“Spirit in the Sky,” Norman Greenbaum
Hi guys! I did that weird Zen ski camp this weekend with Kristen Ulmer, who is the most fascinating and emotionally compelling person I have ever met IRL, and all these random people at different places in their lives and wildly disparate financial circumstances, and I think I may have had an actual spiritual awakening? It will probably pass? It was also great for my skiing, but then I hockey-stopped really aggressively, because I was skiing in the Voice of the Athlete, or the Snake, or the River, or something, and didn’t time it right and totally sprayed this (justifiably) cranky older gentleman and said something like “oh, my God, I’m so sorry, I’m having a transformative experience,” and slunk off. So, essentially, I’m feeling a lot like Laura Dern right now, and here is a great song to ski to. Or hike to. Or drink a beer in the sun to. Be the ball, Danny.
