Sex through denim
Mercury Rev rules my sonic world these days. If you do not know of them, investigate and do your soul justice. Kinda like Neil Young singing for a Beach Boys/New Order band produced by Phil Spector with me as president of the United States of the Beaches of America in 1993. With REM as vice president, My Bloody Valentine as Secretary of State and Stone Roses in charge of both fuzzy and jangly guitar. 'Nuff said.
I am also into a Camper Van Beethoven album recorded last year. New Roman Order. It's a concept album along the lines of American Idiot. Best songs on the disc? Let's see: "That Gum You Like is Back In Style", "I Hate This Part of Texas", and "Hippie Chix."
I hate and love mass produced music. In the case of these two discs, they are diamonds I was blessed to find in the rough of this week. And this week was rough. CG and I are on a tight wire swinging, doing our best to balance the other for fear of the other falling into the net of despair. Her celly song ring of me is "Fix You". I always thought of it as an ode to her. I can see now why she might want to see it as an ode to me. My celly song of hers is Sweet Home Alabama. It's her fave song. But she also likes club 80's disco. So I'm thinking of forming a Garage Band online Band called Banaramabama. Southern rock mixed with brit cheeze disco. Anyone shakin booty yet? My music, my life, my job, my thoughts? A hug in the park with a stolen kiss. Graceful, anchored and warm.

Red Sox Blues
What has become of my beloved Red Sox? Last year, I made a deal with God: Give us this World Series, and I won't even ask for a playoff game for 5 years. I got the series, and now I am wallowing in a quagmire of grief at the thought of elimination at the hands of the White Sox. I can feel my heart sinking, my stomach churning with nausea, my spirit returning to the black shadows from which it had so recently been delivered.
Cellular Mitosis
Just bought a new celly.
Bluetooth, MP3, speaker, camcorder kicking.
