Oct.10.01 Today is C.'s birthday! Happy birthday, Baby! The bright yellow and red leaves and rainy gray skies make me feel like listening to a certain kind of music. Calexico and Nick Drake and Freakwater or maybe even that Liz Phair early rarities tape. They make me want to dig out the camera and line up all my friends for beautiful overcast-day portraits. They make me think, think, think. My thoughts get all philosophical and soft-focus. I want to get out my red trenchcoat and my yellow umbrella and be like Mary Tyler Moore. Lord knows I already have her hair... And from this list, I will say I'm guilty of #'s 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 11, 16, 17, 21, 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 16, 21, 22, 23, 24, and 25. Thank you very much. |
