Which Concerns a Number of Small Things.
I've been using a generic-brand detangler that comes in a plain white bottle, decorated solely with black text. After many showers, the bottle has begun to lose its letters. An R will go sliding gracefully down its curved side, or I'll find an E plastered across my thumbnail. It's so surreal, and I can't even figure out exactly why. Is it that I'm watching two-dimensional animation on a three-dimensional surface? Or is it that I'm interacting with the text in a way that none of my English courses ever even suggested?
Have I fallen off the ABC-2006 bandwagon? No! Well, maybe. What letter is it again?
LJ friends, I'm sorry that LiveJournal and Blogger can't seem to play nice together. I would fix it if I knew how.
Here is a song I recorded at Piri's house on Labor Day. It is a smallish MP3 file, featuring a toy melodica with rather reluctant reeds.
Arrowwood - Trees with Sweaters
On the drive home from Bumbershoot (incidentally, anything by Yonder Mountain String Band is an ideal soundtrack for road trips through western Washington), I passed one of those annoying video signboards. You know the kind I mean. This one appeared to be advertising a nearby casino. As I passed, the phrase $10,000 CRAPS! was flashing over and over.
I'll let you write your own punchline.

I like the song. Makes me think of being outside. Did you sing the vocals?
Such a sweet air.
Hey, I recognize the teeth marks on the Triola!
Thank you both. I did sing the la-la-las. And I got the Triola image from e-bay -- ours is much less chewed and scuffed!
Oh, L. I loved the music. So fresh and simple. The lines were delightful. Thank you for sharing.
have you read/seen the phantom tollbooth? maybe your shampoo is from the land of azaz?
