"Him Don't Do No Rithmetic..."
Today I'm cat-sitting at Dibs' house. You know the part in Joseph Keckler's "Cat Lady," where his sad Aunt Carol wants to adopt the sad cat Mrs. Gummage because two sad old ladies would make each other happy, "the way two wrongs make a right"? This arrangement feels a lot like that. Rose and I are soul sisters. Spritely and playful, but with an underlying intensity that can be upsetting and tedious. Check us out.
Anyway, I'm getting lots of work done here. Dibs' kitchen is sunny and yellow, with billowing curtains and two buckets of kombucha.
I'm thinking today about:
-posture
-the difference / lack of difference between love and loneliness
-dreams, the realization of dreams, and the new dreams that come after the old dreams are realized
-imitations, voices and possession
-astrology, and how it is real
-anti-folk albums, 2002-2005
-life, and how much is hopefully left, and how little i can imagine it, and how petrifying that is
-how I've never seen "The Women," and how I will, tomorrow, with Cole, before MY SHOW AT SIDEWALK AT 8pm.
I think Rose gets upset when I practice guitar, but I need to run through some more songs.
Love
Dan
