p.s.

If you are ever bored or lonely:

Go to LACMA and visit the Phantom Sightings: Art after the Chicano Movement (visible through September 1, 2008). Absolutely fantastic. Great day with Ashley. Walked to the museum, 80 degrees and gorgeous. Took care of some school business and then explored. Came upon the exhibit and was just completely blown away. Ate at the cafeteria where I paid  $3.25 for an apple flavored organic soda, BUT, I didn't even mind. Art has a funny way of making you appreciate things that are really important while gaining the ability to ignore those things that really do end up a bit more trivial.

**Listen to the Pela album Anytown Graffiti. 

Really loud, through headphones.

Also hear:

Earlimart - Mentor, Tormentor

Lightspeed Champion - Falling Off the Lavender Bridge

Cloud Cult - Feel Good Ghosts

The National - anything...

She & Him - Volume One (Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward's collaboration act. Surprisingly brilliant. But didn't we all know she could sing since the shower scene in Elf)?

Then:

Plan out your summer shows here

(And tell me what you're seeing)
