One too many mornings
Oct. 12th, 2008 09:38 pm ...and a thousand miles behind.
It is sort of funny how sometimes a Dylan song can just sum up a person's world view in under ten words. That is mastery if you ask me. On the way to school today, the radio played an unreleased Dylan cover of a Robert Johnson song, it was supposed to have gone on his album "World Gone Wrong" which is definitely one of my favorites, but did not make the cut. Too bad, since it was really sort of awesome and eloquent and stripped down, and Dylan's gravelly and time-tested and time-torn voice was really on the money for it. Either way, it really put me in a Dylan frame of mind, which admittedly, is never that much of a stretch.
So today was really a day from hell, thus the icon. I definitely took that right turn at about 8.30 this morning, but luckily took a left turn about nine hours later. About a pack of cigarettes and a huge iced cappuccino later, life seems to be looking up a little.
Time now for a digression...
And then there is Dexter, which, admittedly, started out a little tame this season, but seems to be revving up nicely.
