Some weekends I get a lot of music listening done, and I'm real happy and proud of my efforts. Other weekends I can't even get started because I'm spellbound by sheer silence for hours and hours. This is one of those weekends. I can hear cars in the distance, but that's about all. Although spookily I did hear something outside awhile ago that sounded like a man talking through a loudspeaker. It was kindof spooky. I heard something earlier this evening outside that was kindof like that, just some guy talking somewhere rather loudly, but I didn't know what he was saying...I figured maybe it was a loud TV or something from another apartment, but now I wonder.
Anyway there is a song by Heart that goes "the sweetest song is silence/that I've ever heard".
