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.

i feel like i should preface this with something to the effect of 'man i have no idea exactly why i picked these songs h-haha'. they may be totally off-base but it's what came to mind looking down my music.

josh ritter - open doors
Do open windows keep the rain away?/Do open eyes keep the ghosts at bay?/I thought an open door would bring you in/Now I guess I'm gonna have to guess again

ani difranco - knuckle down
'Cuz somewhere between Hollywood and its pretty happiness/And an anguish so infinite it's anybody's guess/Is a place where people are all teachers/And this just one long class

matthew good - workers sing a song of mass production
she always used to say/life's a dirty business/so just be a prick and do it while/the world's awake

the weepies - slow pony home
I can remember when I first saw you
You said in my photograph I looked more far away/I laughed and smiled/and didn't say "I am a bit afraid to be here."


miyavi - ashita tenki ni naare
Yume wa yume no mama/dakara yume nan da yo/nante sabishii koto iu na yo. (Dreams are as dreams are/Therefore, they're dreams/but don't say such lonesome things!)

Now that I have a computer I can download things to again, thank you!
