No Muse Today

Ever get a new deodorant, and get a different smell, a different odor as it were? Is that a rhetorical question?

The purpose of my rhetorical pregunta is that I did, as you witty person may have guessed. I have a strong association with smell for some reason, I'm sure everyone does, but I have a tendency to be able to pick out people, food, drinks, activities based on odor, or my memory of that odor. I smell like a stranger. It is most disconcerting to not smell like yourself. What is even worse, I remember wearing this scent maybe two years ago during the summer, thus it is tainted with my summer job memories, which were not the most pleasant, but interesting/ good learning nonetheless. Nothing is worse than smelling like a stranger and recalling old memories that aren't the most pleasant...so I have been in between times it seems. Good deal of philosophy into this one could be read...It is a moment of existentialism as far as me dissociating from my own being, almost dualism with that respect as well, mind body separation and then of course living in time out of joint. So this is a large moment in history. Or it's not. I do not know, I'm a little lost, not really but for our sake and by our I don't know, yes we will go with yes, what, I don't know. It's the music man, makey makey think think, you me dancing thanks mr glasshouse, those crazy peasants can jam.

Also Leonard Bernstein is the man. Brilliant composer and conductor and he also made Jose Carreras almost cry. It was a good almost though, I mean he knows his stuff so you need to go to rehearsal prepared (and knowing how to count,sense of rhythm and read music), and if you don't he doesn't care who you are, ole LB will let you know that's not the sound he expects nor accepts.

That was free association writing, somewhat, mixed with exciting allusions. I love when the voiceover at the end explains the consequences of a deep movie for those who couldn't already figure out the implications of the words and actions of those on the stage/ film/ screen.
