In true blog style

What my day was like, in detail.

Woke up at 11:00 with my big headphones still around my neck
and my ipod out of charge. I guess my late nap turned into a good nights sleep.
Strange feeling to have a day to myself after being out
every weekend for the past month.
Got to work making a playlist for a drive to new york city tomorrow,
pretty different from what i usually listen to but i like the change.

Ripped Knees - No Age
Clash City Rockers - The Clash
Teenage Lobotomy - The Ramones
Lowdown - Wire
Hurt - New Order

Just an excerpt.
Then went out to dinner at a Mexican place with family.
i re-re-re-read this poem:

A Strange New Cottage in Berkeley

All afternoon cutting bramble blackberries off a tottering brown
fence
under a low branch with its rotten old apricots miscellaneous under
the leaves,
fixing the drip in the intricate gut machinery of a new toilet;
found a good coffeepot in the vines by the porch, rolled a big tire out
of the scarlet bushes, hid my marijuana;
wet the flowers, playing the sunlit water each to each, returning for
godly extra drops for the stringbeans and daisies;
three times walked round the grass and sighed absently:
my reward, when the garden fed me its plums from the form of a
small tree in the corner,
an angel thoughtful of my stomach, and my dry and lovelorn tongue.
-Allen Ginsberg

As for my mood, i feel kind of like a five year old boy.
I want to scream and play trucks and run around knocking things over,
in boredom and happiness.
