Amnesiac
The other night, amongst other things i had one of the most fulfilling conversations/moments of my life, something few and far between these days. I decided on a drunken whim to ask a homeless guy if he wanted some beer in exchange for me having a go on his guitar. Being in open D Major, which is pretty much my favourite tuning anyway, i had a full on session to the point where a few people on the bridge we were sitting on came past and stuck around for a bit, we talked about the failings of the local area to provide for those below the businessman holiday type brackets etc, cliche stuff you'd expect to hear from those left behind, but he expressed it with an eloquence i wouldn't personally have expected. Other than this nights have been hard, alcohol is only bringing out rage amongst other things, probably due to the frustration im feeling due to injury right now, attempted to snowboard today but the broken coccyx is no better, i suppose a week and a half is too soon to expect full recovery, but i guess the main worry is playing a painful game of catch up in a months time. I haven't listened to any new music for a time, if anyone could suggest something above the credit crunch for me to think about then that'd be great. Drunken negative moments aside, i had one of the most euphoric listening to Yndi Halda walking through the snow the other night, i hear it's snowing back home so all of you should try something along the same lines, simple pleasures i suppose.. I'm pressed for time, and seemingly wrote a whole, frankly ridiculous passage on many a thing in a stupour the other night which may find its way onto here when i'm feeling a little less self concious.

American Football, whilst walking the dog in the snow. That was good.
I haven't heard anything from you boys for so long. I do keep reading your posts!
