have adopted two turtles left abandoned from the dorm-room shuffle and also rediscovered the jer oy of cooking. Life is exciting but as always, I am struggling to find the balance of loving where I am and wanting to be somewhere different. I can already tell that the workshops of this summer and the one-hour trip to my love will run-out these feelings so I need to find a way to remedy them. Why is it that no matter how good a situation is, I will want just a little bit more, someone else with me, a little less of this, and maybe for everything to occur at a different time? Never satisfied is a sad way to live because that attitude truly robs life of all experiences by shifting the mind away from now and to some place that is virtually imaginary, or even non-existent. I think something inside needs to change so that I can put my who self into where I am and learn to accept it for all its beauty instead of imagining something different. It's beautiful to dream, but not when it destroys the ability to ever wake and see reality for it's real magic. Tomorrow is a wonderful thing already and I am convicted that I will see it for exactly what it is. My mind is tired, my body is cranky, and my heads a little creeped out at being alone in someone elses home so sleep is my remedy. I'll steal this laptop again soon and hopefully learn how to type more efficiently on it so that every two seconds i don't hit escape or line-skip. I miss you all!
