finals are done. thanks for the well wishes, everyone.
tonight i leave on a red eye to a political conference where i'll meet barack obama and howard dean (again) as well as other assorted characters. i'm not a dean fan, although i naively used to be before i knew about his stance on the death penalty, his drastic cuts to education in vermont, his support from aipac (hinting a lack of compassion for palestinians) etc. at any rate the conference is on gun violence and geared towards future health professionals. i'm regretting signing up for something immediately after finals because my place is a goddamn mess, as is my head, and i still have to pick up dry cleaning, pack, call my host, blah blah.
tonight is also my boyfriend's first solo gig, which should be exciting.
so over the next week i think i will be learning how to skateboard. anybody know how difficult it would be for someone over the age of 9 to learn? gotta go buy a skateboard tonight...
i think i'm going to upload a picture or two over the next day or so into my pic folder.
ps i am obsessed with this damn brian eno song (by this river). i think i have listened to it and three mile pilot's cover of it like 8 times. that's pathetic.
brian eno is hot

Erik Truffaz (trompetist / electro Jazz) really really good, contrabass/drummer are mofos. i would say album "Mantis".
Maybe Niels Petter Molvaer (nightmare to spell), hard to find - album Khmer -. For somethin more "peachy", bah, try Mr Bungle. Let me know if you found some of these and if you feel ok with it.
Paris is a pretty nice city, thing that you easily forget walking by the streets since a few - lot of- years. Guess that s the same for all cities. Good to remind. +. Good trip.
