Wool-gathering

wool-gathering
noun:
indulgence in aimless thought or dreamy imagining; absent-mindedness.

This word once literally referred to ‘the act of gathering loose tufts of wool that had gotten caught on bushes and fences as sheep passed by’. I myself am a wool-gatherer. Bring back wool-gathering! May it long prosper!

Join me as each episode I curate a list of tracks for all of your daydreaming needs. Yearning girl hour; what you imagined parties would be like at 13, limerence floor 10 library crush; angry stomp grrrr; I'm a reject baby; park anyone?; you just cut your own bags it's that bad; moving to the big city; your dad hogging the aux in the car; hey you're in LOVE, staringattheceilingican’tgettosleep; cooking tea with the windows open in a tiny apartment somewhere in Spain; nostalgia will kill me... You get the idea...

Armed with the past to look back on, the future to long for, and many an imaginary world to be built — let’s get lost together.
