Decided that over-dosing on Robert Palmer is NOT conducive to equanimity, and felt compelled to resort to Cat Stevens - who, although in his younger days exemplified the seeming paradox that bearded men can be sexy (see cover photo for 'Teaser and the Firecat', which adorned my wall for many a year), is nevertheless soothingly spiritual ('Kathmandu' being particulalry effective in calming the beast). That, followed by several iterations of 'Dust in the wind' by Kansas put me in a better frame of mind for cocoa and a good book yesterday evening.
Actually, having tracked down the aforementioned photo, maybe it's just that my taste has changed in 30-odd years...

Right, off to do my creative writing exercise and make some phone calls.

It's the eyes that do it for me, all the time

Are the phone calls part of the creative writing exercise - sounds very clever stuff!
 | husbandorcat [Member] 2006-01-29 @ 19:49 |
No, no quite disconnected - though I suppose they are both concerned with communciation...
Actually, the phone calls are to do with the proof-reading I've been doing, so the connection is closer than you might think.
eyes, first, then sense of humour. Though, in Jim morrison's case, body comes into it somewhere, I have to admit...
(stop it, the man's been dead for 35 years! don't even think about it. He would be 62 by now!)

On second thought, my taste hasn't changed that much (re Cat Stevens)
Maybe that's just the G&T and Cotes du Rhone talking...
