Home again, from my West Coast traverse. I was fortunate enough to have lunch in Eugene with Tony Robinson (you've seen the picture, I'm sure), who seems like a great guy and I wish I could have spent more time hanging out. Then on to Ashland, where I spent the afternoon and evening with Kasey and we had a great great time. Left Ashland at 5 am on Saturday to see Brighton in Marin and we spent the weekend having a blast. He's going to be a professional skateboarder by the age of 10 and you can bank on that. He's also very curious about girls flirting with him. He'll be 7 in February. Then to meet up with Tanya Brolaski, Stephanie Young, Cynthia Sailers, Dan Fisher and Kathleen Miller for dinner in Berkeley, then we went upstairs to Tanya's where LRSN and Elka Weber joined us for a lovely evening of drinking and smelling pizza vents.

The new, eponymous, Broken Social Scene album has arrived and I haven't stopped listening to it except to sleep and to work on my own music. Compared to their last, and phenomenal album, You Forgot It In People, BSS is more seamless and expansive, almost as if it's one hour-long song. It is a busy record, there are always too many instruments and ambient sounds to count but this isn't a bad thing. I'd suggest giving it a good listen.

NEWSFLASH!

Friendster has made it possible to see who's looking at you. Is this the end of anonymous stalking? Perhaps so.

Friday

Stephanie Young's. Me. Kate Colby. Reading from new work. Followed by much liquid.

"My vocabulary did this to me" has never sounded more apropriate to me than it does at this very moment.

Just an hour ago I was sitting on a sand dune, amid innumerable varieties of desert wildflower, watching a two inch long beetle trudge along. Even the wastelands can be gorgeous. There are pictures and I'll put them up soon.
