Heather and her little horse, Scarlett. Scarlett turned out to be kind of obnoxious, but in a very subtle, slacker kind of way. She LOOKED sweet, but as is so often the case, this his a heart of mischeif. Katie took us horseback riding through the hills of North Charlotte. She’d apparently had a list…

Then we found this version of Cars’ Tow Mater – apparently set up for a kids’ birthday party. Oh and just in case Disney runs across my website and wants to track this guy down for copyright infringement or some other bullshit, we went back the next day and he WASN’T THERE!!! Sunday, Sara and…

It’s been a discouraging two days. Last night, the bar was noisy and overblown. Overgrown with people evidently on their millionth beer eyeing the short skirts walking past. I’m fairly cynical about the bars we play, and the people in them. The culture horrifies me. I was a greater part of it in Annapolis, constantly…

I’m staying inside the house. I’d Love to say that that’s because it’s summer and it’s hot outside and we’re in Charlotte, NC. I’d Love to say it’s because we’ve got Legend on DVD and I’d rather sit and watch Tom Cruise get covered in glitter. Hell… I’d rather say I got in trouble with the…

It’s strange how unpurposefully you end up at the same rest stops over and over again, stopping for gas at the same places. I guess if you’re travelling the same routes and you prefer Wendy’s over McDonalds, that’s just going to fall into place that way, but it was funny pulling off at a pretty…

Nightmares. I’ve spent the last couple of days upsetting my sleep schedule in grand fashion. That’s been a dream – a good kind. All day Saturday was spent with music and good musicians and beautiful people and spectacular storms. Yesterday was spent pursuing movies and an uninterrupted moment. There were flowers and tadpoles and grins. And ttoday…

Well, maybe not THAT much more – suffice it to say I had to get up at 5.30am to get out of Catonsville by 6am to get to Rowan’s by 7am to get equipment loaded by 7.30am to load in to the New Deal by 8am. Suffice it to say that I was crazy hyper all day…

I’m stunned with Life at the moment. Small bird-like, shivering and stunned like some Ani Difranco metaphor. Friday night Heather and I played a long, long night over at Jimmy O’Donnell’s in Baltimore. A last-minute gig, and one of the most exhausting venues in our repetoire. Normally we play for about two hours, maybe even…

Puppy at the CUP!!!! So sleeeepy! So cuuute! A Cuppy? Perhaps? No? I’m not sure of what to make of the day. It’s almost grey, but then sunshiney. It’s almost too hot, cloying, but then there’s relief. I’m being toyed with on a grand scale. But only with the weather. On other fronts, Life’s pretty…

Working towards something – I wonder if that’s an artificial concept induced by spending the first two decades of your Life in school. I know it can distort your head into constantly looking for some sort of external gold star or approval. Heather dressed properly for doing work with molds and resin casting. I don’t…
