What a beautiful morning. Andnowmiguel, his brother Teggart and I are making eggs benedict and drinking Mimosa's.. I love lazy morning's.
And....I LOVE BEIRUT!!!! You have to go listen to his music, it is so awesome. Definately my favorite new music....one young guy, plays trumpet, ukelele, piano, organs, vocals, percussion, accordion and mandolin. Gorgeous gypsy sounding music, all soulful and beautiful like a heartfelt celebration of life.
Listen to Beirut Postcards from Italy is one of my favorite songs for sure.
Man, last night I stayed up til about 2am and then I woke up at 9am which is much less sleep than I normally need. Maybe I am finally going back to my old sleep habits, that would be really nice. It seems like I have required so much sleep in the recent past. I used to consider myself a night person but lately it seems like I'm neither night or morning but more like mid-day. That's no good. Though I love to sleep, I hate feeling like I'm wasting my time away in dreamland all the time.
What do you think about dreams? I believe they are just as much of an experience as waking life and should be credited for giving real experiences. Though you are sleeping you are having an experience that has provoked thought and real emotion. They are just alternate realities.
So, I am going to try to go vegetarian again. I love meat but I hate the idea of eating carcass. When you say it like it is, it is so bad....I love animals also. I know everyone does and there are so many arguments for and against. My bottom line is that eating meat is eating something that is dead and that is pretty gross if you think about it, which you should. Went to Trader Joe's this morning and got a lot of meatless meat and some girl scout cookies. We are on Box 9 or so.
If you haven't seen The Protector yet, you must! Watch the extended version because it has a lot of beautiful Thai footage depicting the love and companionship between Thai elephants and their human families. Then, later in the movie Tony Jaa is incredible. He can run 3 steps up a wall and jump from the ground, kick out a street light and land on his feet. Super good movie. I couldn't actually watch the end because of the elephant factor but it is still worth watching.
Also, If you haven't yet read my last journal entry, it has a huge photo update from my trip to San Francisco so check it out if you haven't seen it yet.
xo and good vibrations,

Waking Life
Really explores the dreams/reality question as well as any film I have seen.
Good luck going veggie...I did it for 10 years but am now back on the ol meat thing...time spent in Africa makes u realise food is food...no freedom to choose there.
