In the still of the night...
Just finished dinner...organic mac & cheese...yes, it's late here on the West coast...L. and I lost track of the day, but isn't that what Sundays are for? I wish I'd gone to church, however...I'm a lapsed Catholic convert and really need to find a nurturing, progressive Christian community...Congregationalist, Unity, and the Quakers are all under consideration...and just possibly a return to the Church of Rome...L. is downstairs watching the Olympics (men's rowing...yayyyyy USA!!)...and I'm in my office waxing nostaligic over music I loved as a teenager and while in college...music now known as Classic Rock...I remember when it was cutting edge rock, okay? Genesis, Yes, Heart, Fleetwood Mac, Eagles, Eurythmics (well, I was in NYC by then), and the list goes on and on...this music is still so dear to my heart...takes me places I'd forgotten about, but remains fresh and new at the same time...we really can thank The Beatles for a lot, can't we? Tonight, however, is reserved for Carly Simon...I think I have every CD she's ever released...what is it about her I like so much? Her lyrics, her songs, her total command as a musician, that unmistakable voice? And if any of you haven't heard Ann Wilson's "Hope & Glory" or Annie Lennox's "Songs of Mass Destruction", do yourself a favor and go directly to Amazon and get them used...well worth the price...maybe I'll read a little now...still pushing my way through Eckhart Tolle's "A New Earth: Discovering Your Life's Purpose"...not for the faint of heart, trust me...also found a cool new book by Marianne Williamson called "The Age of Miracles: Embracing the New Mid Life", written specifically to the 45-50 year old crowd of which I'm deffo a part...then again, maybe I'll just hang out in bed with L. for awhile and watch movies and talk and cuddle..."Monday mornin' you sure look fine..." peace and good will to each of you...
