david byrne seems like he would be fun to hang out with. apparently he was in houston last month to play jones hall, and then went for a bike ride in the heat, bless his heart. his blog entry on the experience is pretty interesting. actually, i just like that he uses the term 'shotgun shack' in real life.

it was inevitable

i am now the owner of a pair of cowboy boots. they are eel-skin and cowhide, and approved by buck. (he is a connoisseur of boots, as a name like buck would imply.) and to be honest, a tiny bit of their appeal is knowing i could be wearing either flotsam or jetsam from the little mermaid. because they scared the crap out of me when i was young.

this week's song on repeat is naked girl by the velvet teen. besides the fact that it is excellent to listen to while driving, i like that there's a point about 30 seconds into the vocal where you think, "huh. that's a dude."

oh, sigh. i could stay up there forever. sipping brooklyn lager.. people watching.. breathing, not drinking, the air.. the whole trip was amazing.


stayed out til 5. went to a bar in the village that is only accessible by walking through a dirty chinese restaurant to an unmarked door. wandered barneys. contemplated a pair of lanvin heels. (they were on sale.) stayed at the waldorf-astoria(!!!)

still sighing. oh i miss it.
