I'm chilled. Cold rain all today, that turned into snow and I haven't the courage to check what it's doing now, although we're heading out to the theatre in a few minutes. I've been writing Easter letters today, then trying to come up with a quick post.
All I can think of is a song I first heard back in the days when MuchMusic (Canada's then-superior version of MTV) had "Peace and Love" videos all day on Christmas. It's on my iPod now and is one I never fast-forward through when it comes up on shuffle. There's a clearer version of this at YouTube, but there's a vastly irritating mini-commercial at the beginning, so I'm going with this one (and I'm not sure about the lyrics):
Rickie Lee Jones Satellite by Celtiemama
Satellites - Ricki Lee Jones
Well, we were born forever
We are twinned in a fugitive mind
Friends should stay together and
Light the world with the fugitive guide
So you keep talking in many languages
Telling us the way you feel
Got up fighting in the road you're on
Get up, you're a walking satellite
I just saw you walking
Ice was reading fortunes in the moonlight
Things he could not tell you
You'll never read more than you will tonight
So you keep talking in many languages
Telling us the way you feel
Got up fighting in the road you're on
Get up, you're a walking satellite
Ah, Satellite!
We were born forever
Tunneled into the fugitive night
Friends must stay together
Code the world with the fugitive light
Oh, I just saw you walking
Ice was reading fortunes by the moonlight
Casting runes on the rooftops and alleyways (baby)
You'll never read more than you will tonight
So you keep talking in many languages
Telling us the way you feel
Don't stop, fighting in the road you're on
Don't quit, you're a walking satellite
Ah! Satellites!
