C_ asks me why I’m up so early and I say, “I dunno, because we’re different?”
I like the quiet in the morning and a little peace goes a long way.
But I know I’m up for a different reason. To sneak downstairs and listen to my new favorite album. Shush. I’ve mentioned her before.
The last time I met with her it was The Execution of All Things. Now it is More Adventurous. And let me tell you, I’m a huge sucker for well placed hand clapping in a song. I believe the hand claps are perfectly in tune with the song – if that is even possible. I’m sure you don’t believe me. Please, have a listen. Towards the end of the song – best hand claps ever.
Right after the line:
“Then my mom and I went to identify the body”
Because you say so, I will go listen. Even though Mallory begged me to download it last summer so she could then make a CD from my iTunes and I haven’t listened to it at all.
Bless me Father, for I have sinned…
OH! Have you head Porcupine Tree’s “Trains”? Pretty good second runner up for the clapping thang. Give it a whirl, Teddy.
And I was just thinking about you a couple days ago. No lie. I swear.
