…have to admit they’re getting better and better: more time, more adventures, more recording, more reading; Lucian talking-without-talking, walking-without-walking, all those secret hybridities that come from a mind stretched between a baby and a child. Towards the end of today’s recording session, hit with the tired feeling, sort of like I am out of ideas. I mean, one can only use a distorted tuba so much. In any case, love and thanks to Iryshka for arranging a work session today.
update: actually, got to hit the recording room again, since Yana stayed ’til 3pm; managed to give insectile birth to one more musical idea, one that hopefully emerges from its larval stage with wings.

Sitting in bed, in the silver-blue glow of my laptop, watching my son sleep, soothing him first with sound when he wakes. Interestingly, more than half the time he wakes with a violent start, and starts crying immediately – before even opening his eyes. So I have to ask – is he having nightmares? Or is he simply hypersensitive to his situation- in the crib, not in the bed, and alone, no bodies next to him? I can’t decide. I know that he’s upset before he’s fully conscious. It makes me sad to think that a child of a mere 8 months could have anything in his head other than warm, fuzzy, liquid, fleshy happiness.
