* Earache is better, thank you.
* Eyes feeling better not watching the war on TV tonight, and theres two new sets from Seraphim mmmmmm, divine.
* Everything sounding better listening to the joyous and almost dance-y, Jam-meets-Spoon-meet-Rolling-Stones-1964 garage-pop of Washington Social Club and the oh-man-what-if-Cat-Power-and-Billie-Holliday-had-an-Appalcahian-love-child-in-the-30s music of Jolie Holland two of my favorite new things. Speaking of new things, the new Yo La Tengo has yet to bowl me over. Though -- (old man alert!) Theyve *always* been favorites I mean Christ (blowhard alert!) that was the first big piece I wrote for the VOICE and I was at Ira and Georgias wedding 16 or however many years ago (more 'cause they were afraid I'd show up whether they invited me or not -- I was almost too much of a fan of that band backintheday)!
* Head feeling clearer subject of AA mtg tonight was honesty, heard some good stuff depiste the fact that the very mention of the word somehow earwormed the Billy Joel hit of the same name into my puny brain.
* Most importantly for the state of the world (my little world at least), my egos doing excellently, too had some people whose work I admire email ME today almost begging to get into the next Yeti. Wow; also sold two full page ads from people who wrote me asking for ads who have cool little labels. Very easy, very nice.
* Finally, I had a little time to kill so I went into whats basically Seattles coolest record store and a very cute girl who works there and who just broke up with her boyfriend asked me to dinner on her break then when I was splitting said Oh gimme your number and then she gave me hers. And I really dont know if shes interested in like being pals or more-than, but damn it was nice -- shes really cool and enthusiastic and super bright and I can always use more pals Im not sure Im looking for anything more right now, but thats not to say Im not not-looking. Knowmsayin?
*** Yeah that qualifies as a pretty good day, all things considered! AND I FUCKING NEEDED IT!!! [Whew, what a shitty week this has been for everyone (esp. the oil-pawns on either side of the USA's hostile takeover of Iraq!!)]
