Thursday, June 11, 2009 Rain Washing Us Clean  "If elections made anything happen, they would be forbidden." -Kurt Tucholsky -------- Today is my eighth day in Berlin and I have two more after today before I fly to Paris for a quick night there before, on Sunday, heading home. It is raining but the sun is shining and nothing will deter me from feeling that everything is possible (because it always is). I feel like I am metaphysically on the cusp of something big and new; or, perhaps I am riding a wave to my next destination--insert whatever metaphor might be appropriate here. Everything around me is sparks and crackles***. Now I am going swimming. LISTEN: Lately I am LOVING Daniel Johnston to pieces, particularly 1990 and Artistic Vice. -- Daniel Johnston - "My Life is Starting Over Again", from Artistic Vice -- Daniel Johnston - "Tell Me Now", from Artistic Vice -- Beck - "True Love Will Find You In The End," Daniel Johnston cover from The Late Great Daniel Johnston -- And go here for five versions of Daniel Johnston's amazing "Somethings Last A Long Time" (from a Hyperliving post last year)  NOTES: *** - One of the side effects that always happens while I vacation is that I almost immediately lose interest in tracking the sports news that I obsessively follow everyday in the States. As much as I love following sports, I think that doing so is also a bit of a lifesuck, and only when I am REALLY gone do I have the headspace to step back and think, Wow, i feel liberated. Dirk, I am truly sorry--especially being here in your homeland!!!--but I guess THIS is what it takes for me to unclench the iron vise grip that basketball has on my mind in spring.
