good things happen in fours

lost records
































I am in the company of four new songs. They all get mixed together and I forget which one's which.

More recently writing has become a very strange procedure. I write a song that I can't play. I have to learn the piano fluently. Then I have to learn singing over it. I think it's because of all the odd rhythms that the changes are taking on, or the changing time signatures in the piano. I wrote a song today that I still can't play and sing at the same time. Am I outsmarting myself or simply becoming more stupid? In any case, I take breaks and sing the changes out loud to the house plants, while getting water and taking the occasional pee break. Humming on the toilet really passes the time.

Anyway, at this rate I will have another album ready in 7-8 months. Which is good because I feel at this point in my life, time doesn't wait. There are so many things I want to do and simply not enough pee breaks to sit and think about them all.
