I have been awake since 5 am because a bird has been sitting on the telephone wire outside my bedroom window and twittering away. Probably writing wikileaks and all sorts because this is the age of wittering and twittering. But I awake to the good news that I think I have finally finished the Monsters book. 58,000 words added to the 75,000 words on Bogeyman = a lot of twittering. Though I confess I wrote some of the words twice, does that count? Now I feel as though I could sleep for a month, if I could get my head to calm down that is. I am sooo tired... though so glad the summer is upon us and I can do other things. Today I found an old book of my songs in the attic, goodness, surely there was more to write about than cars and girls. But doing my Jimmy Dean pose above suggests, perhaps not. It was the bird on the wire that woke me, so it seems appropriate to post it here before the arthritic fingers finally give out. THis has a stonking saxaphone solo - I have tried in my way to be free, but I have to get one of those hats first.
