woman knocked out [by] cold
today my cold has knocked me out. cold. i missed seeing steph and elyse and nolan today, slept through the whole day. i hear my phone ringing and i can't find it. i'm pretty sure it's in my bed.
last night my parents and daisy brought be food and treats and company. i feel right asleep and went into a time warp which dropped me off this evening.
i know i have things to do, but i can't remember them. i feel like dufferson who is currently enjoying senility.
i moved from my bed to the couch. then i walked my dogs around the block. i am quite sure i took a shower because i smell fresh. i am drinking water with a shot of apple juice to quell the unfortunate tasted in my mouth.
i had all these things i wanted to write. clever insightful things. i forgot them. my nose is running, my throat is rough, my ears are clogged. what?
for all the people i didn't get back to: what i have to offer in terms of communication for today is this picture.
(i know one doesn't wear goggles to box).

You've got me on my knees.
My iPod is a wild mix of music, most of it put there by friends. So it was interesting to hear the original Layla by Derek and the Dominos followed immediately by Layla unplugged also by Eric Clapton.
Then hearing Layla unplugged directly afterward was remarkable. It sounded like the song was out of gas. Sounds like he could take her or leave her, whichever. And when Layla has Unplugged Eric on his knees it sounds like his collapse was too tired to stand up because playing that riff so slowly was exhausting. And he just wants to nap.
The original is blood red visceral and the guitar riff sounds like it came from his guts, ripped through his heart and Layla is the electricity that runs through his veins. When Layla has him on his knees I picture him desperately in love, enchanted, electric and collapsing to his knees in humility for the power her love. He's addicted to Layla, she has affected him so much. It's exhilarating.

Layla, I'm begging, darling please.
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind.
I tried to give you consolation
When your old man had let you down.
Like a fool, I fell in love with you,
Turned my whole world upside down.
Chorus
Let's make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane.
Please don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in vain.
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind.
I tried to give you consolation
When your old man had let you down.
Like a fool, I fell in love with you,
Turned my whole world upside down.

Before I finally go insane.
Please don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in vain.
