When I went to mail my mom a card yesterday at the post office, they made me buy a 70 cent stamp instead of the normal one. Apparently the card felt "puffy" since it had a little ribbon thingie on it (inside the envelope) and they said it couldn't be "machine processed" and cost more.

it still holds up pretty well for me.

Jane Says - Jane's Addiction. The louder, the better.

Pop tarts. the little foil wrappers are impervious to radiation or other ill affects.

not since that one time when he set it on fire

why are painters' outfits white?

Seven Zed Heaven is 11:15 of gorgeousness.

I would love to see him, and really wanted to get Louisville tickets. But all the lower arena tickets are (were) $250. That is just absurd in my book.

Today I realized that none of our kids are going to a prom this year, as they have all graduated high school. This was accompanied by a wave of stresslessness and gratitude.

We saw St. Vincent do a cover of Lithium on Tuesday night in Cinci as an encore. She nailed it.

Gallon Drunk. In Budapest. On a barge. Should be interesting.

it's all about today, really. tomorrow never knows.

Had "Cycle", "Wave", and "Phase" on a loop in the car today. Really left me wanting more of that. I wonder what "Wave" would be if he took a "One Sunday Morning" approach to it... I could see it being a 10 minute song that seemed to last only 5.

Is it just me, or do John and Jason have an awfully similar head of hair?

Smoking a couple pork shoulders all day. Kids are at the local comic con all day. Watching lots of basketball. Pretty good stuff...

DAY OFF!!

psst.... "summer residency"

Big: Roger Waters / The Wall (yes, all 3 times). Small: Califone in a bar in Louisville in January. Maybe 40 people.

From the facebook (which, incidentally, I just joined yesterday. So I guess I'm not going to be the final holdout on the planet...)

I am greatly enjoying this record

Lots of love to you all.
