Abi Norman (aka the sunrise)
By the sea-side in Brighton, England
The bull
avoiding working/attempting to establish myself as an artiste/loafing around as much as possible
Never been on an organised tour before (have avoided such things in the past due to strict itineraries and much social contact), but i picked the brochure up in Brighton, liked the alternativeness going on and decided i needed to see some of Mexico before "the return"
Eternally single (groan)
In my fantasies- many, in reality- once
I doubt i will be state-side for awhile yet, but my dreams say Alaska, Alaska, Alaska
Notice" by Heather Lewis. Havn't read it yet, which is why it still reamins my favourite
Tom Waits and Bitch & Animal are currently vying for the crown of the Sony CD Stereo- not sure which is the bigger King of Butch-ville . . .
That would involve darkened rooms, increased heart rates, excitement, tension, big faces and choclate- a trip to the cinema, of course!
And discovering new cultures and landscapes and people. And crazy dancing and gorgeous music, and . . .
So many, so many . . . My first sunrise x 4, the bus (i LOVE the bus), searching for sea shells, experiencing my first steam bath with 3 of the sexiest women around (powerful!), making friends with Ya-yo's son Christian and being shown around his village, feeling like Calamity Jane on horseback
(whip-crack-away), whipping cream with Celine and dancing under the stars to The Hot Club of Cowtown with Jon (the other sunrise)
working hard as an established artiste with no time to rest! (Yeah right!) |

GT virgin.
If scheduling works out for me, I'd like to go on the Death Valley trip in February and the Alaska Expedition in June. Many things have to fall into place, however.
That I read this year? "I Know This Much is True" by Wally Lamb.
Eric Clapton, Unplugged
Day-dreaming.
All the moments when I let my guard down and was simply myself. Seeing sunrises, chopping vegetables, playing ping pong, brushing teeth at U.S. Customs.
In five years I want to be able to say where I will be five years from then. Right now I can't even say where I will be in five months. |

Keb Mo "Slow Down"
Second down, short yardage, a medium distance pass over the middle splitting the zone defense, allowing a good gain into the secondary. Or did you mean pastime? In that case, traveling and being in motion.
Just sitting on the beach feeling a world away from everything.
