I think that the best mix tape anyone ever made for me was the one Iain Salazar sent me in 1996. Every song was perfect and almost every song introduced me to a band that I still love. Thanks Iain! You’ll never know how much you meant to me. The other day I downloaded a […]

I was going through a shoebox last night, looking at old postcards I’ve received, plane and train tickets, copies of my fanzine, and other artifacts. I came upon a ticket stub for the last show I attended at the Greek Theatre. Bizarrely, it was four years to the day from yesterday: August 10 2002. That […]

+ Boy am I glad our trip was last week and not this week. Looks like flying is about to get 1000 times shittier. Oh but I forgot, panicking is great for the economy!

When we got home, one of the first things I did was get one of my old big boxes down off the shelf in the closet. I wanted to ensure that I did indeed still have my flyer collection. And I do, whew. I have the flyer for my very first punk show, 1/17/92. I […]

So yesterday I went to Olympia. I lived there from ages 18-21, and it was fairly life-altering, as those ages inevitably are. I ran into several people I knew back then, and happily they all recognized me, though I look pretty different now. The whole visit made me happy. Except perhaps for the part where […]

This morning we are all going bowling. Whee! I will try not to injure myself. After that it’s on the boat and over to the city for exploring, first Thursday stuff, dinner, a possible rendezvous with josh bis. We shall see. Hotness.

We arrived in Seattle yesterday afternoon, met by warm weather and sunshine. We took the two-dollar express bus downtown from the airport, then walked down the steep hill that dips down into the Sound toward the ferry terminal. Crossed the broad and deep body of water — which is too large to be a bay, […]

It’s a beautiful breezy sunny day off here in the City. Ah. I rolled out of bed at 8 and fed the cats. Then I loafed around in my jammies for an hour, then got dressed and washed up so that Brian and I could walk down the street to Howard’s for the cheap breakfast. […]
