i woke up this morning with a song stuck in my head. i tried to sing the melody to brendan, but didn't know any of the words. part of me thought it might have the word 'sunrise' in it. it was such a lovely song, and it irritated me that i couldn't pin down what i knew it from. part of me wondered if it was from 'juliet, naked' the other day. brendan even sent me the soundtrack to figure out if it was from that, and i didn't find anything that stuck out to me.
then out of the blue, the word 'waterloo' came to mind. and i realized it WAS from that movie. so now i'm listening to it whenever i get the chance. being in the grasp of a song, really moved me to want to write.
i actually think, despite all my life changes, the absence of music that sinks its teeth into me is probably the main reason why i haven't been prolifically writing the way i used to.
in my current mind-set, i hope to write more regularly again. now that otis is two, life is turning a corner for me, and i'm excited about having more freedom. and being more connected with myself and others.
