Spirit Aid

Am I perhaps obsessed with someone who mirrors my forlorn hopes and deepest fears in song? I went to see James Grant play on Thursday at the Spirit Aid charity gig. So that makes January and February, he's playing again in March and June - so far.

And The Bluebells were there too. First song, I'm Falling, was more than I could have possibly hoped for - my favourite!

Justin Currie was the top act for the ladies, more of a charmer in his bittersweet mode than James. Be My Downfall has been responsible for many seductions. Am I the only one who wants to be the one girl you will never forget? And I always imagine the bus is pulling out of Killermont Street but why? I never went to uni in Glasgow.

Friday went better than expected but it was a tiring evening so despite still wishing to go out afterwards for drinks and dancing, going home was by far the better idea - to rest and sleep.

Saturday was a hive of activity but, to the untrained eye (or any visitors), it looks like nothing has been done but it was washing and drying all day. The day ended with breaking my own anti-gremlin rule - no fb interaction after midnight. On the good news front, I found out that Electric Man unveils the first ever clip to the public at the GFT on Friday. On the bad/good front, I can't make it.

It has all came a bit early for me, I was preparing for March so I was thrown a bit off kilter. So any hope of plans moved from last Friday to this are on hold but I must get another date for the eighties disco night sorted out soon - dance card quickly filling up again.

Some people look the part on paper but, in reality, there is something not quite right. On the other hand, it is rarer to find the 'still waters run deep' type, who can throw astounding curve balls casually into the mix and you find yourself being caught out - like when trying to cloak yourself in mystery using obscure references, only to find they know about it and more. By this, I don't mean trying to get rid of unwanted attention and only finding yourself in a worse situation and having to get rescued (Edin Cowgate). Something else. Perhaps a Dvrnesque development? I've missed this type of connection but he proved the foundations are still there and that makes me happy. Looking forward to seeing him again and meeting his lady in a couple of weeks. Friends again.
