"it's been a nice.. eighteen hours or so.." now the tv's still on in my room up the hall where we were, and i'm completely content doing nothing about it. and i feel somewhat odd saying that, but maybe sometimes i should just let these overly romanticized situations/notions (listening to plans for the first time while driving alone straight ( Read more... )

i'd been meaning to for weeks. now i've been listening to the long winters for hours, and i'm thinking that was probably a poor decision, hearing my heart pound in my ears style, upbeat songs/close-to-home hopeless lyrics perfection style, not especially associating any of these songs with any event/person so they're all about now style, i couldn' ( Read more... )

i want to write and i want to talk to people and i want to sleep as i work at 7:30am and got up at the 8:30am... the technical 9:30am... in real world (i.e. east coast) terms.. and clearly right now i'm choosing option one. we'll keep this succinct for right now ( Read more... )

so i'm listening to between the bridges (my third favorite sloan album), and got to "waiting for slow songs" (one of my favoritest sloan songs), and then, just at that very moment, i became kinda sorta definitely excited for the show. i really wasn't before (i mean, spoon's in two days -- priorities!). they should play this whole album straight ( Read more... )

shortly after i was seen off saturday from the good old one-thirty out of track twenty-three (from a whirlwind kinda couple city days, of course), i had a sore throat. i still do. much worse at night/in the mornings. but not getting worse. and if it were strep or anything worse than a cold/necessitating antibiotics, i'd not have been able to ( Read more... )
