[I/OOC] Incidental Bits

[Dartz]

I drove 4 hours to Cork to pick up a guitar. 3 hours North to Galway to find an am,plifier. 2 Hours East Back to Dublin, then another 2 hours North to Belfast.

Set up. Sound Check. Rehearsed. Played a 2 hour show. Enjoyed the main event. Packed our shit

Then drove 2 hours back to Dublin at 4am. Awake, alert and focused the entire time on the pure mechanics of the task at hand.

And realised in a real and existential manner, that I really wasn't human. I couldn't stop laughing - for nearly an hour until I finally convinced myself to sleep. Even if only for the comfort of waking up in the morning.

I felt liberated from the weight of something, even if I couldn't place my finger on what. I woke up in the morning, ready to do it again, if I had to. Motivated. Alive even.

He who makes a beast of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man. I think that might be it.
