update on life and Rock and Roll
I just came from the Enzian and a screening of It Might get Loud, the Rock-documentary about a meeting between the Edge, Jack White, and Jimmy Page. Though I am unsure how others might feel about it, I found the film extremely moving and inspiring as an artist. It is the type of film that makes me think 'why the hell am I doing anything else than making art?!' I felt a real connection with the 3 musicians and though I was a fan before, regard their music with much greater esteem.
I also just cam from seeing the film with Amanda. Developments with that situation are... slow at best. However, I am not upset at the least. In fact, the opposite is true. I realized a couple weeks ago that a relationship between us would actually probably be a bad thing. We see too many important things too differently for any sort of serious relationship to work out. I find myself very content with the long hugs and innocent flirtation we share. It is nice to be able to hang out with her without having to worry about what may happen next, or trying to appear cooler than I am, etc. I am more content hanging out with her as a friend than I have been in a while.
I am also a little tipsy... which might have something to do with my general positive feeling. Nothing makes the soul sing more than several glasses of an excellent Pinot Noir.
So yeah... long story short (too late)(actually not quite, I tend to write extremely brief posts; I was just quoting Clue) though the absolute PERFECT opportunity to kiss Amanda presented itself a couple days ago(I may get into that later, but I mean it was absolutely movie perfect) I did not, because for once I feel that the friendship with a girl I like may actually be better than something more serious, and I am ok with that.
Ugh... I have a mild headache and have to work in 8 hours. Time for sleep.
