Today is my second e2 birthday.

Last year I made several resolutions that I did not keep, and became irrelevant after a few months. So I’m not going to do that again. Instead, I’m going to talk about something completely different.

It was a few days ago, around 1am. I had finished undressing for bed, and had turned out my lights. I sleep with the curtains open. If it is too dark I can’t relax. If I can't relax I can’t sleep. So I pulled back the curtains, and there was Orion.

I don't know if it's that I haven't been looking at the stars enough, or at the wrong time, or if Orion just isn’t visible all year round. In any case, I haven't seen that constellation for months.

But there he was, like an old friend.


You owe it to yourself to listen to Food For Other Fish by The Mermen (Mesa / Bluemoon Records). With good quality speakers and at high volume.
