The return of the night owl

My nocturnal habits have returned. So I guess I am back in my natural bio rhythm. The owl has returned and she competes fiercely with early to bed, early to rise.

This also means than any residue from depressive withdrawal has been completely vanquished. No more pining over being isolated and confined on this Island Behind God's back.

I need 8 hours of sleep to be fully functional... unless I have a quick dose of coffee or other uppers in the morning.

I watched Lawrence of Arabia again last night. It's amazing just how much knowledge I have gained since my first viewing... and how that background info puts into perspective this beautifully executed film.

And that is why I will continue to read. I am almost out of books now... so I will take anything I can get. Maybe it is time to visit the public library after all. A friend tells me I will be very disappointed. But still says I should see for myself. I will.

Failing that, I may have to begin buying second hand off Amazon.

I also need to increase my collection of film classics. I find it so funny that now that we dont have TV (cable is still down from the September 6 hurricane) people are exchanging DVDs. When they see or hear or my collection, they grimace and resort to watching nothing at all. If these films inspire me, does that mean that my work will also be so unappreciated? Hmmn... but this is indeed a very small island.

I am happy today. I am happy everyday. My life is filled with meaning day to day. I live in the moment. And you know what, they are stringing along pretty nicely!
