I'm not a huge Ryan Adams fan - honestly I find him a bit catty and self-obsessed - but I'll admit that he occasionally finds moments of brilliance.

yes be careful before the music snobs descend ;_;

this was all good and sage advice where did it stem from and how are you feeling jay ouderkirk?

Re: epilogue posteverything March 6 2006, 15:31:12 UTC

Descend they will, and if I don't explain my stance on Ryan Adams they're liable to take my Hipster Card away from me. I'm going to need it to catch Low at the Record Bar next month, after all..

Cowgirl For Jesus, I'm doing all right I guess. It's difficult sometimes being manic-depressive but I believe I pull it off with a certain amount of style and - dare I say - panache.

Re: epilogue cowgirlforjesus March 6 2006, 15:34:52 UTC

we superstars and superstar misanthropists do tend to pull off this manic-depression stuff with sass, elegance and grace. it's true. listen to ryan adams all you want and i'll still listen to coldplay once in a while.

I'm having trouble saying what I want to say.

So I'll just tell you thanks, because even if this isn't meant that way, I can take it as such. And probably need to.

Maybe I should translate this into Esperanto and it would sound better.

I kind of had you and B in mind when I wrote this, actually, as a kind of elusive answer to your reply..not to call you out on what's going on in your life right now or anything like that but, since you responded..

..you see where I'm going with this, yeah?

Through them, maybe they can help you recall the simple joy of life that is always there, invisible but ever-present.

I sincerely hope that my children can reinstill in me the tiny idiosyncrasies of life that i have so easily forgotten.

I've never been to the Grand Canyon. Damon's dad lives about 2 hours from there, and we are trying to plan a trip out there some time in the upcoming months. I can only imagine how small one must feel standing beside it.

posteverything March 6 2006, 16:50:57 UTC

Certainly, the children we'll have together will do that for us in spades. We're good people, you and I, despite what the courts might say.

About 2 hours? He doesn't happen to live anywhere around Prescott/Sedona, does he?

solitaryfairy March 6 2006, 17:00:39 UTC

But of course. We'd have some mighty fine babies, Prince. We would indeed. :)

Tuscon. I think. My Aunt lives in Chandler, which i believe is not too far from the canyon either.

posteverything March 6 2006, 17:01:45 UTC

Tucson's a bit more than 2 hours, but Chandler's certainly close. But yeah, you should definitely go. You'll thank yourself for the rest of your life.

Thank you.

posteverything March 6 2006, 18:59:05 UTC

You're welcome.

I hope what you wrote finds it way into the heart of the person you wrote it for... even if they don't see it, or hear it from you, I hope deep down, they somehow know.

posteverything March 6 2006, 19:01:41 UTC

In a lot of ways though, I wrote this for everybody who might read this. Too often do I read or hear about bad things going on in friends' lives, so I thought I'd remind everyone of just how great they are. I figured: hey, it's Monday, what better day to unleash this upon an unsuspecting public.

That and I stumbled upon a quote from Gore Vidal: life is mostly luck. I'm not sure if I agree. There's luck sure, but so much else.
