Have you somehow managed to hack into my brain?? Just curious, because these have been almost my exact thoughts lately. The “it’s almost too good to last” feeling of happiness. It’s definitely a good place to be.

Euphoric
Summer’s here, and I’m checking out a little more each day, trading the observable world for some kind of Technicolor hyper-reality where everything pulses and sparks. I’ve lost touch with what’s expected of me and it doesn’t matter. All those unwritten social cues and nuances, the things holding the interpersonal framework in place—they’re bright scarves fluttering away from me in the wind. I let...

He hates New Orleans. (!!!)
He almost never leaves his house except to go to work or attend films/symphonies/plays by himself. (He is the character in Simon & Garfunkel’s “I Am An Island.”)
He’s in one of those unhealthy, co-dependent non-relationships out of convenience and freely admits that he’s using the girl and...
My friend Riki, whose partner Jeff works the political beat in the capitol, just called me and asked me if I’d read the paper today. I said I hadn’t, and she said, “They’re shutting down The Times-Picayune.”
Not exactly, but it will no longer be a daily. The emphasis will be on blogging instead of reporting. All the current employees have been invited to reapply for...

WatchI have been writing songs like a mofo lately. Here is one I wrote a few minutes ago. Krystal is responsible for the title (“Cross Out My Name”), the first line, and the general motivation behind it. And yes, I am getting really country. I need a band. Words:
On the Mississippi banks I let my long hair down
I was tired of all the old terrors pushing me round
And there was bourbon in my...
Why do all my songs come out bitter and sarcastic? I am not bitter and sarcastic, generally. I don’t even have anyone to direct the biting cynicism at anymore—I have to invent fictional people who have wronged me. Really need to expand my repertoire of emotional impeti. Okay, I guess when I write the quiet solemn songs they’re not all spiteful, but the rockers aaaaaalways are.

Joni Michell was not a strong personality. In many interviews I’ve read, she was very shy and unassuming. I think Taylor Swift for one would bring too much presence to the role, no? Two, there’s no way she could sing those songs and do it any justice
Definitely. In addition to the shyness thing, I just see...
