back in chi-town...longing for seattle...

serene performing @ the blackbird in portland, OR

...uhm yeah. i'm back in town. but i'm busy as hell. and not motivated to do anything about it. here's what i'd rather be doing...drink john's vodka lemonade @ flowers w/ jesse & ryan & megan...be a barfly with the regulars for an afternoon @ the knarr...

taken while swinging in ryan's backyard

...watch serene pretend to be a eurodance outfit...watch laurel and matt dance dirty @ the shoboat...witness erik do his O-face while playing the bass...come under the spell of jesse's drumming...sing along to ryan as he plays beggars of the sea...stand by like a school girl as chris simpson of the gloria record chats w/ ryan or jesse...

andy, eric and greg of hidari mae performing dissension

...watch an underaged kid stand in the rain moved to tears as he sees and hears the gloria record live for the first time from outside the bar...have greg of hidari mae tell me what my first tattoo should be (pink duck on my forehead)...joke with denison about nintendo boy... swing in ryan's backyard waiting for the somber redheaded giant to awaken from his slumber...

serene outside the shoboat before the eurodance gig

...hear andy sing dissension live...hear the gloria record perform tracks 1-6 of start here live...sit with ryan at a sports bar/casino in federal way talking about relationships while security guards take care of a "situation" behind us...stay up til 6am w/ jesse & ryan watching a movie after driving all night from portland...fall off the top bunk in ryan's sister's room cuz i can't find the frickin' ladder while still groggy with sleep...wait, scratch that one...that really hurt...

jesse sprinkle gazing up at a spectacular display of the firmaments

...listen to deni play my song for me and megan... shoot photos of a very goofy serene outside the shoboat in tacoma...drive behind jesse's demon hunter soccer mom minivan...gaze up at a spectacular late afternoon sky outside johnny rockets with jesse...take photos of mirabelle making goofy little girl faces...

...i don't know when i'll be in seattle again...i didn't get to see ian but i'll see him december 6th @ schubas...jesse said he hopes to find some excuse to come out to chicago...i wish they'd do a midwest tour this winter...i miss long talks with ryan and long hugs from jesse...
