The boys, I still love them.
My mind has been consumed with the news that we're adding a new family member so I have not been as Beatle-centered as I usually am. These phases are normal for me. Things will even out after a while and I will have many more thoughts to blog about.
In the meantime I am trying to think up Beatle-related baby names!
I had a dream two nights ago that I was at some sort of outdoor gathering on the streets of New York City. Suddenly Yoko was there and she picked me out of the crowd and handed me two pairs of John's glasses. There were people all around and reporters trying to ask me questions but all I could do was cling to the glasses and cry because I was touching something that John had touched.
I wonder what a psychoanalyst would make of that one.
Normally the Beatles are no more than a step or two away from my thoughts from morning till night. When they are a constant presence in my life I feel close to them, as though I've been spending time with them.
Sometimes, though, I will go through a period where, unintentionally, I drift away from them. I get very busy with other things and, somehow, they get pushed out of my mind. I don't think about them much at all. It doesn't happen often; I have to be extremely busy with a variety of things going on in my life all at once. The past few weeks have been one of those times and now I find myself missing my boys. I feel like I haven't seen them in ages and I'm realizing there's a hole there where they belong.
I brought my "Help!" DVD to California with me so tomorrow night I will sit down and watch it and spend some good, quality time with the lads. I need to reconnect with them.
