I saw David Arnold, an old classmate of my brother's. He was always a funny guy who did funny things like wear a clock around his neck. Now he has a band and is working at Trader Joe's to supplement his income. He actually has two bands and one, called Archer, is touring in Europe! The other one called Octoclops is his own sort of expirimental band.
Seeing him meet this sort of success only makes me wish that I had had some faith in myself or in the music business, I always dreamed of doing that. But here I am taking the road more travelled and bored and not doing what makes my heart sing...although I haven't even entered the work force yet. Some people just don't have the personality though to go through with things like that, and I guess I'm just not one of them. I have always had artistic ability, and a inside I used to have a passionate bliss but that fire has cooled, my head riegns now with cool logic and practicality. I got together with John in the beginning because we shared this desire but we were distracted by eachother... We never did jam like we said we would. I guess I'm just not as artistic as I thought or creative. I don't really have that good of a creative imagination, I just have the clear voice with a good pitch or I have the slight artistic talent and skill. It's going away...my David doesn't stoke the fire. He has calmed it even further. I feel like the only thing I want to do with him is start a family. And i think it would be glorious. He would be a good dad I think. He loves kids, well he likes his little brother....he's pretty self absorbed that way. It's his brother so he likes him. I love all the kids in the villiage, as a quote I saw somewhere.
