Funny thing I overheard on BART from a guy talking into cell phone: "The position that needs filling is boyfriend, so if that's a position you don't feel suited for, I guess you shouldn't be applying."
There were a lot of things I regretted about going to New Zealand. One of the main ones was not buying the Shocking Pinks' Infinity Land cd while I was there. I haven't seen it available anywhere else. Until now. God bless the internets. The disc is the best thing Flying Nun has put out in years -- it's very NZ, noisy and moody and rocking, but now they've got some DFA stuff out so they're embracing the electronic too.
I also love the new Lodger album. British band, disc out on Slumberland Records, which hadn't released anything in ages. (Yay, Mike!) They're like a kindler, gentler Wedding Present. Oh so many hooks. Makes you want to curl up into a papa san chair and drink tea with whiskey in it and maybe think about some girl you had a crush on in freshman year of college and never dared talk to.
Also, this: The Balkan dance party at the Rickshaw featured sex and stage diving and a guy taking drags on a cig between vomit launches.
And this: Physical attraction can't overrule emotional incompatibility.
