'Images & Words'

Greetings World's !!

How is your bit of the Universe treating this fine, cold day ? It's a bit breezy, here in our part of England... tho' - having said that - I've not been out of the house, so far today !! It's really toasty, here in the homestead.... sooooo, I'm staying where the warmth is !!

Anyways - I'm home alone, at the moment.... B has just left, to do a bit of shopping + go to a meeting. I think her plan, from what I can remember, was to do the shopping first, then on to the meeting. That means she can come straight home, afterwards.... makes sense really - tho' I'm not really sure what time she will be back, nevermind....

As for the rest of the family - (as both of our "kids" have left home) - our family of 4 cats... well - the last I saw of them, they were all happily asleep, on various bits of furniture, around & about the place !! I can't blame them really... why go out in the cold, when there is a nice warm house to stay in ?! Oh well..

I've had a quiet day...

I was due to go to a meeting, at 12.30 - but, I've had a nasty bit of a night, sleeping, waking, sleeping... you get the picture ? Anyhoo - after all of that, I decided to call off the meeting.... there was no point in going, especially feeling like crap !!

The lady, that I was going to see, was really nice about it... knowing a bit of my medical history help, I guess !! I try & go to all of the meetings, if I can, but, sometimes things don't work out the way I want them to !! As it is - I will see her on Friday week... December 10th... where is the month going ?! I'm already making plans for next week & it's only Tuesday, this week !! Hopefully, I will feel a little better, for that "get together" !!

I was quite happy, earlier, in bed - trying to catch up on some sleep... but, the 'phone rang a few times, sooooo - I thought I best get my butt, out of bed & down to answer the bloody thing. But - you all know how it goes - you run, to catch the call, before it rings off - only to miss the call, by a matter of seconds !!

I did the dial back - and it was the lady, from this morning, trying to get hold of me..... so, I'm glad I made the effort & got out of bed - tho'... it was kind of nice, just catching up on my sleep !! Maybe next time - I'll remember to take the 'phone upstairs with me !!

As for the music of the moment - I'm listening to a bit of Dream Theater.... one of about 70 tracks, that I put on my last "mix" Cd's. If you have no clue, what I'm writing about - read yesterdays post !!

It's all a bit weird really.... I'm listening to one track, on my iPod thingy... and, on the TV, over to my left, there is a Dream Theater DVD concert playing. It's kind of weird, mainly as what I'm watching, doesn't match with what I'm listening to !! All very strange...

The DVD tracks are:

1) Under A Glass Moon
2) Wait For Sleep
3) Surrounded
4) YTSE Jam
5) To Live Forever
6) A Fortune In Lies
7) Take The Time
8) Pull Me Under

The DVD is called 'Images & Words - Live In Tokyo'... or something like that !! I'm not really sure that I've ever played it before !! I don't really remember !! Oh well... I'll give it a listen, at some point.... maybe put the soundtrack, onto a Cd... not today tho'... things to do & stuff !!

"Things to do" ? Well - not really... I just have to get myself together, ready for my visit to the hospital, in Exeter, tomorrow.. I've not got that much to sort out - I just don't want to leave it all until tomorrow. As it is - we'll be leaving home early enough - with out having to do this, that & the other, before we go !!

So - with all of that in mind, I will sign off, for today...

As always, I thank you for taking the time, to log in & read my words... until next time.....

Bye Bye
