i’m getting really drunk with my dad and learning lots of things about life.
July 2012
We'll live on coffee and flowers
oh, don’t mind me. just casually crying to Conversation 16 in my car.
I'm Writing a Novel
Father John Misty
Heidegger and Sartre, drinking poppy tea
I could’ve sworn last night I passed out in my van and now these guys are pouring one for me
I’ll never leave the canyon ‘cause I’m surrounded on all sides
By people writing novels and living on amusement rides
I want what he’s having.
I’ll write things I’ll never tell you, I’ll do things I’ll never write, and I’ll tell you anything that will keep you listening.
I resign myself, I attempt to design myself. Oh, illustrious notions of grandeur, of stone-cold aloofness, of enviable detachment! Try as I might, I’m not entirely unaware. I’ll attempt to naively believe that I do not give myself wholly, whereas in actuality I end up being swallowed whole, cracked open and spit out again like the seed of a sunflower.
what festival is Best Coast NOT playing???
haha…well they’re not at FYF! but that’s okay, I did see them at Coachella. Which only further proves your point…
Ugggh what a fantastic lineup…why do you get all the good music in California :(
Real California music; it’s THE music.
My friend and I actually might go. I NEED to see TV on the Radio.
TV on the Radio kicks some serious ass live. But…there’s going to be HORDES of people that don’t even like them there (because it’s free) and 95% of them will be drunken buffoons (because it’s Huntington Beach). I’m not sure about it. I’m just not sure.
It’s great. It makes the music and the show exponentially more enjoyable.
I concur!
I like to hold faith in the idea that, when you do what you love, your love will find you. Would you agree?
I’m not making any blanket statements on love anymore. It’s a lovely notion, though. I’d like to believe so.

Shelter from the storm
Bob Dylan
I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn. “Come in” she said, “I’ll give you shelter from the storm…”
“I’m not sentimental—I’m as romantic as you are. The idea, you know, is that the sentimental person thinks things will last—the romantic person has a desperate confidence that they won’t.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald
I'm sure I will find myself back there some time, and already have a few stores in mind! do you see yourself staying in long beach for awhile?
let me in on these store ideas! I’m itching to try somewhere other than fingerprints and amoeba. And yes, I rather do! That is, if I can find a roommate my next month -_-
One of my favorite things about live shows is watching band members get down to their own music. It melts my icy heart.
Just A Boy
Angus & Julia Stone
I bit my tongue in the awkward conversation
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
I met you once and I’d fallen for your notions
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
So, you fear the future? Of not becoming something more than what you are now? I feel that kind of terror. Chills me to the bones. It never sleeps either, so neither do I.
In a way, I’m pretty resigned to my mediocre life always being mediocre. All my grandeur notions have gone away, for the most part. So it doesn’t upset me so much anymore. Hopefully your fear will keep it from happening, though.
I'd reveal myself gladly, if anything just to meet you for some coffee and listen to you speak about what you love most. Music and poetry. Feelings and moments. It's just I know I am not doing what I should be. I'm not following where my passion leads. Although I certainly try. I'm not good enough for anyone just yet. I've got my life to figure out. As long as this site exists though, we'll be connected. I'll be here.
Well, I don’t think I am good enough for anyone yet either. Maybe I’ll get there, and maybe I won’t. But, well…you’ve got me rather forlorn all of a sudden…
Wow. *Okay face*
you must know I kid.
And the moon shines bright on the water tonight,
so we won’t drown in the summer sound.
yo, how come no one ever anonymously asks to kiss me?
maybe because no one want to kiss yo face!
heh.
Tragic or otherwise. Misguided or not. People sometimes gravitate toward each other for no apparent reason. On here even more so, for the wrong reasons mostly, but I'm speaking figuratively about wanting to kiss you. Just came to my mind. Not like I'd ever be able to, but maybe someday we'll actually meet each other, somewhere or other. Perhaps, though even more so fantasy, you'll want to kiss me too...
*sigh* perhaps, oh anonymous one. maybe this would go a little better if you weren’t so anonymous. I’m open to just about anything, these days.
Is it so silly a thing for me to want to do? You're quite exquisite and I like to imagine the details. If I were next you, I think the desire to kiss you would be overwhelming.
Exquisite? Moi? Surely you jest, mon amie. But it is a nice sentiment, however tragically misguided :/
Bright Whites
Kishi Bashi
listen to this and make tears with me
this song is really all kinds of great.
I want to kiss your face...
now why would you want to go and do a silly thing like that?
Spacetime
Gardens & Villa
this is one groovy little ditty.
the lead singer breaks out his flute from a fringed pouch on his back. absolute whimsy, I tell you.
Watching Gardens and Villa get down and cover Gypsy by Fleetwood Mac was absolutely splendid.
there’s always a siren
singing you to shipwreck
( don’t reach out,
don’t reach out )
So Many Wizards - Inner City

Operation Get Drunk and Boogey Down to Gardens and Villa is a go!
Chill, Cait, I’ll drive.
don’t lie! you’re drunk of Kraken. Which is like, DUI in a bottle :’(
