I feel like I'm still in Vancouver. I woke up to find myself alone in a townhouse somewhere in Toronto, staring numbly at the pouring rain outside. Of course, it isn't just the rain that makes it seem like I'm still out west; I suspect that I left part of my spirit behind, too.

I'm still out of sorts. I don't feel like myself; it's as though I can see myself somewhere far away behind a diffused lens, and I don't really know how to get past that and slip back into my own skin. It's like my spirit has gone off for a walk and I'm left having to fend for myself without it. So please, if you catch a glimpse of it turning the corner - run to catch it! If you sense it like an autumn chill - quick, close the door! I would be so grateful if you could help in reuniting me with it...

it's old and cold and settled in its ways here...

oh but California...

I've lived in Eastern Canada, I've lived in the Far East, now I live life in Eastern England. But all the songs say GO WEST...

if i go west and you go west, then we'll never meet again!

or, if i go west and you go west at different speeds, would we eventually meet?

west or east, north or south?

i miss you either way...

Dan, this is for you:

I can't stop listening to the sound
Of two soft voices mended in perfection
From the reels of this record that I found
Everyday there's someone in the mirror
Asking me what are you doing here
Finding all my previous motives
Growing increasingly unclear

I've travelled far and I've burned all the bridges
I believed as soon as I hit land
All the other options held before me
Would wither in the light of my plan

But there's only one thing on my mind
Searching boxes underneath the counter
On a chance that on a tape I'd find
A song for
Someone who needs somewhere
To long for

Homesick
Cause I no longer know
What home is

Thanks love...

It's been tough days. I was looking at houses for sale in Winnipeg today and saw one which was described as "cute dolls house". Maybe I should just go back there, buy that house and a puppy and paint the kitchen sunshine yellow.

Why is everything always so far away, no matter where you are?

If you go West and I go East we should eventually collide. Please stay in the northern hemisphere and near the 49th paralele.

i'm right where you left me, dear.
