bummertown

our flight got canceled! i was really looking forward to riding around on a train through the mountains with heather. oh well.

i hope your wedding goes well brandon.

on a more positive note, the most adorable thing of all time.
i had a dream about a song, and when i woke up i jumped out of bed and grabbed my moleskine and wrote it down really quick.

except, i don't know how to write down sheet music proper, so i kind of just made marks roughly indicating how high the note was. and i did it in the dark, so none of the lines are really where i thought they would be. and i'm not really any good at making music anyways. and i think that's one imaginary song that's just going to have to be lost in the sands of time.

i think you'll understand

you know what? "i wanna hold your hand" is a really great song. i think i kind of took it for granted until recently 'cause it's one of those songs that everybody knows, and it's so simple, but the first line of the chorus just blows my mind. it's so pure, or raw, or something. i probably sound really pretentious, but it really just hit me again today. maybe it's a simple song, but i think it's something that resonates with everybody.

and it sounds really good, too.

i don't think i'm ready for my friends to start getting married.

this week i re-imported, like, forty CDs that had dropped out of my music collection after a hard drive crash. in addition to realizing i have like twelve CDs from mush records that i don't even remember, i became obsessed with "post" by björk and listened to it like five times in a row, and then i found this cover of "possibly maybe" by owen pallett (née final fantasy) and ed droste.



i don't think it's quite as good as the original, and i don't know who ed droste is, but i kind of have a crush on owen pallett, so it gets a pass!

today i ate something called a "pizza burger". i ordered it just because of the name, and it lived up to its title more than i possibly imagined it ever could. i don't know what i was expecting?
