Sunday

Music: “Vicious Cycle”/Lynyrd Skynyrd, “7 Deadly Zens”/ Tommy Shaw... and more
Mood: disastrous

Walked Fox, did the washing, had a chat with a couple of friends (I came across while walking Fox), weeded a bit, watered the plants (of my neighbours too), took some photos… It’s been an ordinary Sunday, very quiet because many people are now out of town (it’s holiday time!!).
Nothing particular happened… till my cam broke. Then I just remembered what went wrong/broke recently – so many things. I can’t recall anything that are good/went well. And all those lights, locks, doors, chains, door bell, sewing machine, teeth (!!), clock, stereo-set, camera… I can’t fix them (except for the printer… I fixed it!!).
It’s just too heavy and hard to be Kym. 24/7. Kym. is sweet, kind, joyful, strong, liberal, accommodating, co-operating, calm, timid, understanding, funny, bright, wise, modest, smiling, hardworking, enterprising, tough, hanging in there, lucky, broad-minded, accepting, always there…
I’m so sick and tired being Kym. I’m not made of air. I’m not made of stone. Ha! Then, “Life goes on”, they say. “Oh, ya? Does it?”, I’d say. “Give me, please, Prozac or.. even better “Drion” pills”.

Crystal Ball

I used to like to walk the straight and narrow line
I used to think that everything was fine
Sometimes I’d sit and gaze for days through sleepless dreams
All alone and trapped in time
All alone and trapped in time

I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me
Or am I even in its mind at all
Perhaps I’ll get a chance to look ahead and see
Soon as I find myself a Crystal Ball
Soon as I find myself a Crystal Ball

Tell me, tell me where I’m going
I don’t know where I’ve been
Tell me, tell me won’t you tell me
And then tell me again
My heart is breaking
My body’s aching
And I don’t know where to go
So tell me, tell me
Won’t you tell me
I’ve just got to know

(Crystal Ball)
There are so many things I need to know
(Crystal Ball)
There are so many things I’ve got to know
(Crystal Ball)
Won’t you tell me, please, before I go
Crystal Ball
