Apr 30, 2023Comments Off on Sat in the sun and wrote a song in the field. Got chased by an aggressive goose who has been guarding my mailbox. Watched 13 Going On 30 and cried. Pretty good day.
This song is all about trust and mustering the bravery to speak the truth of what I actually need in a relationship. Anyone who has ever listened to my back catalog or has been following me on the internet for any number of years will already know I’ve had a pretty rough go with men. I think that had everything to do with me not being ready for good things to happen to me, and not knowing what I want.
Over the last decade I did a ton of work on myself to figure all of that out. I know what I want now — and especially know what I do not want. The Distracted EP is about finally being ready for someone truly good to enter the picture, and then having that someone appear.
It was such a sweet time in my life, getting to know him. Endless text threads, more Zooms and FaceTimes than I can count, plane rides back and forth between Portland and Boise, and just this unshakeable feeling that I had finally found the person I had been looking for all these years. I still have that feeling. Grateful every single day for this dude!
Part one of the Distracted short film showed me and my man before we had met. Part two is all about our getting to know each other, coming together, and diving into a long distance relationship.
Kill Rock Stars is going to keep releasing scenes until the full film comes out alongside the EP in July, so stay tuned! Lots more headed your way…
