Listening to Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works Volume II, the complete version, which I pieced together from the various compilations the "extra" tracks were scattered on, onto two cdrs.  It plays wonderfully and complete, the movements in arrangement, composition, and melody are breathtaking.  It makes me wish Richard would release another album like this, beautiful and brilliant, nearly to the point of tears. RIght now the outside sun drifts over my back, warming it.  I'm lying stomach down, my face resting lightly on the left cheek, head resting in the carpet.  The wind drifts over my legs, it's a bit too cold to match the warm sunshine on my back.  The weather feels like the weather on the first day of school, warm yet cold; the beginning of the fall season.  Oddly, the weather at the beginning of each term has seemed the same to me, at least in memory.  Warm but cold in this way.  The sun out but with a chilly wind, and myself enclosed in a jacket, although the jacket varies from year to year as I grow out of them. I'm just lying here, peacefully, wondering what the point of all this is.
