These last 4 months, I admit, have been quite pathetic form, even for my standards. Disappearance. The culprit this time though, is a very strange reality to be faced with: My Engineer side of life has been bonkers insane, not necessarily in a good way. Not in a bad way either, because at least it occupies my time, and predominates my thoughts, saving me from incessantly day dreaming and meshing idle thoughts. Its actually not good when you have too much time to think. But its definitely not in a good way either because Im constantly spent now for months on end. Working way too many hours, 60-70 range American style, which is almost not acceptable when one lives in Rancho Relaxo Europe. Its thrown me for some much of a loop that I havent worked out in 4 months, and have only gone for one run that whole time. Probably in the worst shape of my life, at current... just because Im even more driven to, ummm.. not be bothered. Way more so than my usual and Ive lost balance. So all in all the work occupation has just been too overwhelming. The gains from the week off with Morris along with another weekend escape to London have long been eclipsed.
So Im going away. I need to cheer up! That previous paragraph was too darkish. I just sound too many shades of gray. Soooo... Tomorrow.. Im heading back to an Empire state of mind, for a week. Maybe Ill blog there. When my mind is straight. Or straighter... Im already looking forward to easy access to Magnolia Bakery. And New York Deli Sandwhichs with loads of roastbeef and pickle, and wrapped really nice and tight in wax paper... its always the little details.
In the mean time. Here is easily the best album cover Ive seen in my life. It makes me giddy. With this cover, from their new album Surfing the Void, the Klaxons got even more awesomer.
