which reminded me

of
this

i heard rock kills kid's cover of "i turn my camera on" in dance class....i thought i had stumbled upon something very cool or relatively unknown....

well, it's on the latest OC soundtrack, so face on me!

(i would like to own this album....it looks like there's good stuff on it. if cormac** actually read my blog maybe he would copy it for me)

** you KNOW cormac has this album

just got home from the silent retreat

it was horrible.
i mean, it was amazing and tranformative, but a million times harder than i thought being alone with one's self would be. i had a panic attack my first night. we had so much *time*. i hated being with myself like that.
no distractions.
out of 16 people, turns out i was the emotional one. the one that broke down twice. the one that choked and coughed in front of everyone from crying.
i am very sensitive today.

what i will try to do is be present and with myself more on a daily basis. make space for all the uncomfortable feelings (hard!) and turn to look at my monsters, and ask them why they're chasing me.

april 8. 9pm. come over.

happy st. pats!!!

i signed up for dina amsterdam's silent retreat in the santa cruz mountains march 22-25.

so far, i've tried: therapy, prescription drugs, yoga, cutting way down on the booze, accupuncture....let's see what silence does.
