Well Atleast I've Found My Sanity


I've been kind of scanning over a few old posts.

I realized that they jump from idea to idea pretty quickly, a little while back I was working on the album and recording, the next I'm talking about an EP, which might not even be happening anymore.

I have two thoughts about this.
One: It's nice because it seems like to me every day is a new adventure!
Two: I'm a very scattered person, way more than I thought I was.

My first thought was to cut back on posts and explain myself better.

But I say nuts to that, this is a perfect way to get a good view of how my mind works and I realized that's the very point of this blog. So enjoy the ride...One thing I can promise 100% Is i'm going to do everything in my power to have this album ready by December 2009 and hopefully released in the early new year.

Alright, now for the usual update on what I've been up to.

Slowly I've been trying to finish up loose ends of the unfinished songs, It's much harder than you'd think, probably because of who I am. I find while working on a song, in the moment everything seems like a great idea, but as soon as to put borders on it, call it finished and write words to a melody, it feels like I'm putting it in a cage, or taking a picture of a perfect moment that will only live in a memory, or trying to paint a picture of a dream to share your mind with someone special.
So I think i've come to terms with the fact that that's just how songs are, an image. I'm really trying to make that image clearer for myself and anyone who might listen, and it's much harder than I thought....Apparently I hate to be tied down.

Daniel and I have also been trying to find a time to talk on the phone about the project and my vision, how we're going to handle recording and etc (which I'm very excited about, like...really excited) and we've been failing miserably to find a time. He's a very busy guy, and the only times he's been free are when I'm busy. But I believe it will happen when it's meant to, I'll just keep moving til then

The flip side to that, is I'd really like to have something to really work for, because In a way I still feel aimless, no time goal to work to and it's also hard to work without getting his thoughts and ideas on the whole project. But I guess that means i'm still open to doing what ever I feel is best, which is what I want. I really hope he's on board with the whole concept and goal that I have, that's the thing I really want to find out.

Anyways, next time maybe i'll have some real news, or another angle to throw out there and change around again.

It's all part of the journey.
