Sep 8, 2009I am digging this a lot.
That drummer’s ’stache is intense. INTENSE. Speaking of drummers with interesting hairz, remember Thor? My dad just showed me his book-thing the other day about his experiences with panic disorder slash manic depression. It’s pretty intense and… morbid at parts but, it’s really powerful. The whole thing is drawn by hand and scanned, I guess. My favorite drawing is of him as a skeleton in a tiny chair with the therapist. You gawta see it.
Anyway, the book – or at least this is how I interpreted it – is about really the same thing I think Ron Padgett was trying to get across in this poem, when he said And that’s the way I like it (which is also the inspiration for my sidebar about-thing). In other words,
Or in other other words, the book is cool and you should buy it (I would include an Amazon link or something but I can’t find it anywhere. It’s called A Sea of Despair and it’s on Domy Books, if you care to look). Tomorrow will be my first ever day of eighth grade, and I must say, I am pretty excited. Our school only goes up to Junior High so we’re at the “top of the chain” now, as one might put it. They also just changed EVERYTHANG about my class/our whole floor and it’s preeettyyy crazy (I got to see it today at the open house). In the morning I have to get up and take a cold shower because our house is broken and our hot water thing doesn’t work, sooo that might be a minus. But then I get to go show everyone my kitty binder so ’sall good.

HOPE THAT YOUR 1ST DAY OF 8TH GRADE ENLIGHTENMENT WENT WELL…
Tomorrow ,(yay!),first day of school in Spain,too.We´re very excited ,but ,thanks God,we have hot water for the shower,haha!
Good luck,sweetie,and have a nice day.
got a book title for “Thor”?
any plans to go to the Hideout Block Party?
What band is that and did you see that guitarists finger nails? And for a morbid book try Infernal Devices by Philip Reeve.
i’ve just got a kitty binder as well. it’s purple
maybe to become more intense, you should grow a mustache.
Lol, at my school when we have assemblies we sit in sections according to our grade, and when our principal says “how are you 8th grade?” we go wild -whoa I just typed ‘wilco’- cuz it’s our job to intimidate the little kids.
What is the band/song in that video? I really like it.
Jill, that would be The Dodo’s “Fables”. it’s being played RAMPANTLY on indie satellite radio these days. it is a good song.
