WHAT WAS YOUR GREATEST CHILDHOOD FEAR?
Mine was that this giant pickle man would follow me up the stairs in the dark.  I pretty much still sprint up them. Also that spiders would watch me take showers.

MUSINGS: Self-involved, absorbed, centered.
When I was younger, I thought that there were a lot of me.  Like a lot a lot.  Not like really fat (sometimes I feel really fat which is a whole other blog post with words like positive body image, it might happen).  Like automatically a different person in every situation.  I didn’t actually change clothes ore anything between social interactions, but I certainly changed the way I spoke...

Things I Like Today v. 2
I’ve been watching Top Gear a lot recently.  I mean, not that much, but relative to how much I normally watch it (which is like maybe once every six months), four times in two weeks is a lot.  It’s awesome.  British celebrities are a lot smarter than Americans.  I know it’s aural trickery because the accent is just ever so posh, trompe l’oreille, amirite?  I was watching...

Careful there, tiger.
By this time of the evening I’ve decided whether or not the day has been successful (of course depending on what I mean by success) and also whether or not I’m going to be going out.  Tonight, it is a check mark for successful and a non check mark for going out.  Instead, I am going to celebrate with a nice full episode of Glee at 9, sleeping by 10:30 PM, and a hug to myself. It turns...

Things I Like Today
I am listening to a kickass song by Silver Swans called Bi Polar Bear.  I have listened to it a BUNCH from the next thing on my list, but give me a second to discuss how great this song is.  It makes me smile & feel incredibly lucky. Stereomood!  Should I link it?  Maybe I will.  There.  You get to pick the mood you are in and a playlist of really great new & old songs is generated for...

Euphonious. Dulcet. Mellifluoooous.
Reasons to love the Largo: My God, it’s beautiful.  It’s one of the prettiest (it took me four tries to spell that no joke) venues I’ve had the pleasure to be in.  Gates and fleurs de lis.  Good location, shitty parking.  Oh well. It’s really very small.  Intimate venues are automatically better.  I’m such a pompous fuck.  But as much as I love going to huge places...

MOCKINGS
First of all, I’d like to say that I’m just thrilled whenever I see more than one play of the songs I have posted here.  It means that someone is actually reading some of what I’m saying.  I mean typing.  Oh, you. Even if you’re skipping down to the song, a few words probably burrowed into your eyes anyway.  Ha ha. I made up a new game.  The only person I’ve already...

In between.
I was driving back from Malibu during the evening time & found myself on Kanan-Dune (maybe it’s Dume, too lazy, sry) Road (oh damn I don’t know if this street appellation is correct either, aaah).  Have you been there, at a strange time in your life?  It’s a really long & twisty road, and especially cool at dusk because it’s deeply shadowed. I just want to remember...

Hey guy, what’s up? Have a good night last night?  Nah, I’m just kidding, I know the answer to that.  You thought that the concert was “so good”.  And you felt it completely necessary to remark upon that fact twenty times in as many minutes.  But I’m getting ahead of myself. I have a hell of a time whenever I go to concerts at the Natural History Museum.  It’s...

RETROSPECTIVE: The Decemberists
Four years ago, I met a boy named Alex.  We met, we hugged, we kissed, we stopped kissing.  We hug again now. He made me listen to a band called The Decemberists.  Maybe I liked them because a boy I liked wanted me to like them, or maybe I liked them in their own right.  I don’t know.  In the four years since I’ve heard them, I have never been able to make up my mind about Colin...

In which I come clean.
Okay, Internet.  Here we go, here’s the deal, here’s the thing. These are the blogs I like: Gala Darling!  Oh jeez she’s so cute.  She’s so smart.  She has good taste in music and is very sensual for a New Zealand girl.  (I’m just kidding I don’t know anything about the Deep South, ha ha.)  I love her Lust For Life [Girls ref (nouveau indie ref)] and she loves...
