walbournHappy Midsummer all. Blessed be!
Had a good day... Hand brunch with a friend at Alkai Cafe, and then browsed Crate & Barrel for the requisite wedding gift for the co-workers wedding this evening. The sun came out about 15 minutes before the ceremony, so it turned out to be really nice. Food was good--although to all you health nuts out there: vegan wedding cakes made without refined sugar do in fact turn out to taste exactly like icing on trail rations (pemmican to be exact). I'm home for the evening to hang with my kitty and relax. Tomorrow is the TERRA rit, which I'm hoping to make.
Spent most of the day listening to Fisher's Uppers & Downers album. A lot of great songs on there, and of course I'm partial to the Downers CD. The Uppers album has an awesome cover of Dream On by Aerosmith. My fav so far for all its melancholy piano/vocal beauty is
"gone are the chances I have passed by
sown on the seeds the wind
time can be nothing but pain in disguise
I'll never see you again
and it's too late to think of all that I've left behind
dreams that have faded from view
too late too late I've burned all my bridges with you
and I can't walk on water
the road that I've traveled is all that I know
paved with each piece of my soul
and it's taken me far but left you behind
and I'm longing to see you again
but it's too late to think of all that I've left behind
dreams that have faded from view
too late too late I've burned all my bridges with you
did I reach for a sky that wasn't my own
lost in my own world now I can never come home
to you
and it's too late to think of all that I've left behind
dreams that have faded from view
too late there's no turning back
nothing that I can undo
and I can't walk on water"
