Even in North Carolina it’s rare to get two days more diametrically opposed than these two. Yesterday was the most beautiful day imaginable–mild, temperate, sunny, perfect for a picnic or a nap in the grass, possibly both. This morning–sheets of rain, dark clouds, hail, frigid blasts of wind… I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: This state’s weather patterns are on crack.
The stress this morning has abated somewhat after a fanatically productive first hour in the office, knocking out items on the to-do list left and right. Still hasn’t subsided completely, but it’s only 10:30–I have the rest of the day to button down.
Nothing interesting this morning, folks, even by my oh-so-lofty standards (note: sarcasm). Actually there are some things–stay tuned for a filtered entry later.
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satelite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin…
I love this album. Love. Favorite U2 period, no question (1990-1997).
Bono’s lyricism has always been interesting to me. Ever notice how he makes the ends of the sentences rhyme, but in between he’ll pack as many words as possible? I never noticed that until I heard Johnny Cash sing his lyrics in “The Wanderer.” Having someone with their own distinctive vocal style sing Bono’s lyrics really makes their quirks and ideosyncrasies stand out.
I love that song.
I don’t miss NC weather…much.
Same weather here…
OMG FILTERED.
Filtered in this case = friends-only. But “filtered” sounds cooler. Oooh.
You look like Kirsten Dunst in that picture. This is not a bad thing.
Oh… well OMG FRIENDS ONLY.
Thanks. I don’t really see it, but thanks.
