Reverb 10 Prompt (from Patti Digh): Imagine you will completely lose your memory of 2010 in five minutes. Set an alarm for five minutes and capture the things you most want to remember about 2010.
[6:33am, Note to self]
Five minutes! Shit, am I really gonna do this one, in real time and all, right now? I just woke up! My brain is mush! Everyone will know how slow my mind churns, my lack of typing skills… I need to think about this for a bit first, or else I’ll leave some important stuff out. But then I won’t really be doing the prompt, and this one really has to be done right now, in five actual minutes, or else the whole point of the thought experiment will be missed. I need to finish my coffee! Tic toc tic toc… Oh shit, let me think…
Umm…
Shit, all those songs that I learned!
Fuck.
Ummm…
Okay, Glen Hansard! Listen to every album he recorded with The Swell Season and The Frames, and watch every YouTube video you can find of him. It’ll change your perspective on playing music.
And read your blog and journal to catch up on the rest!
Oh yeah, and you have a new nephew!

Not fair! I am NOT a morning person!
