Sean: There’s nothing wrong with wanting to be perfect.
Julia: Only if you’re willing to fail.
the rotted love manipulates me
and I, I, you, we’re not thinking my stromata
is there anything worth looking for worth loving for worth lying for is there anything worth waiting for worth living for worth dying for

Saw Ingrid Michaelson in concert the other day. Have to say, she comes across much better live than she does on her album tracks. On stage she has lots of personality, she’s very funny and friendly, and much more energy comes through her voice and the instruments/general sound than was captured in the album production. I like her songs a whole lot more now than before the concert.
a: What’s the difference between these two rosés?
Waiter: Well, they’re both rosés so they’re going to be really similar.
a: ….
Waiter: One comes in a half bottle, the other one comes in a full bottle (as was clearly marked on the menu). But they’re both pretty much the same wine.

J: You walk fast for a girl with little legs. (says the woman who’s probably six feet tall)
me: I had to learn to keep from being trampled in middle school.
J: Hahaha
me: … It wasn’t funny at the time…
Playing with Xobni for the first time.
A little mesmerized… Can’t give a real review yet, but I will say it is very fast, fluid, and pretty!
Much appreciation to John for the invite. I did get a direct invite from Xobni shortly thereafter, but still — thank you for the Xobni invite, John!
*update: okay, a couple of issues:
Old Canal really is a beautiful road, especially on a weekend with few cars. Against every instruction on my GoogleMaps printout, phone GPS navigator, and road signs that kept insisting I was only headed to Virginia and that I should be turning left, right, anywhere but where I was going, I kept straight because I’ve been on that road many times before; I know it leads home.

About half a decade ago, I went to a Matchbox Twenty/Lifehouse/Everclear concert. Seems like another lifetime; a different stage, different actors.
