Space, White & Fuzzy



Tasia has left on her annual pilgrimage to the desert and the Coachella Vally Music
and Arts Festival
, with HUGE headliners like Radiohead and Dr. Dre / Snoop Dog.
That leaves me flying solo for a few days, with some stuff planned (dinners, drinking
and some music shows of my own).

It will be nice to re-charge the relationship batteries and be happy with myself
(first and foremost), So I can be a better person when she gets back. I am pretty
much the same person no matter who is around and do the same shit day-in and
day-out. I have a structured schedule I stick with and do not deviate much from.
Work. Gym. Creative time. Me time. Us time. You time. I do wish I was more flexible
in that way and do break out of my box (and comfortability level) on occasion.

But I know that’s not who I am (after 41 years). I enjoy the time I have and the
things I set aside to do. That includes TV time and even sometimes just relaxing.
TRUST ME, I’m never just “sitting around, doing NOTHING”. My brain works 20
hours a day. And I have to get all that energy and creativity out of me. Recharging
is a natural course of action for creative people. Hell, I believe everyone needs to
recharge. We weren’t meant to run and run and run… burning ourselves out.

Take that much needed day off. Take your vacation time. Do something new, fun
and exciting. A new hobby. Go someplace you’ve never been. Look at art.
Get outside and sit in the sun.

Recharge. Renew. Rejuvinate.
