So. . .I'm back in NYC tomorrow to see the Brian Jonestown Massacre, and I'm going to be staying in a hotel in the East Village. . .very excited.
How excited am I? I fell asleep for about an hour and a half this evening around 8pm. It has been such a long work week that I'm just drained. . .I can't believe that it's only 11:30! I feel like it's the middle of the night. Just want to get to the city. I think I might try to check out a poetry reading while I'm in town--maybe do an open mic or something. Probably hit the Strand to see my pal Bibbi. Should be fun. . .
Started to really work on my MA thesis today--drafting 2-4 new poems a week. Hopefully from this demoing phase, I can get a couple good pieces to build a chapbook around.
Sleep now. . .BJM tommorrow. . .
today's soundtrack:
teenage fanclub-bandwagonesque; ray lamontange-trouble; the la's-s/t; prince-hits 2; tom waits-closing time; jeff buckley-live at sin-e; nick drake-time of no reply; love-forever changes; toad the wet sprockett-fear; otis redding-good to me; ted hawkins-the next 100 years; husker du-candy apple grey

Hey... let me know what your hotel is like. I usually set up apartment rentals, but they are quite a bit of work. And the East Village is choice. So, so jealous! (I took note of your music list, and funny that you mention Bandwagonesque... the first cover song I ever played live with a band was "Is This Music" for Gr. 12 Battle of the Bands in highschool!)
Quality time with Bibbi is requested August 26th. Last Poets at BPC. I'll hold your room request.
