it was the mouse. All is well now. I have a new one. it's tiny, but I'll get used to it. my mom bought a cheap one at radio shack just to see if that was the problem and later we're getting a cordless. wooooo
how winter persists. a purity that refuses to leave. cold and crunchy bones. this time has been important for me. i decided early in the new year that i should go walking in the desert, which i did. walking with coyotes and bugs. walking in sand and up hills. walking with my silence and my confusion. walking without anywhere to go. walking for the sake of feeling the ground beneath my feet. surrendering. making little beds. for peace and for sadness. making little beds for each to burrow honestly in. i woke up to see the sun rise every day. i wrote and drank coffee. i read and drank tea. i walked and drank water. i made new rituals. i made time to cry. this time has been very important for me. home now, i am deep in work on the new record. i have a little apartment that looks out over a road where cars move with fury. i like the energy of the city. time moves quickly these days with so many souls wishing collectively for spring to come. this is a great time to be alive. a great time to be an artist. a great time to be aware of blessings. a great time to celebrate peace and understanding. a great time to believe in music and community. a great time to be here now. in a kiss. in sadness or understanding. in finding or losing. in strength of being. peace and love are yours.
until warmer winds carry us...
