i find it interesting where i find my inspiration. usually it comes in random bursts. when i wrote this song i found inspiration from rain and thunder. i wrote it late one night back in June or July when it was raining out. i was just about to go to bed, and i went to close my window but i stopped and  stood there for  a while taking in my surroundings. the smell, the feeling, the mood in the air, and i was just awe struck at the simple beauty of it all. and so as i do everything, i attempted to write it down in a song. this is the product. except this time i had an idea to try and add sounds to it, specifically a thunderstorm. so i spent a week or two looking for sounds, and then trying to edit it into the song. tell me what you think.

Pitter Patter (Rain Lullabye) - Micah Friesen

These past five or six weeks I've been working at a tree nursery. the first week was hard, but it seems to be slowly getting better, and generally easier. probably because I'm learning the routine. but there are still a few 'bad' days, like this past Monday, i woke up at around five thirty with a bad stomach ache and have to take regular trips to the washroom, and i didn't think id be able to make it through the day, because usually where i work, we are out on job sites. and they generally don't have washrooms that we can use. but i found and took some drugs that plugged me up enough to make it through. its that part of the job that probably worries/ scares me the most. not having a regular place to take a dump. its kinda silly i know, but its genuine. anyway, its past my bed time, so where ever you are i hope you have a good sleep.
