ok, to counteract the incredibly dreary and rainy weekend we've been having here in Chicago - here's a beautiful, memory-stirring video for "Weekend", from the new Sea and Cake record Car Alarm.

Remember when your bike and your friends was really all you needed? enjoy...

watch out for those Micro Black Holes..

hee hee

if you hand me my cape and my dog-headed cane
don't mind the rain, we gotta go downtown



bulletin board says it starts today
clear space and an open way

so get me my coat and we'll go down



i know you're just a kid
doesn't matter what you did up 'til now

get me my coat and we'll go down



i say it's gonna be like a big live tv
but don't believe the things you don't see
don't believe me

i know there won't be anyone asking why we're there
we don't need no tickets
everyone will just let us stare



they made their choices just like me
and there's things they won't have to see
we can just sit and breathe with the trees



i say their thoughts are flashing and quick
but they move so slow cuz their minds are so thick
and if we want we can punch into their heads
feel the wheels moving, we know they'll go on perpetually

so bring me my coat and we'll go down



go sit in the square where the prisons used to be
just sit around

get our balance in this new gravity



you won't have to be some useless kid
the only choices so bleak, twisted all upside down

so get me my coat little sister and i'll bring the car around

laying back, off my face - time stretching out in front of me - soaking in languid druggy slide guitar


c'mon baby, let's go downtown

woah. ok, good friends and good beer can lead to late night incoherence.

3:35 in to "Golden Age of Leather" by BOC.

that's where i'm at.

there's more cold bottles in the fridge, too

*uncertain*

i... came here willingly / and i... will go down valiantly

out of town, out of my head, out of the loop. truth is, my nose has been deep in some books too, which has been nice.

haven't had much energy for online lifestyle maintenance. i'll be back up to speed soon enough. i hope you all are well. hope the weekend treats you right.

i think i'm going to go get a cold beer from the wide variety that is in my refrigerator.

i leave you with - Suicide Video Outtakes



so... on the flipside, yo!

helloooooo

yep, still drowning

i'm fucking sick of caving in. not sure where all my frustration is getting funneled, honestly.

i'll smile and wash it away though, no worries. haha.

just turn the music up, it drowns real life out
