Rocketman - Elton John

She packed my bags last night, pre-flight
Zero hours, 9 a.m.
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then

I miss the Earth so much
I miss my wife
Its lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight

This song keeps running through my head. Probably and possibly because some of my friends think that the therapy shoes we sell look like spaceboots.

Also, the fact that my next patient coming in is an Englishman and I have teased him somewhat regarding this and I find it funny.

But also because this song is so mournful. And as much as Elton John has disappeared into the ether nowadays, this song and his voice just screams isolation.

Something that piques my interest, of course.

And I think its gonna be a long long time
'Til touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man you think I am at all
Oh, no no no
I'm a rocket man

Rocketman

Rocketman.
Poor guy.

And I guess in the grand scheme of things, it does get pretty lonely out there.

You know how there are some songs that just take you away? Its like one of those magical Disney scenes where Dick van Dyke asks you to close your eyes and when you open them again, you're in this wonderful place where colour pastel drawings come to life.

This songs reminds me of them.

At this moment in time, I think I'm in a position where I find myself restless, wanting to move, wanting to get out and start doing things again. I sure as hell don't know what I want or need to do but heck, I need to get moving. This place is starting to choke me again. And for goodness sake, I had enough of that when I first moved here.

Where to next? I think that'll be a secret for now.
