I hate to double-post in one day, but.....
by musicgypsy on July 11, 2012No CommentsJust wanted to put it out there that I'm actually really happy right now. Really happy, considering my circumstances. That's what writing does to me :) And I can see little shining things floating out of the corner of my eyes and maybe they're wee fairies come to remind me that I need to fall asleep reading On the Road again.
:D

These are the most important days of my life.
by musicgypsy on July 11, 2012No CommentsWell, so far, at least. I graduate this year. I'll make some choices that will decide the course of my entire life. Later on, I'll want to know what I was thinking when i made these decisions. Right?
Sigh. I'm trying to motivate myself to take up writing a daily diary again. Or at least weekly. There are memories and thoughts that I won't want to miss when I'm old and grey, but lord isn't it a load of work! Can never keep it up, even when I have a lovely book to write in. I think I'll have to do more letter and chatlog saving, printing out and photo taking. Maybe that'll make up for lost thoughts.....

Well, look at this. Relaunch, leraunch
by musicgypsy on July 08, 2012No CommentsNot sure if i hate it or if i just miss the old style SM...but oh well, i'm sure it'll be fine. I do miss the small print though. Good God, everything doesn't have to be so monstrous...

When all else fails......sleep.
by musicgypsy on May 31, 2012I may or may not have saved a life today. Who knows. She's a 12 yr old suicidal kid. If it's even possible for a 12 yr old to really mean to kill herself, I don't know. But I just may have helped her, poor thing. That's what I'm hoping anyway. ~~~ elbow. what a beautiful sound to my ears. Nobody understands how deeply they've affected me. I don't even understand how deeply. I can't understand how music can reach deep inside of someone's thistle-carpeted soul and pull out honeysuckles. And not only pull them out but also plant them so they drip bittersweet memories out of the person's eyes and lips and fingertips. I can't understand, but I know it happens. And that's why I'm having trouble writing this feature article on music's affect on emotions. It's far too deep for me to fathom. It's somewhat like my relationship with God in that way.No Comments -
late May is like this to me
by musicgypsy on May 23, 2012Her melancholy was like a darkness in her; but when she thought of him it seemed that through the darkness a forked lightning ran. ~Mervyn PeakeNo Comments -
Let your spirit stay unbroken.
by musicgypsy on April 21, 2012Peter Gabriel...gah, he's so amazing. I FUCKING LOVE HIS MUSIC. ALL OF IT. In other news, I'm being consumed. By everything in my life. I think Peter Gabriel and Elbow are some of the few things that are keeping me sane right now.No Comments -
Today
by musicgypsy on March 30, 2012We get up early just to start cranking the generator Our limbs have been asleep we need to get the blood back in 'em We're finding every day several ways that we could be friends We keep on churning and the lights inside the house turned on And in our native language we are chanting ancient songs And when we quiet down the house chants on without usNo Comments -

Man, I just love the way hands look when they play jazz piano. It's just beautiful to me, I don't know why. It reminds me of that tiny scene in "Rhapsody in Blue" from Fantasia 2000, where you see cartoon @Gershwin playing through a New York window and his hands, man, you look at them and they're just plain gorgeous. how they move. And even though it's a cartoon, you can see it's just exactly how Gershwin would have moved his hands in real life....
