So, it's been so long since I've written that I feel like an impostor. It's crazy how time flies, and with it being summer, between work (which is very often) and play (not often enough), I have been very easily distracted. And, surprisingly, uninspired.
To bring you up to speed… I've had visitors often, birthday sing-a-longs/jam sessions, dinners, drinks, I switched to a Quebec driver's licence, joined a developing non-profit organization (which aims to help youth receive arts education), registered myself as a business, worked, went to festivals and comedy shows, landed more freelance work and worked more, applied for real jobs, and got a real job. Which I only started two days ago and love already.
It's unreal how scatter-brained, maybe even overwhelmed, I've been in the last month or two - and only a tiny part of that had to do with work. I missed family and friends more this month than really any other since I moved. It's been that weird, kind of low feeling that makes you lazy. I want to do nothing. But instead I drown myself in work. But then, half the time I sit down to work I stare at a blank page or screen for ages until I actually get cracking. WTF?! I'm hoping that now with a full-time job, it'll help. Perhaps all I needed was a bit more security - worry and fear tend to make me do crazy things. Only time will tell.
So, tonight my roomie's away for the night. I'm staying in. Partially because last night was a gong show with friends visiting from TO and I'm exhausted, but mainly because my dinner-drinks-date cancelled… To her credit, she has a proper date with a good-looking gentleman tonight (lucky lady!), in place of our date with some burgers and poutine. Instead, I will tidy up the debaucherous mess that is my apartment, have a phone date with one of my besties in TO to catch up, and hopefully sit down at the keys to try and develop some progression of notes that resembles music. That'll be a laugh!
