as i was sanding floors this week, i was astounded at the amount of random songs that floated around in my mind. refusing to go away. lingering even subconsciously under my brain. "heal the world" was the worst one. songs i haven't thought of in years.

then i thought...what if i had not bombarded my brain with media and noise for the past 20something years? what if i had lived in solitude all my life. hearing only the sound of my own voice and actions and nature around me. i know, it's a weird thought. sanding floors affords you those. anyway, would things like the sound of a certain bird's voice, or the way wind sounded in trees, or a the water of a certain rushing river be the sounds floating around trapped in my head?

you know those detox drinks or programs or whatever that one uses to rid the body of drugs or impurities? i wish i could do that for all the mindless blah blah blah media stuck in my gray matter.

also, i want to see the new charlie kaufman movie with jim carrey. isn't that ridiculously ironic?
