I am not a good companion for all day festivals or shows. My feet always hurt after not very much standing/walking, and it doesn't seem to matter what kind of shoes I wear! I thought maybe if I wore my new Simple sneakers, which I was so excited to get in the mail this week, to Silver Lake Jubilee, my feet would be ok. But they weren't. The shoes are very cute, and comfortable for awhile, but I guess I just have bad feet. Maybe I can get a wheelchair for the next summer fun event, and some sympathy from strangers.

Things I found:
old blue notebook Meg and I wrote in together in Baltimore one summer containing many illegible poems within - was I stumbling around the monument at night when I wrote them?
bag full of letters from Danit
Chachi chihuahua coin purse
picture of Marisa setting type at CCS
five old bikinis
Sanrio bonus cards from Ventura, Salinas, Corpus Christi, San Francisco
Under Achievers Please Try Harder poster

My ipod shuffle just found Saint Etienne, reminds me of lazy pen pals in tiny sweaters.

yes!

Finally, someone has posted a video of Camera Obscura singing my favorite song from their new album. I have a video from when I saw them play it at Emo's in Austin, but this is better.



(It makes me want to cut my hair, too.)

Um hellooo,

why am I not on the list of women chosen to serve on a submarine??
