Probably the hardest thing I do all day is get out of bed. The task is nigh impossible to achieve at times yet, somehow, I manage to drag my unwilling body to a vertical position and get myself in gear for the day. My best sleep is in the mornings, so I am perpetually denying myself the right to really sleep. Perhaps I should be working a 2nd or 3rd shift job when the time comes for me to work again.

My latent otherworldliness is felt strongly today. I feel like I don't belong here, doing what I'm doing. The hint of needing to be elsewhere and having more important tasks which I've yet to accomplish is evident in the gleam in my eye. I'm out of sorts and my sense of separateness is strong. It's actually been a very long time since I've felt this so strongly. I really try to keep the feeling at bay, to just live normally and be as mundane as possible. But the Fae are calling me. The Upir are whispering. They make it clear that, no matter what I do or say, I am not part of this world set before me. And I am not happy because of it.

But happiness is perspective. Today, I have the wrong perspective and the only person who can correct this is me. I just need to try harder....to at least achieve contentment or the equivalent thereof.

Late last night, a mother cat brought her three kittens to us. They all appear to be very healthy, thank the Mighties! Two of the kittens are ginger and white, the other is a tortoiseshell, mostly black, with a larg tongue of orange flame trailing up the middle of her face and colouring one ear. Because of the black, the orange is accented even more. It looks like her little face is on fire. I've appropriately named her Flame and she's probably the most beautiful cat on the hill, and definitely the most unusual looking.

It's time for me to address the work on my desk. I have my first Zomba/Jive service to process. It's for Marvin Sapp. I also have RCA services for Babyface and Faithless. They're due to ship on 7/18, but I need the time to get everything set up so the process will run smoothly. Today, Keith Anderson is shipping out for RLG. These are quite possibly some of the last services with which I must contend. 'Tis the beginning of the end.

*smiles* Flame sounds adorable indeed. Very lovely.

*hugs* And I hope that your day goes okay, and you can find the perspective and the peace you need.

(Gospel music? We tend to forget what Zomba/Jive do. *absent mindedly pokes things curiously*)

Yeah, Jive/Zomba has the subsidiary label Verity on which they carry all their Gospel music. I could do for some John P. Kee right now.

There's a small hole in our collection here, but I'm thinking we're going to have to find him and give him a listen, one of these days. Thank you.

Faithless are quite nonoffensive, at least. :)

You know I don't really do kitty-things (I like cats, but have a longstanding campaign against cutesiness and animal-centred bathos)-- but am looking forward to photos of Flame!
