I'm not usually one for blatant romance, but this song really touches me.

listening to "Best Encore Ever: Burning Down The House - " on Blip

I gotta blip this for my friend, Oz. I still can't believe she got to perform with David Byrne. Talk about cool.

listening to "Spells - MIRACLES 11/24/07 at Death By Audio" on Blip

The audio sucks, but this song has been stuck on repeat for me lately. All the spells are broken, indeed.

listening to "Still Fighting It - Ben Folds" on Blip

Drew's starting middle school this year, and growing up entirely too fast. So this song makes me verklempt lately.

listening to "Days Are Numbers (The Traveller) - by Patita (blip.up) - The Alan Parsons Project" on

When I fell in love with this song at the ripe old age of 10 or so, I never thought it would be so self-identifying to me in adulthood.

me

listening to "Casimir Pulaski Day - Sufjan Stevens" on Blip

In remembrance of the holiday (and I'm a sucker for trumpets/banjos). This song always makes me verklempt. And he takes, and he takes, and he takes...

listening to "Lost Coastlines - Okkervil River" on Blip

This song reminds me of my father's funeral, especially the line "that light you love now just won't shine" and the feeling of being lost at sea.

A Return of Sorts...

I will most likely be returning to some form of blogging for a while as I continue to process my dad's death. For me, writing is my most cathartic outlet. I finally managed to write a poem around this. It's just a start and I'm sure there are many more to come. I hope, beyond being an emotional outlet for me, it is enjoyable on some level for you to read. Thanks.

Last Night, My Father Died

I am in shock. There is yesterday and there is everything after. The same is surreal, and the different is heartbreaking. My father is dead.

He would play Grateful Dead music all the time when I was in high school. I got sick of the constant hippie rock, but that was his thing. This one's for you, Dad.
