February

I have always loved the song February from Dar Williams. After my horrible breakup that produced an entire 2 albums worth of break up songs that could tear your heart out, my good friend Randy came into the bathroom where I was taking a bath when we were on tour and snuck in the guitar, and sang me that song (the perfect song for the last time I would ever see the one that broke my heart) and I just cried and cried because it was just the release I needed. February is that month when winter really sinks in, and we hunker down into ourselves and all the walls are exposed for what they are. Andy is feeling better these days, and we are finally finding some semblance of a groove in our little family. We are gearing up for a big change. I have been dreaming of cutting my hair, and losing those last 20 pounds of Luka weight I am still carrying around. I can taste it, the shifting of our energies. My momentum can't be stopped this time. I don't have to push quite as hard right now, things are finally moving, and I can feel it, just around the corner, spring, oh spring!!!! Spring is coming, I know she is!
