little wing

And speaking of birds, here's a fantastic book 4u2 check out:/CROWS-ENCOUNTERS WITH THE WISE GUYS by Candace Savage. Good illustrations and photos. One of the illustrations shows 2 crows wearing crowns and i saw that 'crown' is 'crow' with an N added.
Happy New Year dear readers.

oh u beautiful doll u great big beautiful doll

And speaking of beautiful dolls, i have 2 words 4u: Brit Marling. U gotta see ANOTHER EARTH. She co-wrote and stars. I didnt link to trailer because it gives away too much. Dont watch it! Just watch the movie. (Please).

long live the captain

..."thirty years away can make a seaman's eyes
a roundhouse man's eyes flow out water, salt water."
Been kind of obsessing about Sinead the last few days. I've always held a place 4 her in my heart (Oh. Is THAT where it is? -Ed.) ever since she sang Nothing Compares. Such a physical singer, u get the feeling u r inside her throat, or like u have x-ray vision of her throat. The sound that comes out is just plain gorgeous. So she's a little kooky, so what?

skunk in the middle of the uh, water

Just hanging around the boat listening to Tom Petty. What a fantastic and beautiful band they are. So sophisticated in their arrangements and playing. Maybe my next cover should be FACE IN THE CROWD?
And speaking of crowds, i'm looking 4ward to attending the upcoming Gaultier exhibit. And speaking of Gaultier, i wonder if Pinky would like these JPG jeans?
And speaking of jeans, i'm ditching my stretch jeans in favor of original 501s, Bruce Anderson-style. He inspired me yesterday, he was looking so cool in his. And speaking of cool guys, this guy looks pretty good in his non-stretch jeans too.
It's almost New Year's Eve, y'all ready to get your party on?

bruce anderson in the house(boat)... again

Bruce is downstairs right now playing lead on FLOPDOODLE, one of the songs in the project he and R have got going on. And i am smiling.
Today's session didnt start that way for me tho. The first song they worked on, a cover of AND I LOVE HER, made me cry.
Oh oh, lunchtime, i gotta go pick up salmon sammiches and bring them back to the boat.  More later.

let there be portholes

Last night i couldnt sleep but R was sawing logs. I whispered ever so lightly and softly, not even directly into his ear, "You are the best." From deep in his sleep he said "What? Do i have a valium?"
That's when i started laughing almost uncontrollably, and still asleep, he said "Just trying to help."

breathless

Hello. One of the things i'm sad about lately is bad air quality, which around here is mostly due to wood-burning in fireplaces. It's too late to reverse, people. Pathetically, the game is over.

The other night R had a dream that he was trying to cut and paste his dreams. And yesterday, reading the paper version of the New Yorker, i looked up to the top of the page to see what time it was.
Anyway, folks sure be lovin' their Chrishmish, eh?

...back in 1979-ish that this song would have such a long and interesting life?
Go guys, u r still the bomb.
And speaking of who knew, how did this slip past me? Wow.
Wtf i been doin' anyways?
Bought 150 pounds of bricks to put in the downstairs of the boat in an effort to balance things out. We got the idea from our neighbors, except they use 50 years worth of National Geographics in their hull as ballast. Their boat is v. cool, kind of like an Eichler house.
Well, folks sure be lovin' their Chrishmish, eh?
