Two weeks from tonight, I will be back in the loving, foggy arms of my only moderately boring hometown.
And I will have my baby by my side.
And my best friend from high school a mere five miles away.
Ah, Eureka. Please don't rain the whole time I'm there. I must have time to commune with the ocean and the redwoods and get in...

Lately, Tomo on Saturday or the Ritz on Thursday.

Sounds like some good times are waiting to be had.
So, you look to the left and you see my age, and judging by my age, you may conclude that I have a 10 year high school reunion coming up next year. Because I've moved around so much, I figured I had no hope of finding out if anything was going on, unless they just sent information to my dad's house.
Well, there I go...

I've gotten in touch with so many people I never thought I'd ever speak to again through myspace. It's a crazy little world.
Happy post-Thanksgiving food coma, everyone! Another great holiday, two more great apple pies that went over extremely well, despite the fact that our tempermental oven cooked the crumb topping a bit more to blackness than I like. Mmmm, cajun apple pie.
Yoga helped me move past my food coma. And now the Raveonettes are helping me to move past my yoga coma.

obd:
it was an amazing show. at least down here, she seems to choose venues with less expensive tickets. I'm fairly certain she would sell the wiltern out if she wanted to play there.

Dave has this picture of people sprinting into Walmart. True story. They were happy to give their money away for cheap consumer goods.
People should look for something real. Some real moment that proved they were worth the pain and sweat it took to birth them.
And they rush into Walmart.
This isn't even a drunk post. I suggest Walmart The High Cost of Low Price be given out to your loved ones this holiday season. Buy one copy and rip/burn the rest.
Okay. fin.

Why do I have the headache when it was all of you that did the drinking?
'Twas massive amounts of fun, though. And this time we came away with a few cans and bottles of alcohol, and a lovely green sweater. Does anyone wish to claim the sweater? hansel, I'm glancing in your direction.

It has been awhile since I was at a show that I honestly didn't want to end. Last night was such a show. It was a Merge Records triple bill, with Annie Hayden, Radar Bros., and Clientele, and all three were great. Annie, a bit too soft and wispy for my taste, but she was cute nonetheless, the Radar Bros., fucking awesome and my first...

But I'd take the Willamette nap after meeting someone that close to Jeff. So be glad I stayed at home.
I read an article in the NY Times that ruffled my feathers enough for me to write about it.
First, I'll give you a chance to read the article here. I hope it doesn't make you register. I'm sorry if it does. I figure most of us read the NY Times anyway.
So, now that you have read the article, let me share what...

I like the comment about how the mothers were all cheerleaders and beautyqueens with too much of a sense of entitlement.
Ugh...
Yeah, parents who don't take responsibility for their child's actions are the bane of the universe.

The correct answer is to prevent the ignorant from breeding. I fully support scooping out the sex organs of drug addicts, idiots and republicans (I know, I know, often the same thing).
I'm not even joking. This is why I'm not the worlds supreme overlord. Too bad for us, eh?

Broadcast was amazing. The lead singer has the sweetest voice in the entire world, I believe. I just wanted to sit her down and have her read to me. It felt strange to be out among the hipsters again, and I felt simultaneously invisible and conspicuous, if that's possible.

Thanks
Oh, and I forgot to mention that it was nice to finally sit and talk a little with you last week at Pirate
I'll definitely have to make it out more often on Thursdays!

hansel:
Huh. That's the first person who'd written me out of the blue. I guess I should have been nicer to her.
It amuses me to receive an email from Missy announcing that the SGB tour is coming to Portland, that Suicidegirls will be in Portland!!! What a rare and unusual treat!
I, however, will be at the Broadcast show. No half naked girls for me.

oooh. Broadcast.
Every morning, when I leave for work, I walk down my porch steps and move to open the front gate. Inevitably, there is a spider web woven across the latch, so that when I open the gate, the web is torn. I never see the spider, but I always leave the web remnants hanging, glistening with dew.
But, every day, the web is back, rebuilt,...

Last summer a big brown spider kept building a web on my car's passenger side mirror. I would take off in the morning and the web would be blown apart in the wind. The first time, I assumed the spider was blown away, too. Then it kept reappearing, morning after morning. Eventually I figured out that the spider was retreating into a groove in the mirror every time the wind picked up. You would think the spider would have picked a less windy place to keep building its web. It even survived a ride through the car wash one time. After a couple of weeks, I grew to respect that spider...it finally disappeared, though.
theinsomniac:
Your respect for nature is heartwarming.
Feeling SG nostalgic.
Do you guys remember when we used to leave testimonials for each other because it was the new thing to do? And when we would wish people happy birthday on the boards because the community was smallish enough to still risk venturing onto the boards? I joined SG mainly because the boards seemed cool, even if I don't talk that much. Now,...

My favorite SG memory? meeting you guys at pirate thursdays!
