The loss of the cherry tree combined with reading Wordsworth's Intimations Ode and the wild windy weather has really made me want to go outside and climb trees and muck about in the grass and get close to the earth again before I forget how.
Unfortunately it's hard when every time I go outside I get really, really cold.
Dammit, I'm not supposed to be getting stircrazy yet...I can't have that hit till the middle of Feburary at least! I'll go mad. (Speaking of which, Rabbit Rabbit.) Even so, I really want summer--or at least I want spring. I want the warmth in the air instead of the chill, I want green on the trees, I want blue and not grey. I really will go mad.
Completely unrelatedly, I got into the student-directed one acts, doing a scene from "But For Whom Charlie," which I know utterly nothing about, nor do I know my scene partner, but hey. I'm excited. Our first two assignments are 1) read the play and 2) go out for coffee so we know each other, because our characters are really close. I always thought that was a grand way to start off rehersals.
[And I really want to make a five minute film with this music, but I have nothing more than the opening image: a match or lighter clicking into flame in utter darkness, lighting a cigarette, then three candles, then sniffing out. I have no idea what happens next, but I really like it...]
