There's a song stuck in my head, and the song is written by my loving husband. I believe the name of the song is called "MOTH" or something of the sort. The chorus is "there's a moth in my head" with a strange echo that sounds fluttered, much like a moth would. Anyway, I really dig that song.
And since I'm on the subject of songs, let me tell you about a song that makes me feel as if I'm a free woman sitting on the edge of a beach covered in stars and black eyeliner: Dirty Boots by Sonic Youth. Yes, that song makes me feel sexy and free. I don't think I've ever noted that song as making me feel so sultry, however it does.
Here's why: I can close my eyes, that in which the music will take me to a point in my life that I might not have ever lived, but dreamed. You see, there are some thoughts in my head that drown; literally drown. Those thoughts are so muddled and blurred that I can hardly tell if they were real, or something imagined/dreamed. This might seem strange to you, but once you give birth, work full time, cook homeade dinners, volunteer your extra time, are engaged with your child and husbands life, find time for yourself to write a little...have a drink, hear some sounds and chill you might feel the same at my age.
Right now, I am concentrating on the Presedential election, and am doing my part to lobby for my man, Obama. I stand behind him during this race not because he is "hope", but because I feel it's important that McCain not be our President. Having said this, I have felt that Obama's issues appeal more to my standard of living, so in turn I am naturally going to support his canidancy and he is my choice; he has my vote, and I am proud to speak on his behalf, however no matter who you feel is the right person for the job, it's important to cast your vote on election day.
Since I already blogged on the subject of Obama, I think I should get past that subject.
New thought: I am organizing an invitational art show, and hope that the people who will be invited to show will have some interest in showing. I know that Richard Hyslin and Chris Leonard both agreed to show, and they are amazing artists, so it looks like it will be a nice art show. Now please listen, the town I work in is pretty vacant in the arts; no doubt. I am tired of my job constantly juggling the business circa, so decided to add some art/culture to the mix. I was voted as chair for this committee, and even though I feel someone else should have been given that duty I accepted, and since then have taken this committee in a different direction. My job usually consists of PR, Marketing, Photos and Newsletters. It will be refreshing to add an art show to my duties, and am excited about it. Hopefully City Council and Mayor will attend the event and see that this town that I work in is in desperate need of an art venue. It really is - it's the one thing this town MAJORLY lacks, besides a bookstore and good coffee. I have never been in an environment so stuffy, and "art-free". Hopefully some of my ideas will bring some attention to the cultural art center me and others spoke to council about a few weeks ago. We will see...
Until then...good night and good luck
