Living with the living.

Now that I'm ready to make my return, certain mundane necessities have resurfaced. Namely, I've resumed looking at jobs and potential places to live (but at the very least a place for band practice besides my family's basement). I found a gorgeous and inexpensive 4-bedroom house and I'd love to get some housemates for it, but I don't feel certain I can sort that out fast enough. As for jobs, I began my search at the library where, according to the job listing, "There may be some exposure to angry or hostile individuals." Amazing.

In other non-news, my phone broke when I fell on it the other night. I can still take and make calls and hear when people text message me, but that's it. I can't know who I'm talking to until the other person talks, read received texts or send 'em, etc. At first this seemed like it could be fun, but listening to the familiar chime of an incoming message is becoming torturous.

All that aside:
+ the Chris Walla record is beautiful
+ the video for "Sing Again" is adorable
+ I have strawberry Pez.
+ I've been writing some songs that I actually like.

i've heard of a few places that are looking for housemates in feb/march. and at least one of them had a dedicated band/practice space. if you want, i can look those up for you, or you could send something to seattlediy and they'll repost your info.

the video for sing again makes my heart swell. but what the hell is with lomd not being in it?!

Ooooh! That might be rad. I may try to stay home until I'm through with beauty school, but it's definitely worth a look.

As for the Sing Again video, my mom's response after she got over how cute it was to see Jack and Erica in it was, "There are no Asian people. I'm writing to him about how he discriminates against people of color." To which I replied, "But...Chris Walla is pale, mom."
