What I'm trying to say is my mind races. About everything. It always has...

It's late (in married time, of course. Its only 9:41 pm), Liz has already gone to bed. I just downloaded the leaked version of Band of Horses' new album Infinite Arms. The vocals of their fourth song, Blue Beard, transcended me to somewhere outside of my dimly lit office. Somewhere where my incessant thoughts couldn't bog me down. And it was good. I felt peace. The past few nights I've been reading CS Lewis' A Grief Observed. Each morning Liz would ask me what i thought and I can never come with anything other than "... it was good." Truth is, I wasn't reading to tear it apart. It had that same ability to transcend me to somewhere else. I was able to put myself in Lewis' perspective and feel something different. It was some place where my incessant thoughts couldn't bog me down.
