[quote="Nan"]

and i feel really old and tattered again. wishing for the pine trees and the mountains, and the smell of the air with woodsmoke in it. so i can just lay down and look up at the stars overhead.

{insert rather pathetic sigh here}

We just bought a camper and in July when I retire we hope to spend a lot of time doing just that. There's nothing more restorative, I think, than sleeping in the open air. By a fire. Once long ago when my man and I were lying on the ground sleeping in just such a setting, a noise in the middle of the night startled us. I will never forget his reaction. He raised his body a bit and threw his arm around me to pull me closer, to protect me. He did this in a still sleeping state. It was an automatic reflex and it took me back in time to the beginning so that I said to myself "This is what it feels like to be Adam and Eve."

Nan, I wish your wish for you, too.

Anyone listening to music?

Mine is pretty loud, right now. Ozrics.

DINO is like the first part of dynamic. I think some of us are quite dynamic. I love this thread!

I don't know what Alex needs to do with the "Quote" function ... It seems messed up.

Godsmack. Want to listen? I always listen to this kind of music when I'm working on something I dislike.

In this particular case it's Voodoo.

I'm not the one who's so far away
when I feel the snake bite enter my veins.
Never did I want to be here again
and I don't remember why I came.

Kind of the way I feel about work today.

Okay, now I'm on to Mozart's Clarinet Concerto in A (Adagio). If things don't improve here I'm going to go straight to Rachmaninoff.

I'm listening to Muddy Waters - "you can't spend what you ain't got and you can't lose what you ain't never had." Story of my life....

Turn me onto Ozrics, DirtDawg. Who? What? When? Where?

I'm feeling kind of blue - We have just lost a hero. Kurt Vonegut. I just smoked a few cigarettes in his memory.

Rachy's Piano Concerto No. 2 with Van Cliburn sounds good to me. *wanders off to find the reocrd*

I like No. 2 and No. 4 is also good for work I would rather not do. It evokes images of the Motherland and peasants in turmoil. In other words, I can visualize corporate America.

If you want to go into a trance, try Marin Marais' Bells of Sainte Genevieve

If you want to Tango in the midst of your trance, Piazzolla is your best bet.

I have to run off to work. Can't listen to music there.

Peace to all.

Mister Scrooge stepped out for awhile, so I'm listening to "Set The Controls for the Heart of the Sun", Pink Floyd, of course. Nice counterpoint to all me paperwork ...

I'd join you, but I haven't got any, and it would be a bad idea.

I've just checked, and I appear to have a couple of books of his to read.
