Ups & Downs



Feeling a bit stressed if I'm honest.

Wasn't going to write about it- there isn't much to tell, and it will probably sound well lame, but then I listened to Otty's new track, Ups and Downs, and thought that it's a cracker (thanks Rob for putting it on).

You should be able to listen to the track here


I looked at a few of the posts around our little community too, and quite a few people it seems are on one of those downs. I know I've got it better than the vast majority of the rest of the world, that is a blessing. But when you feel stressed, you feel stressed. If you're stressed because the new wing on your mansion isn't the right shade of lilac, or if your your homeless and your only sleeping bag has blown away (knew a homeless dude in Birmingham who that happened to) you still make use of the same chemicals. Some stress more, some stress less, but life sometimes seems like one big stress.

So I don't really know what to do. I could jack it all in, live as a hermit. But that wouldn't work. And I probably wouldn't have much access to the internet to check the old blogs either would I?
