Catch me in the snow

So I took off this morning, for a work trip to Wallingford, CT.

Where is that, you ask? Well I'll ask you the same damn thing.
Small town full of chain restaurants and no nightlife.

But to be honest, after this past week with those GLORIOUS #hashtags I'm ok with being bored out of my goddamn mind for a week.
[btw you hashtagers, my facebook has been going offffff with all those lovely photos indicating just how GREAT of a time I have with you lovely people <3]


Luckily, I have a book on hand that I've been wanting to get through but have been distracted.


I've gone through short obsessions with Mr Eric Clapton.
All non life threatening,btw.
But most of the time engulfed in a life that was once his through words on a page.

The first time I had ever heard of him was because of my Dad. Whom is a great singer and decent guitar player, in the years that he has raised 5 children.

I just remember being little and him singing "Wonderful Tonight" and playing it on his guitar as I fell alseep. I have a very special bond with my Dad and pretty much think he's the greatest, albeit oblivious sometimes, man in my life.

For that reason I think I grabbed onto Clapton after going through Cream, Yardbirds, Derek and the Dominos, and realizing that yes, CLAPTON IS GOD


proof


Then I read a book basically about Derek and the Dominios and the basis of Layla and other assorted love songs.

Then one of my favorite people EVER gives me his Slow Hands vinyl for my birthday.
It's still in the frame!!! thanks squirrels. <3


And I don't know if it's the immense talent he possessed, his wild side to being free, his shamed romanticism, or the beard and bell bottom jeans.....
WHO KNOWS WHY THE SUN SHINES???

It just does.
There's just something about this man that is completely satiable in many ways.

So its looking like another obsession stint is coming on.
