(1) so i bought this random-ish double cd by this band have a nice life at aquarius, one of the few albums i've ever bought while listening over the loudspeaker in the store, and it's awesome -- goes from post-rock to some weird (but lovely) goth-rock (and no, i don't like type o negative) to doom metal. awesome, awesome purchase.
(2) so i am going to chicago a month or so from now to see ladytron and frog eyes (not together, but that would be awesome). i'm super-excited.
(3) i'm going to philadelphia and (ugh) baltimore again next week. i regret having to go to baltimore, but this is probably the last time i'm going there, which gives me some time to cut memories off. i'm excited about philadelphia, even though that city too is cloaked with a lot of regrets.
(4) i've been traveling bicoastally for the last month and a half and, now, i finally have some time to think and write and read, which is good. i'm still exhausted from all the traveling and even though it's mostly over i don't think i'll get some much-needed rest until i move to and settle down in LA.
(5) i still have to find an apartment in LA, and craigslist doesn't really help unless you're in the area already; i have to go there in july with the mom probably to look.
(6) i was in hollywood a month ago at this sushi bar next to the viper room and i couldn't help but think that river phoenix died on this block right next to the entrance. he took so many drugs!
(7) i wish i had done more drugs in college; i mean, not for the sake of doing them or getting addicted or anything, but i wish i had more perspective. i have heard of a lot of people doing cocaine or even heroin but still, i wish i had at least done LSD to experience some level of intersubjectivity or something crazy like that.
(8) i don't understand why john reis sounds different on pitchfork albums versus rocket of the crypt albums versus hot snakes albums versus the night marchers album (reis' new band, which i am really loving right now).
(9) i just bought the lp version of the muslims' debut and it's really good.
(10) i have nothing more to say really. oh, other than this:

it's that time of the year again where i diss your favorite band. come one, come all!
