birthday belle!!!!!

this is jain moralee. she is one of my muses. she lives in australia. we grew up in adelaide together though we didn't really know one another too well back then. my favorite recollection of her is very vivid. it was around 11.30pm on a week night at a bar in hindley street in the west end with spearmint green tiles. i forget the name of it. i think tom abbott was deejaying when i heard that all-too familiar piano rift at the beginning of stevie wonder's 'boogie on reggae woman' when suddenly across jives jain moralee and i have never seen such a fine performance of inner (and outer) groove happening for all the world to admire. it really was a moment and i know i wasn't the only one transfixed by this act of appreciation for stevie. you say dance, jain says 'hell yes'.
all good my friends, all good.
