Stuck in the house today and things are flowing like crazy, maybe it's the snow. Who said it was only good for forts and angels. I always claimed to hate it but found my true appreciation for it last night on the phone with my aunt. That's when I decided to stay hibernating this weekend instead of going to the family Christmas Party. I know I know, I do have an obligation to be there, but this weekend it's about me, my son, my dog, my music, my blog. That's it that's all, I can't even justify going to Tdot, though I love it.
Dragging my son and I through the snow to the Greyhound station, arranging for someone to take care of the dog, dealing with snow and slush and horrible road conditions, then traffic in Toronto too-not to mention spending over a bill just to get there and back, a couple weeks before Christmas when I'm going in for Christmas anyways, is just ridiculous. See in London today we got ourselves a municipal emergency. Don't go anywhere unless it's not totally necessary. I guess going to work and making money would be a necessity, but I can't do that if the buses aren't running. And well, they ain't runnin.
(So I pop in and out of slang, so what!lol. I can be a proper lady and a B**** with attitude, it depends on what hat I need to wear to get me through the day)
I can say wholeheartedly with confidence that this is going to be a productive winter creatively. I 've got tons of inspiration right now and I will stop at nothing to let it all out. My one committment to myself this weekend is to hook up keyboard and mic to the computer and away I will go through the night.
See as time passes, and I age mentally, I appreciate staying home-and of course this winter forces me to do that. But then what do you do when you're bored. Well I'm not a person who can justify staying bored as I have so many things to occupy my time. Alot of those things that occupy my time that I hate doing, but of course I do them anyways. Kinda like work: I hate it, but I like eating more than I hate work. So the answer is simple. The answers that are not simple are the emotional ones, the ones that have you asking yourself questions so much you have your brain running in circles. The ones that pose something to you ethically, something had not yet ironed out as good or bad. Those two categories are so confining that they are almost not relevent depending on the day. What could be good tonight could be baad tomorrow. It all depends.
So what's good today is that I got my hands on a new Nas track! What a beat. I'm also diggin on some RnB stuff, but really it's Hip Hop that gives me stamina. I won't get into why for now, that would be a whole other post. In fact I could dedicate a couple different blogs to the whole culture and hows it affected me musically.
But really, I have life to get back to hibernating in all it's glory.
There will be more later no doubt...
