tonight at the Trocadero
Greg Farley named me president of the Felice Brothers Fan Club and invested me with the power of Banhammer.

Today I bought my first pair of new glasses in like four or five years. My mom used to hold it as a matter of some pride to go forever between new pairs of glasses, but either I have worse eyesight than she does or she’s half blind all the time, because I’ve been feeling this ever increasingly over the past few months and am really ready for a change. When I’m squinting everyday...

(The butter-marinara spaghetti is really good though. Throw some sauteed garlic spinach or other green vegetable in there and it’s almost like you’re eating a well-rounded meal.)

I was going to write something smart here
but instead I’m just waxing poetic in my head like a fucking gourmand about the junk food I’m working on in stages because there’s enough for two helpings tonight & one for tomorrow’s breakfast too. (I like to be prepared.)
So, I guess, scratch that.

For the record, I am repulsed whenever *any* dude, regardless of looks, catcalls or harasses me (or any other woman for that matter) — and many other women feel the same.
Also I feel weird whenever any stranger approaches me on the street or tells me I have nice [insert name of body part here]. If we’re being totally honest, I personally feel weird whenever a friend does that either.

That being said, my bandmate at the time of that anecdote looked rather like Conor Oberst, pretty much worshiped Conor Oberst, behaved very similarly to Conor Oberst (from what I have gathered from the few times I’ve interacted with Conor Oberst), and even ended up hanging out with/losing the master copy of our demo tape to David Dondero.
So that might count for something. Also it makes me...

Wait the guy in your anecdote was conor oberst? I’m laughing
No, alas! I just think he and that kid are probably cut from similar cloth in certain ways. I have listened to Cassadaga … quite a number of times and thought I even remembered him referencing such a thing on that album. My memory served. Maybe not the exact part where he put his hood up and sat on the floor...

One time, after I recounted some of my experiences with the intent to entertain, someone earnestly asked me if I had been “homeless by choice.”
It was a really odd question and one that I was not used to hearing. While I had naturally encountered a lot of trustafarians and upper-middle-class douchebags playing Paris Commune, because those kind of people are unavoidable in...

Also I was well on my way to becoming a cynical chainsmoking near-recluse *way* before I decided to live in a van, join a band, or become a freelancer in the independent-music industry.
Those things just really helped the process along.

i see your approximated sunlight reference in the tags. unless i’m mistaken. i like your posts about this kinda stuff i want ur life-knowledge
Good catch! You are not mistaken. I have mostly made my peace with Conor as a cultural icon … although I imagine he’s totally the type to sit cross-legged on a slightly older woman’s floor and talk about how religion is...

HEYNA COUNTRY OR YOUNS COUNTRY?
Nort’west. I’m from as far north as you can get in PA without being underwater, and it’s a region which combines the best of that state with the grander aspects of rural New York and a pinch of eastern Canada to round it out. Nothing against New York or Canada, but I got out as soon as I could.
