Récréation - New messages to cheer me up
Five long hours of work from remote.
This morning, a bizarre and amusing dream helped me to wake up in time for my first cours à distance (I will never use the words distanciel and présentiel: I hate this abusive newspeak adopted since 2020 lockdown) and I have been working without having a break for three hours and a half, including the 20 minutes of récréation. I have just had a break now: I checked on Morrissey Central and found two new messages: a picture of a music shop in Hollywood and also many photographs (by Ryan Lowry) of hugs during the encore of Morrissey's show in Tempe. Thanks to the unknown (to me) YouTube user Cliffordyee745 (whoever you are, grazie mille!), yesterday I watched the video of Suedehead in Arizona: I am glad for the lucky huggers, especially for the ones who had never hugged Morrissey before.
Will I have their chance, some day, despite my shyness, my clumsiness and an even bigger obstacle, the unpredictability of the venues and their local crew?
Whether I will succed or not, I am always glad to see the Silver Boy happy on stage.
One show left before two weeks of rest for Morrissey and his band and crew... and then, a new start in Europe in three weeks.
