"...don't stop crying / you'll flood the streets / we'll take our boats out / just you and me..."

I've unearthed my old love of Noe Venable. Her voice is so fucking beautiful and her lyrics fantastically haunting. And it's nice to be able to sing along with someone you can harmonize with. :XD

My favorite song lately has been "Anna Lisa." It's a hidden track after "In Memoriam" (of which the best line is "When she takes out her trusty switchblade, Maddy can bring enormous men to their knees.") "Anna Lisa" goes as thus:

oh anna lisa
who are you now?
somebody's pisspot or somebody's crown
you throw up your hands and let destiny steer
oh anna lisa
how long has it been
since I crawled out of your
generous dream
waking up early with drums in my ears

anna lisa
anna lisa

so anna lisa
I decided I'd go
and that if I came back
I'd have something to show
and we'd laugh at the people who're laughing at you

anna lisa
anna lisa
none of it came true

oh anna lisa
your sex and your spark
winter companions that glow in the dark
there's love in the way that you held out on me
but though anna lisa
I'd love to believe
in the cheap magic tricks from your cavernous sleeves
I'm not at all what you thought I would be...

anna lisa
anna lisa
none of it came true

Check her out. She's fucking fantastic.

SO! ...About that caramel (I just about typed camel) parfait with oreos I just wolfed down (THANK YOU SHAWN!!!)... Sugar + $5 show in Lexington + fantastic fucking hilarious friends + my digital camera = stupid fucking goodness. I'm SO stoked.

OH! I went to my first hockey game last night. It was fun, but I was kind of uncomfortable at times, as I didn't know the rules OR the players (as everyone I was with did). That's what I get for being an asshole social recluse for 2 years.

I CAN'T SIT STILL! *darts out of comp room*
