And a lot of rain again. Today I was finishing off a recording mostly. It was too wet to to go anywhere though so here I stayed all day. And it has set a few aches and pains off. That always seem to set pains off when its damp.<br>Time takes its toll I guess. I am also a little bored to be honest. I was recording most of yesterday and my brain seems a bit fried. I just got an idea for a song with an interesting lyric. Dare I record it and sing it. Time will tell. But I have the idea now in my head. maybe I should. I do feel very weird these days and a mass of contradictory urges and desires.  Can I get a pill for that, I wonder? Maybe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u201cNever follow anyone else\u2019s path. Unless you\u2019re in the woods and you\u2019re lost and you see a path.
