Concept albums

Top five concept albums that I create in the next twenty years.

1) A gangster rap album from the perspective of a persecuted Mormon travelling west. (Album title: "Mo' Ghetto")

2) A chin stroking album of field recordings from the wild Savannah of computer programmers talking to each other. (This one has to be under my musical alias "The Swami of Bits")

3) A country western album told from the view of a rogue cop in Detroit (Album title: "Bringin' Home The Red, White and Blue Bacon")

4) A musique concrete album of different animals giving birth. (Album title: "Physiological Expulsion")

5) A death metal record with the backup, harmony vocals done by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. (Musical alias: "Fall From Grace").

Daydreaming

Today, I got a massage while down in Cedar City visiting Capree's parents. About 30 minutes in, I was finally in a place where I felt fully relaxed. Something odd happened where I was daydreaming so intensely that it seemed real and true.

I dreamed that I had a brain tumor and that I was dying soon. I went to everyone I knew and said my piece to each person that needed to be said. What was said isn't clear, but it happened in a flash. My friends, my family, my wife, and all those I've met along the way.

When I felt I was at a place of piece and complete clarity, I snapped out of it. Yet, I came back completely free from worry or stress.

That hasn't happened in a while.
