In Ann Arbor.
Travel went very smooth.
It's 9:00am and I'm waiting for everyone to wake up.
Although I did just take a medium-length walk around the neighborhood - i walked the route I used to do when I delivered newspapers in my pre-teens!
The trees here are gorgeously colored right now - I think I will go out again later with my camera.

There's a humongous UofM football game here today so i can't leave the house by car until at least noon.
The airplanes flying around the stadium which is a couple of blocks from the house is what woke me up this morning. That and my body is aching something awful!
I think it's a combination of dehydration and rocking out leftovers.
I had already strained my neck by the end of the first song at the Pumpkins show the other night.
Eric said i looked really really funny and almost asked me for the camera cause i was trying to rock out without moving my neck at the show.

DOH.
Ah, the beauty of age.

I should write about the show but i can't yet for some reason - can't gather my thoughts.
It was a queer ass show.
Really fucked up.
Not in an entirely good way too.
And the sound was HORRIBLE - which is part of my problem for gathering my thoughts - trying to separate the show from the god awful sound. It should be made illegal in this day and age to get away with that. It sounded like i was at a basketball arena show but it was in a theatre. Gross.

OK, people are starting to wake up.
Time to start the day.

just talking to me friend Matthew.
we were talking about my party plans for NY (and the night before I leave here in Wisconsin)
and, well, he's a veteran of all things all night
and
then he laid this line on me,
which quite possibly could be the quote of the year:

"you know, if you're going to keep up your 20-something image you're going to have to work it"

shnaaaap.
