hide and seek

it's 11am and cloudy, the rain stopped and i'm sure the humidity has let up a bit. its one of those days that warrants walking down the street indepentantly on a mission with no real mission, really craving a cigarette though you quit three years ago. oblivious to other people as people...moving, but no different than that peice of paper blowing across the street. you walk past them like the world is put on slow motion, you'd have to ask twice if someone actually stopped to ask you something.
...sunglasses on because although the sun is resting, its still unnaturally bright. Queue the muggy air to create the temporary effects of a hangover headache. its been a while, but i still remember. On the happy side of indifferent - if there's a word for that i'd endulge enlightenment - imogen is singing to me, a song called hide and seek. just her voice and some added effect that makes it sound slightly distorted, like a flanger and a guitar or pushing the piano pedals (not that i can pretend to know anything about music and her effects...technically speaking.) my friends outside the window are waving their leaves again, gently encouraging some thoughtfullness so i thought i'd better honour that.
in with the love, out with the jive. today is a good day to let it go...run, be free!


i'll most likely read this in another hour and post again in my own defense.
...hippies with mood swings..such fun you know. sounds like a yin day to me.

ciao

HAHA! yes, yes, i'm the equivalent of daisy dukes that scream 'look at me' in the world of blog advertising...you ass.
I was encouraging you to write! and for the record, advertising is our sweet min-o's specialty, isn't that right?

...i used to stay up past my bedtime too...can you even imagine??

i was one bad ass monkey.

yes free advertising is the holy grail of advertising - companies would kill to get a spot on the news or on a popular indie website because not only does it offer high exposure, it also helps build a more dependable and reliable corporate image (it's called public relations).

wish i'd known u then too, datura ;)
