Maybe I should just stop trying to be "productive" for the day. My brain is going in a million different directions, none of them work related. Actually, today has been quite productive. Just look at my new buttons on the right nav! I've been quite the busy bee.
VVB just called me from the Yale Spring Fling, where the Shins are playing. She got some Yalies to sneak her in as a guest. She held out her cell phone for the entire duration of "New Slang". We have the moronic habit of calling one another during shows and providing a live digital feed until our batteries run out. My phone is yelping its low-juice tone repeatedly, and she says, "If I call back, that means I'm meeting somebody famous." Last time she called me post-show, she was hanging out with Ray Lamontaigne.
We started this silly ritual years ago when I was in Boston and missing Mighty Purple shows at BAR and she'd sit in the front and hold out a cell phone.
I miss New Haven today. And not just cause the Shins are playing.
I have to go sell my car now.
