actually, it's getting through the days that's much harder.
somehow, trying to conceptualise the details of this completely over-the-top global symphony is far easier at night. the world opens up somehow and you can drift across space and continents more freely.
ach, jodi, I can hear my scottish friend saying; lighten up!
hmmm. I decided - in relation to this transit lounge radio conversation project - that an even higher level of self-discloure was in order. something about transparency of process and embodied social networking. yes, really. if you're going to be out dancing on the edge of the abyss, it may as well be spectacular. that's the thing with aerial work, everyone is waiting for the performer to fall. therein lies the thrill. we're relieved but maybe a little disappointed when they remain aloft. suspended in flight, not earthbound like the rest of us.
the wonderful sue deg used to tell me during her training in flying trapeze that every day was an excercise in courage. you have to keep being brave and step up on that platform one more time, and let go.
enough quotidian philosophy, it's back to budgets and filling out forms.
