Some Things I have Noticed (Lately).

It’s been a very busy few weeks. SLAB is up, and ready for you. Waiting. It looks a little like this:

Water Slapped Her Mouth

I certainly hope you can make it. It’s the role of a lifetime for me, and therefore: it feels important.

The other night, after the show, I went to Bramble and Hare with a couple of people. While we were there, a song played. I liked the song. A lot. It’s been stuck in my head for days. I’ve googled it and can’t find any trace of it. The song doesn’t exist. How can this be? Was it a ghost I heard?

In other news: I’ve started re-watching Lost. I love it so much. Have you seen it? You should watch it (or re-watch it). So many layers.

Here are some things I have noticed lately:

1. Suddenly, people in the United States of America seem to give a sh*t about soccer. When did this happen?

2. People say a lot of things.

3. I’m pretty lucky.

4. “Trees are GREAT.” – Gleason Bauer

5. America makes me cripplingly sad.

6. Sometimes, I wonder what it must be like to be a winged insect. To be so attracted to the light that I’m willing to die for it.

7. On a similar note: I sometimes wonder what it must be like to eat a moth, their dusty wings in my mouth. I really only wonder this when I watch Isobel or Yoshimi eat a moth after efficiently and mercilessly hunting one down.

That list of noticing is shorter than I’d like it to be, but I haven’t had a lot of time for noticing lately. That should change here in the next couple of weeks.

In conclusion: some genius (truly) on the internet made a music video for Lana Del Rey’s Cruel World using footage from Jodorowsky’s The Holy Mountain and it’s a pretty accurate audio-visual description of how I feel lately. Watch at your own peril:
