Parallel Wine Bistro on January 31st…
I’ve been keeping myself well occupied. I’ve been doing a lot of video editing, audio editing – watching progress bars and occupying myself as my computers are occupied. I’ve felt pretty productive. We’ve had parties, both music and Magic, and in a couple of weeks a birthday as well.
I’m turning 40.
Interestingly, for as crazy as that sounds to me, I think it’s coming as more of a shock to my mother.
I’ve certainly been hauling too much gear. I can feel it in my shoulders and in my spine.
At the moment I’m editing video, thinking about age. I’m watching Richard Weil perform one of his songs about memory. It’s a recurrent theme in his writing. I Love watching people perform and in him I find a beautiful, poignant honesty that I don’t often see in performers. He crafts really Lovely folk songs, and today, as the sunshine filters down finally finding wintertime Catonsville, I’m feeling pretty susceptible to his words. I think about aging and the ravages of time and about accepting them.
