They searched the cellars Fruitlessly.
top eight things to happen in the past week and a half:
galloping on a horse on the beach in half moon bay late yesterday afternoon during freakish hot spell (95 degrees!) while listening to pj harvey on my iPod. i don't think life has many moments as fine as this.
dancing on beach/in water in pacifica, somewhat drunk, at midnight or thereabouts, during freakish hot spell (still warm at night! unbelievable! the water didn't feel too cold to get my feet wet! unheard of!), while listening to interpol on my iPod. (are you noticing an iPod theme?)
having one of my oldest friends, tom, come to town with one of my favorite bands, yo la tengo, for three days, and getting to not only hang out with tom lots, but also see all three shows they played at the fillmore, and hang out backstage, and pretend i'm one of those cool kids for a few days.
having my old college friend, sasha - who i hadn't seen in seven or eight years - also come into town (while tom was here!) and getting drunk with him and tom during and after first yo la tengo show. (sasha used to be so straight-edge! ha!)
heckling ira from yo la tengo backstage in their dressing room before he did a station id for me, telling him that a friend and i had decided that he needed to wear a lab coat during his 'mad professor' portion of the show, when he starts playing the keyboards with his nose and/or hair. also, mentioned beeker wig might be appropriate.
working the lou reed show and being bored to tears by it, but then having my neighbor call to tell me he'd just finished having dinner with paul van dyk and did i want to go see him spin at 1015 later that evening, for free, and in the vip section. which of course i did. stood behind paul and watched him actually put the records on, until i moved and got the owner of the club to fetch me free drinks. i'm a spoiled brat.
my friend amelia's going away party: we took over the casanova, one of my favorite bars (not just because i dj there!), had lots of friends show up, and had a wonderful time. but why's she gotta move??
sitting in a really nice hot tub with good friends until the wee hours. i love a hot tub. i wish i had one of my own!
damn, i live a hard life.
