Humble.
I can't help but feel peaceful today, after enduring a very silly music making session with Oscar and Jake last night everything seems to lack kinetic energy. Maybe this is an illusion brought on by fatigue or maybe it is because my mind has little to comment on?
Last week was pretty busy as I had to help with the last bits of organization of 'Bleep Bleep' (Birmingham techno night) as well as playing host for Gus Brown (Our guest Dj/Producer) as well as preparing to go on my first camping trip.
Camping is funny old thing, although I hate to pigeonhole myself as being middle-class, I really can't help the fact that as a child my Dad would not even contemplate as an option. Now am I older understand just how very lucky I am to have gone abroad and to have stayed in some fantastic places and even how I may have taken for granted holiday's that previous boyfriends had paid for, and in sense I feel quite guilty for not really knowing the value of money. Anyway, I prepared for the trip with an open mind and really tried to embrace the idea of basic living for a few days, although upon arrival this became most difficult as torrential rain fell and the wind blew in a fierce way. Whatsmore our tent was dwarfed by this weather and crept in while we slept which was the icing on the cake really! The 2nd day fared better with the sun's appearance and I admit that the sea air really cleared my head, it's amazing how just looking at it can effect you emotionally. It's so big, wild and without sounding too cliche it's so free. I think that alone made the experience worthwhile. I also adore Oscar's parents and I feel indebted to their kindness.
Anyway, I really need a cup of tea.
