Lately when I awaken, there’s this dull music playing in my head on a loop (I mean, the music. not my head) that stays with me all day. it’s not a melody I recognize, but I must have heard it from somewhere. but I don’t know where. Or why. I would say it’s kind of like a drone, but much less interesting. But I can say it drones on and on and on. I must rectify this somehow. Or extricate it. Return it to the source, whoever that was.
That was me by the way. My current voice after 4 hours of sleep last night. maybe that’s what happens. the shorter, the sleep, the duller the melody, the hoarser the voice. I’m not proud of this recording, but I feel comfortable enough with you to share it. I can’t say that about everybody. I wouldn’t share this with anyone at work. Or the dog walker. Or my dog. Or most of my friends (which won’t be difficult since most of my friends have forgotten about me). But there’s a certain comfort level between us that can only exist between people who have never met. I appreciate you.

…. but I do know you and I remember you and now I have that melody stuck in my head too….. Dammit.
Oh, I am so sorry Kym. It was far from my intention to plant that ‘melody’ in your consciousness.
It’s sort of funny. But whenever I write on this blog, I imagine you as the sole audience. So the ‘you’ in this post is you. And the ‘us’ is you and I.
But be forewarned, more inexplicable hypnogogic melodies forthcoming.
