Dream Angels again

Song Lyric! From a dream

I met you in the street by chance, I nearly walked in too a lamppost I just been playing the Piano, but I didn’t get the gig. The others got the Taxi, they didn’t really want to wait.
they said ‘who’s that’ I said your name, was Cathy. Your hair was still so red.

In my dream you held me so tight we didn’t want to let each other go. You said I moved to Chicargo, i said;

“When I get successfull I will go there too” and you said “yes”

It was so real but then i woke up, I had just been dreaming Angels again…

Chorus

The pink Hippo was sitting at the bar stool he said let me give you some advice, if you have a chance of living your dreams don’t ever think twice

Twas Christmas

Nothing was stirring not even a mouse.  It’s very quite indeed here. I have just been watching Blade Runner on the BBC Iplayer but the film is beginning to disturb me so I stopped watching it. Its in silent moments that you know your really not playing with a full deck. You see who’s on their own as they tend to be logged into facebook trying to find something to say apart from I’m here. I have  been writing some code and starting to play with the face book API to see what glorious opportunity it provides for self-promotion. I am sure it will come in useful for something along the way.
Also having my CV tuned, not that I expect it to do any good as I think even if I did land a job I am pretty close to barking mad most of the time now. I have a festive knees up of a gig tomorrow at the Farmers Boy in St Albans, which will provide some distraction for a while. Everything about St Albans makes me think of the lord of the rings: on the road there one passes an Inn called the Green Dragon though its not at Byewater its actually by the M25 and when you get there everyone is drinking real ale they all jolly and a lot of them are quite short in stature. I haven’t checked for hairy feet yet though! It may well be time for bed now, sort of.  So goodnight from me and the Pink Hippo, it keeps winking at me,  I am not sure why…
