Yay, I'm getting a relaxing night even as The Work Trip approaches and I didn't sleep well last night.
Mindful toy night, can't go all out, but I can access the relaxation that this butt play affords me, enough to swap over to music appreciation in the living room with the $$,$$$ stereo playing a shuffle of all the music I acquired during 2013 when I was most heavily under the influence of K's musical direction and I began to really get it.
It's why when he moved out I made some music of my own. I still have the recordings, but I lost the files, I cannot edit them or reassemble them or even learn from them. I can only listen to them. And appreciate what I was able to do during that fraction of my life immediately after K moved out when I had no idea whether I'd have any sort of life with him at all.
But we did continue a life together, so -- stopped making music --
And ever since I know that I can't get into making music again until I am able to let go of something large, like my job, or somebody I lived with who isn't coming back. I will need a lot of mental and emotional reach to do that again, and to do it even better.
It's basically why I have to retire as soon as I'm able, and why I put up with the job I have until then, because I'll need the reach to do that again, and to do it even better.
