Moment of Clarity

(not only a great song by the band Therapy)
BUT
today I had 30 mins of pure joy.
The sun was shining, my car was flying along & I was listening to Skinny Puppy remixes with Chino Morino & for that 30 minutes I was as happy as I could be. No drugs, no friends, no money spent.
Bliss, why cant everything be so simple.

No I was proper happy at the time. Music & my car are two of the best things in my life & when I put them together like that I am safe. I spent shit loads on the stereo in the car so it is like being at a gig but moving...kewl.

Yes Pluck, sometimes I am fine. Is that so wrong to be happy sometimes? I have great times & total shit times like a lot of people with these types of disorder.
Music helps me so much to get out of a rut sometimes. I give thanks to Dead Can Dance & Mortal Coil but mostly to the Pixies!
Long Live 4AD...

I had a moment like that when my sister dragged me out of the house to a Steve Miller Band concert. Pure joy and oblivion. I was transported. Then it was over.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
