I know, I don't usually do this, but I want to see it so here are the lyrics to City and Colour's "Sleeping Sickness". Gordon Downie sings in the middle...
I awoke
Only to find my lungs empty
And through the night
So it seems I'm not breathing
And now my dreams are nothing like they were meant to be
And I'm breaking down, I think I'm breaking down
And I'm afraid
To sleep because of what haunts me
Such as living with the uncertainty
That I'll never find the words to say
Which would completely explain
Just how I'm breaking down
[Chorus]
Someone come and, someone come and save my life
Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead
But now it's like the night is taking sides
With all the worries that occupy the back of my mind
Could it be this misery will suffice?
[Gordon Downie]
I've become
A simple souvenir of someone's kill
Like the sea
I'm constantly changing from calm to ill
Madness fills my heart and soul as if the great divide could swallow me whole
oh, how I'm breaking down
[Chorus]
Lots of weird things are happening now, aren't they? Frogs are not yet falling from the sky, I grant you that. But give them time, the frogs, give them time. --William Leith

Things that are conspiring to make it hard for me to post here:
Kirsten has gone off to Quebec with my laptop.
Our internet has major issues, and some days I can't get any connection.
On the days I can get a connection it is sporadic and if I compose a post it gets lost when I try to put it up.
The sun is shining and we've been spending lots of time at the cabin.
