spaghetti, man! that's it, man!

now playing: dolly varden, "be a part"

the songs that show up in "now playing" are all in a huge (huge meaning several thousand) song playlist that perpetually resides in my mp3 server here at work - dolly varden is a great, great band - and it struck me as i was getting ready to drop this entry in and that song was playing that they're from chicago.

this time tomorrow i'll be in chicago. just struck me as funny, that's all.

b.w. stevenson came on right afterward, but i have no impending texas travel plans at the moment....

gonna bring along our antique compaq laptop so i can try to keep my word count up...jayda asked me last night if i was gonna be working on my book before i went to bed. she's hooked.

that just kills me.

i'm glad i'm doing this.

i also gave her my copy of william kotzwinkle's the fan man, which she's gobbling up as well. my buddy the jaymeister gave that to me many moons ago, and it's been a point of reference for many, many conversations that have taken place between he and i in the time since. books, man. very cool, man.

i haven't seen dylan all week, though. he has his father's trait of avoidance in the face of anger or tension.

did i mention what a great band dolly varden is?
