Train Dreams/The Fall

[changeling67]

So many train dreams these days, not surprising since I spend a good chunk of my life on them. If this is about motivation (please see Jung for details), then I am always between stops rather than actually arriving anywhere.  My fellow classmates finished their degree day before yesterday and, even if I feel a little crestfallen that I wasn't with them, I DO think I would have gone three shades of loopy if I hadn't gone part time.

Have taken to reading Ransom Rigg's Miss Peregrine's Home For Perculiar Children enroute and listening to Numan/Fenton collaboration From Inside (Original Sound track from film by John Burgin - From Inside).  I've been having a bit of a Gary Numan renaissance recently, as so has he.  Prone to depression and occasionally bouncing off of the walls, Numan has bouts of excellence, punctuated by conflicted feelings, it is the combo of Fenton and Numan's wife Gemma that keeps him going, no matter however much he complains about them.

(Fenton: Mate, you gotta get back on track and do what you do really well.

Numan (staring out of a window): ......I want a kitten....)

Anyway, have downloaded stacks more of his stuff and really liked The Fall.
