The Past Three Weeks

I turned 22, missed a credit card payment, rearranged my room, kissed someone pretty, helped my brother write his college essay, woken up some mornings with new numbers in my telephone and text messages from newly proclaimed "bffs," got kicked out of a bar, rediscovered the Mountain Goats and oh my god, it's all so good. All of it.

My last first day of school is next week. I can't wait.

Adventures in Solitude

According to iTunes, the first song I listened to in 2008 was "Adventures in Solitude" by the New Pornographers. I also remember playing it on my phone on a roof at a New Year's party while smoking a cigarette with some friends, sometime after midnight. I wonder if that means something or not.

[I'd post the song for you, but you really ought to just get the whole album. It really is that good.]
