Went out to a bar with my brother and his girlfriend, pretending it was friday night in the face of the impending snowpocalypse or whatever may hit tomorrow. I actually have Thoughts about this, about my family and how they perceive me, and how that filters through my brother to me (he and his girlfriend have both said to me several times how compared with the impressions they get from my parents, i actually seem pretty normal and even cool. it's sort of an odd feeling, being told i'm 'cool' after so long being anything but). It still doesn't feel quite normal, hanging out with them and going to bars and such, but it's not bad, really.
That aside.
Say "FST me" in your comment, and I'll put together a mini-playlist (3-6 songs) of songs that remind me of you.

deb talan - tell your story walking
Tell it to the judge, man/Tell it to your motherless reflection/In a sock and one shoe/after the great defection/he said, "tell a lie sometimes, tell the truth/when it suits you, and when you've lost your way/tell a story."
