the first few days back in the office are always grim! too much to do before everything kicks right off! a playlist for these troubled times might read...

The World is Flat by Unwound
Mutual Friends by The Arteries
The Only Living Boy In New York by Simon and Garfunkel
77 by Red Animal War
Fused Into You by Pylon
Mommy, Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight? by The Misfits
Change Is All The Rage by Knapsack
Dying On The Vine by John Cale
A Jack of All Trades by Hot Water Music
anything will do to lift the spirits, to burn off some oppression from your back. i don't know what its like in your office, but I have to listen to records and read books and articles that are either a piece of white hot rage at the system we're intwined within, or pieces of literature and such which remind you of the good times- your life at home which seems like it's a million miles from here, shows you've been to, places you've visited and real living that you've lived. to be in that place again would be something else, something far removed.
Let's not confuse the issue, i like my work and i realise i'm fortunate in that. but i also feel like this is not real on several occasions throughout the day; that there is something just waiting for me to find! I think of the people I have met, and where they are in the world now. i think of the things I have seen and imagine going back, and I think of all my friends and family outside of these four walls, and how they are plotting and scheming like me- planning that great escape where they would run, leap and laugh all the way home. free from whatever it is that shackles us! I can't wait to get home to those two cats and pat them on the head. maybe i'll have a calippo too!
