1:30 a.m.

krista donated these questions from dave (of bald sarcasm) to me:

who?
me, jacinda, sam and erik.

when?
1998. summer. sometimes it's shocking how long ago these things happened, even though they feel like they happened just the other day.

why?
i was in love with erik, so i had to be there. jacinda and i were inseparable, so therefore, she had to be there. erik and sam were always there, i think. this was just something we did in the evenings, and i'd always go home confused.

what?
oh, anything. sitting in sam's garage/room/shanty on the edge of his parents' property. listening to music. smoking too much. talking about what ginsberg meant. staring at each other. being bizarre and young and cryptic and thinking this was the only way to be. watching boys drink gin. waiting for boys to finish making ramen noodles. listening to the longest song in the universe. laughing. "maybe we should tape a bunch of thick phone books to our bodies and fight each other with samurai swords until we get to the yellow pages..." weirdness. tension. guitar picks. steve albini.

the most perfect way to spend a saturday night.
