The neighborhood pizza joint - Cappy's - is all lit up. I like it.

RESTORATIONS - "Neighborhood Song"

In a town where the kids try their best to sound just like their parents
The parents can’t help but sound just like their kids
He says “Man, you don’t know me”
With a long late-morning stare
He says “I want you to know that you do not know”
I let it sink in
How I’m sinking
Unbound leaves in a black drawer
Dusty snow under a flickering light
All that white noise over the things we have catalogued
Will you free me from the days where this panic tears at my soul
Free me from the days where I don’t know my home
The song of the neighborhood
Sung like the song of the world

This is a non-native anole - super natural camouflage for blending in with concrete.

DILLINGER FOUR - "Super Powers Enable Me to Blend in With Machinery"

It's all wrinkled elbow shirts and poker faces on this bus
Back to a nitch dug just like a ditch in this city's weathered crust
but there's something about this city's gray
that seems to say all there is to say
Riddled with regiment, vindictive intent
Faking loyalty and getting paid
Fuck them all
She keeps the variety section and then gives the rest to me
She says she remembers when buses were nicer
"There's no dignity in plastic seats"
But there's something about the way she said
"The only good boss is one that's dead"
These broad shoulders giggled all over the bus
And work ethics crumbled into "them and us"
Fuck them all
And all these specters of the work place
Turned from effigy into reality
And yeah I wish it was that simple
To think a belly laugh is really all we need
But it's the slow decay of the day to day
That says take your pay check, accept your place and fade away
but there was dignity in plastic seats that day

I'm enjoying my tiny projector - aka projecteo - but already need new wheels.

DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE - "Tiny Vessels"

This is the moment that you know
That you told her that you loved her but you don't
You touch her skin and then you think
That she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me
Yeah, she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me

I spent two weeks in Silverlake
The California sun cascading down my face
There was a girl with light brown streaks
And she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me
Yeah she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me

Wanted to believe in all the words that I was speaking
As we moved together in the dark
And all the friends that i was telling
All the playful misspellings
And every bite I gave you left a mark

And tiny vessels oozed into your neck
And formed the bruises
That you said you didn't want to fade
But they did and so did I that day

All I see are dark grey clouds
In the distance moving closer with every hour
So when you'd ask "Is something wrong?"
I'd think "You're damn right there is."
But we can't talk about it now
No, we can't talk about it now

So one last touch and then you'll go
And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile, and it was cheap
And you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
Yeah you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me [x2]

My favorite bug lamp!

ALL - "Hey Bug"

Hey bug, are you tryin' to go to sleep?
Windows slam up, people slam up, radio slam up,
Are you tryin' to go to sleep?

Ajde & Indy had an excellent record shopping experience today at Microgroove - the 10" and 7' collections were are their browsing level!

GOOD CLEAN FUN - "Shopping For A Crew"

You've always got your eye out for a place that you can hang
You're always on the lookout for a group to call a gang
Because the world is such a better place when people have your back
A crew can really make up for the things in life you lack

To face the world alone, you cannot bear it
If the varsity jacket fits, then I say wear it
Because if you hear the call, then you're better of at the mall
Shopping for your wolfpack
It's like they say: Now a baby got back

Since you were young you always wished you had a cool nickname
Just like those guys in Project X you're longing for the same
You know when you have picked your crew your friends will help you out
What better way to find out just what "cool" is all about?

Awesome day in the pool with this turtle.

LEMURIA - "Who Could Understand A Turtle?"

I'm in the other car
Riding impatiently in the back seat
You're in the turtle-top caravan
Somewhere in this traffic jam
I know I hurt your feelings
And I can't find you, navigating
We'll never share our private skin
But I can't imagine never sharing our songs again
We'll be to Dekalb soon
And I'll let you know how much I love you
I want to let you know how your hits feel to my strum
How you're the cookie, and I'm the crumb
