Sunday

vanity

hair cut today at the tangerine. jim said he would help me grow it to the length i want. will see how long it takes to get there.
want the knees length and since it's at the middle of my back now, this could take a few more years.
going to be fun!
last time i had this type of haircut service was in japan.
my head is relaxed. my hair is herbalyish smelling and he made my baby fine hair look soooo yummy.

Wednesday

music

new musicians showing up at the house lately.
nice to hear something other than the usual heavy metal.

let's see. jazz, bluegrass, dig the mandolin j.
oldies from the 70's and 80's with their dad.
love sick blues with jeff.
raunchy country with randy.
and it's really nice. really nice.

they are getting ready to play at the muse, so the heavy metal is back - full force.
told jon to play bare-chested and get a fake nipple ring. something about drummers beating the crap out of their drums makes the girls drool. so i was told.

yeah! think that's what's sexy nowadays?

Sunday

reads

reading to much again lately
this got me.

"What you have made me see," answered the Lady, "is as plain as the sky, but i never saw it before. Yet it has happened every day. One goes into the forest to pick food and already the thought of one fruit rather than another has grown up in one's mind. Then, it may be, one finds a different fruit and not the fruit one thought of. One joy was expected and another is given. But this I had never noticed before - that the very moment of the finding there is in the mind a kind of thrusting back, or setting aside. The picture of the fruit you have not found is still, for a moment, before you. And if you wished - if it were possible to wish - you could keep it there. You could send your soul after the good you had expected, instead of turning it to the good you had got. You could refuse the real good; you could make the real fruit taste insipid by thinking of the other."

C. S. Lewis - Perelandra


desire is difficult to push aside - at least for me
