I miss the boys

Posted on July 14, 2012 By admin

I just finished watching a documentary on the making of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon, and I have a massive pang of longing for the many, many, many nights I spent with the boys, listening to that album, completely high as a kite, and blissfully happy being carried by the music.

That was 15 years ago now. Things, it seems, were a whole lot simpler. No mortgage, no kid, surrounded by friends and with my whole life ahead of me.

Now don’t get be wrong, I’m not saying my life now isn’t as good, in different ways, but sometimes it feels a hell of a lot more complicated.

Quote of the day

Sam Vimes could parallel process. Most husbands can. They learn to follow their own line of thought while at the same time listening to what their wives say. And the listening is important, because at any time they could be challenged and must be ready to quote the last sentence in full. A vital additional skill is being able to scan the dialogue for telltale phrases such as "and they can deliver it tomorrow" or "so I've invited them for dinner?" or "they can do it in blue, really quite cheaply."
--(Terry Pratchett, The Fifth Elephant)
