Then there's the ongoing, and somewhat enlivened, battle between the romantic and the cynic, the optimist and the pessimist. And the wonderful rediscovery of music that seems to have been made for weeks like this. (Great Lake Swimmers has to be one of the best ever band names too, and with great lyrics as well, even ones that fit this week's optimistic pessimism - sleeping is the only way sometimes / to live in a perfect world - you can't go wrong.)
One of those reinvigorated relationships has been with my old friend Jodi. We haven't spent a great deal of time together over the past couple of years, but she's been in Wellington this week working on her latest show, and we've been able to hang out and spend valuable time together. And it has been wonderful.
I, well the cynic in me anyway, wanted to move on from the ghastly romanticism of the last few posts, but it seems I'm stuck in this pleasant headspace, surrounded by love. Long may it continue!!
