The sky is unbroken and opaque today, humidity knitting up around us. It feels far away from the world's obiter dicta.
I'm going to try to stay right here for the time being.

Random play: ...I'm going to cut you into little pieces
If I had to venture outside today (which, thankfully, I do not have to), this would be playing in my mind.

Random Play: Running over the same old ground
How do you make things new, every day, when days mimic each other, and especially when heading into the perpetually gray or low-light days?
Routines and not-routines. Finding the novel and embedding it in the regular, by seeing. And listening. And doing that again.
Is that growing?
At the very least it's (like) discovering something (new) on the radio.

It's getting to be what I like to call Pink Floyd weather. It has to be something about all the fading light that--you know what?--makes each day different. Huh.
Perhaps I should kick off the season with something new.

How can I escape this irresistible grasp?
1. I know. 80s-era Pink Floyd. I know.
2. But there is an absolutely incredible mullet in this video (around the 2:14 mark)
3. And this song reminds me of boring afternoons working at Randalls grocery store when I was in high school.
4. I was pretty lucky to be able to listen to the radio while I was working at my job during high school.
5. That is why I knew who Robbie Robertson was when I was 17. But didn't truly discover The Band until I was 37.
6. Victoria Beckham's autobiography (from 2001?!) and a video album by Hilary Duff are both titled "Learning to Fly."
7. This is my favorite "Learning to Fly." Not really this one (though the video is rather funny). Too much of an earworm.
8. PF's LTF sits in the middle, straddling meaning and memory. Well, the weight is mostly on memory's side (see number 3).
9. Of all Pink Floyd songs, this one makes me feel something. Even when I heard it bleeding from Wrigley this June into the rehearsal I was in, up the street on Wilton Avenue.
10. I seem to gravitate toward making lists about Pink Floyd.
