Back To Life

Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to the here and now yeah ...

Soul II Soul, 1989

How much do I love this song?

My five day respite at the house on the lake is over.  Treasured family, new friends, never-ending laughs, great food, exciting experiences and memories to last a lifetime. No TV, PC, DVD - just the odd text and BBM to ensure I was actually still on Earth.  

Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to the here and now yeah ...

How much do I hate this song?

Back to my gong-show (of late) office, where inane questions are met with a look that's a cross between "I don't give a shit" and "fuck off".  For a second, in my mind, as that's simply not done.  We put on the game face and smile and help and do.  

Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to the here and now yeah ...

But my mind is wandering. I'm staring off into that lake of tranquility where the only thing on my mind was a neverending glass of Markaritas (not a typo) and how Saturday night's dessert of ice cream cake with a side of ice cream could be improved upon (Impossible.  Obviously).   I love my empty head.

Savour these moments.  Cherish the memories.  Hang on to what's important, always.  As we know what's coming ...

Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to the here and now yeah ...

So, you may have noticed I've been a bit sparse on the posting of late.  Sorry.  Nothing's coming.  Work Brain Full.  Fun Head Empty.  Zero thoughts.  Be back soon ... I hope. xo.
