so it's good and it's complicated

There are the new friends from Pheonix for a week and nights at the bar where I know everyone. There's learning how to talk in the kitchen, fighting back tears and slicing carrots. There's paying the bills and watching tornados over the ice cream parlor; there's also a wedding approaching and it's certainly not mine. Two nights of waitressing, my first won game of Scrabble- there's a summer approaching and that, well that is mine all mine. So frightening and impending in a blackclouds/bluesky kinda way. There are days that start good and go sour at midnight on the beach, when it doesn't make sense to you and it doesn't make sense to me. Then there's the first thing I see every morning and shopping for vegetables and all the same friends and all those friends who moved away.

Semalea says that Jenny Lewis is stupid but I can't get enough of her, or Neko Case. We saw Wilco in Meridian last Wednesday and I can't believe I didn't give A Ghost is Born a second chance. Hanging out with Shereen was so great. I was happier eating at Waffle House with Anderson than I ever thought I would be. I love watching people react to him.

Will's friend Rebecca stayed with us a week so we cooked a lot and went to New Orleans and Mobile. Having apartment guests is fun, especially when they are as sweet and adorable as this funky lady.

It's six thirty, where's This American Life? Has programming changed?
