Not Waving But Drowning

Not Waving But Drowning

I’m on the downward spiral again – doubting myself and feeling that I am incapable of being good at ANYTHING other than just drawing oxygen. It feels like everything I touch is the opposite of a Midas Touch. And now it really does feel like it IS all too late. I look at what it…

The Reminiscence Bump – Examples

I would have liked to have written more in relation to Jim’s post yesterday, but I had just written my waffling blurb about Space (or more accurately what the song Space means to me) for MMM and I didn’t have that much writing left in me. So I left it for today. I’m not sure…

You’ll Regret It Tomorrow

Video waffling. Yes! Back to “talking”. Will try not to make a habit of it. I’d skip over the final 10 mins. Sorry for the silence towards the end.

Almost The Kind Of Post I Miss

Some poetry. Inner thoughts. Something beyond the mere plug of a gig, a product. Of course, that needs to be done, I guess. But there is that human touch I was so starting to miss. The end message seems to be “buck up, kid. Nothing lasts forever.” Yeah. Don’t remind me. And don’t remind you…

I’m Done – Prip Has Left The Building

I didn’t see the point of SMOG. I mean…the posting thing? I’m not concerned for myself. I don’t feel I have anything much to this group to contribute to be honest. I tend not to with any of the SM groups. Not posting to them myself anyway. Not very often. But I comment on posts…

SMOG – You Can Sense It In The Air…

Well, what the Simple Minds fandom really needed was yet ANOTHER Facebook group. Sigh. I’m already in f*** knows how many. But the latest is “official”. Excuse my initial cynicism but…what’s the objective? Simple Minds Official for band news only? Jim posts there. Fuck all the wonderful interactivity that used to happen? No more visitor…

I Wish You Were Here

Is *not* a thing I imagine Jim is thinking right now of me. Lol. He’s probably relishing being 12,000 miles away! If there is even a thought about it at all. In the story of the Kerr family’s ALMOST emmigration to Australia, I am also glad his mum had a change of heart, because there…

An Artist’s Worth…

Well, it may sound weird still to call yourself an artist…but you can do it with affirmation and pride. A body of work that shows its worth, that you’ve received accreditation and validation for. So, it may sound odd to your “Weird Ears”…but it is wholly justified. A case in point…just how the rest of…

The Inner Life Of Animals

I really, really want to thank him for sharing this book. It is utterly FASCINATING! But I just dare not. “Operation Stay Away” hasn’t even lasted two days! It got off to a false start in the first place from him sharing this and talking about birds (though ultimately the post was about Elbow). I’m…

Day Two Of “Operation Stay Away”…

And…fuck he’s making it hard! It’s a phenomenal write-up…and the thing I actually love most about him…despite all the silly ogling. I think I am genuinely in love with this man… Oh, how I want to reply. To say SOMETHING…if nothing more than “Wow!” and “Thank you!” You know…all that thought-provoking stuff that would have…
