This is my new favorite song. It’s perfect.
The Cure “In Between Days” off of The Head on the Door
Well, this part is perfect. I got carried away.
“Yesterday I got so old
I felt like I could die
Yesterday I got so old
It made me want to cry
Go on go on
Just walk away
Go on go on
Your choice is made
Go on go on
And disappear
Go on go on
Away from here”

The Black Lips ”Dirty Hands” off of Let It Bloom.
After just being introduced to this song (and this album), I can’t stop listening to it! This song brings a few others to mind (the ‘chord progressions’ or something like that). It’s catchy, whimsical, and it has that old-school punk feel where if you yell/sing along to it, you feel really good.

The large photo was taken from Miranda July’s “Eleven Heavy Things” exhibit at the MOCA Pacific Design Center in LA. October 2011. Absolutely loved it, and her.
The Queers “Noodlebrain.”
Heartbreak is funny to everyone but the heartbroken. -Geoffrey Eugenides The Marriage Plot.
This Thanksgiving vacation didn’t exactly live up to all that I’d made it out to be. But I guess I’m thankful for the horrific series of events that have happened. It really takes something HUGE, something unexpected and resolute, to move on and not look back. Nonstop crying always ensures, but it’s heavy and relieving and it counters the physiological effects of grief, the “disturbance in the blood,” as Eugenides says. Thankfully I’ve had his book to keep me company. Somehow reading about heartbroken young lovers and relating to them makes everything about my situation kind of comical and romantic. Not as depressing and humiliating. And also thankful to my friend who introduced me to this song which is fantastic. This entire album, Love Songs for the Retarded couldn’t be more fitting. Things will get better right?
I don’t think it’s too hard to be happy. New 35 mm photos coming soon…
