TVD’s The Idelic Hour with Jon Sidel

Greetings from Laurel Canyon!

The formless matters of the brain / Inequality of the drifting chain / A moment I could learn to love / The salutations to the levels above / We’ll split the difference, call it quits / This is no new romantic blitz-krieg / Pull off the foil and watch it break / A whisper’s crushing all the sympathy gates / A Love to tear you off

For years now, I’ve been writing a paragraph to intro The Idelic Hour. By Fridays I often don’t have much to say. I’ve been reading a bit about “online burnout.” I gather it’s fatigue and stress due to a prolonged use of technology. I Googled the condition and here are some of the symptoms:

1. Can’t get excited about work 2. Stopped putting in the effort 3. Performance is suffering 4. Exhausted 5. Dealing with physical ailments.

Hmmm? By Friday I’m tired, but I think I’m just getting old?

I’d rather blab about the weather. It’s been so nice this week in the canyon. The first warm mornings of 2022. I’m beyond sky high and coming to you with yet another Idelic hour I could listen to over and over!
