We had a really funny moment today, and it truly showed what this touring life is like and that no matter our differences, there are some things that we are all going through. We were gathered around the TV watching Idlewild. (I didn’t know how the film would favor with the English, Canadian, Irish, and Belgium folk, or if they would even be able to appreciate it, but it went over pretty well.) Well, we were watching this movie, and we came to the scene where Percival (Andre 3000) and the songstress “Angel” had a hott love scene. Before this moment everyone had been making little comments, laughing here and there, and not everyone was watching, a couple people were passing through. But as soon as the love making started, the extra movement went to nothing and the sound in the room went from comments to whispers to silence, almost immediately. Every single person was just staring at the TV with a glazed over look in our eyes. Even when one girl tried to catch a joke, there was only a slight giggle, but it quickly evaporated. Everyone’s attention was fixed on the television and the chocolate and caramel bodies rolling around in passion. Once the scene was over, it was like everyone came up for air. After a brief silence, someone sarcastically muttered, “I think we may be going through withdrawal.” We immediately burst into an explosive laughter. Until that moment every eye was stuck on that screen and even funnier, everyone’s legs were crossed or pressed together in some way. Just then the only other person in the flat, not watching walked into the kitchen where we all were, and with perfect timing said, “What happened?” Again, we burst into laughter, because only moments ago we were all collectively experiencing a moment of weakness, plagued by and immersed in our own fantasies, and totally oblivious to any one else in the room, or in the world for that matter. I think we’re all in desperate need of some serious TLC.
