Get me
outta here
somewhere, anywhere

there's gotta be something
happening in the world somewhere
the grass is always greener
somewhere over there
this town's too small
people here too square
I wanna find some place
where I can really let down my hair.
-The Gories 'Outta Here'



And with that, I booked my tickets to see The Gories and The Oblivions in Memphis in June.

This will require leaving work and hitting the road directly, for the fifteen hour, one-thousand plus mile journey. Can't decide if I want to book a nice hotel room online or settle for a motel upon arrival. I'll barely be there long enough for a shave, a shower, and a nap before I'll be back on the road Sunday afternoon/morning, first to Graceland, then back onto the road to hopefully arrive at home in the wee hours and sleep before work on Monday.

Remember, Chris Sick brings the party wherever he goes..


Bachelors know all about parties. In fact, a good bachelor is a living, breathing party all by himself. At least that is what my girlfriend said when she found the gin bottles under the couch. I believe her exact words were, "You're a disgusting, drunken mess." And that's a good description of a party, if it's done right.

I liked Tree of Smoke, but I didn't love it the way i love Jesus' Son. It might be too much, if you know what I mean. That sort of writing needs the tightness that a short story or novella can handle. It's maybe too ambitious. Not to say that there isn't more really, really great writing than I find in many other novels. Recommended reading, for sure.

I recently read Resuscitation of A Hanged Man by Johnson. That is a weird book.

Fuck, I love Memphis.

Thank you.

Have you been in contact with B----- since everything happened? I don't mean to pry into your relationship; I just hope that she is doing well.

Thanks.

Funny I'm at all in any mood for cheesesteaks since I've been back. Could care less. And I'm starting to care less than that for the dating attempts. Big whatever.

Either the Yuppie Scum group dropped its standards considerably, or a certain someone is there under false pretences. biggrin

yeah, it's nice to see important world events getting so much coverage. kinda distracting from the other important world events happening right now, though!
