I want to put a torch to my throat, it hurts so much. I take in heavy doses of pillow, tea, and episodes of 24 season one instead. But really, a torch is what I need.

Arthur and Ivan have been teaching me Spanish. It started with the song Todo los Dolores, probably one of the most beautiful songs ever to invade my soul, and then last night it progressed to sessions and lessons of the heart. In this instance, I was expressing woe over the boneshook shivery mess of my week. "Necesitas calentar tu corazón," was what he said. And that was that.

This is a song of mine I actually like, even though it has so many mistakes. I still hope you'll like it. I left my window wide open again, and several birds joined along in the recording. Some of the birds reminded me of brutal death, but at least one sounded optimistic. It is very much a love song.
