I realize now I'm meant to live good stories.
All I’ve ever been striving for is a really good story. I live my life and make my decisions based off my ability to remember the things I’ve done. I want my life to be something interesting enough to be documented, written down, remembered. Isn’t that all anyone wants? Enough good stories to feel like they really lived?

I'm melting.
It might be this music.
It might be this shirt.
It might be these photographs.
It could be all these things.

Tonight I’m writing music with my band at real rehearsal. What? I have a band? I don’t even know what this thing is that is my life anymore, but I like it.
More melodica, more singing out and more tamborine. [Please].
Stay Tuned and keep your Monday nights open toward the end of July/early August.

You brought me a dozen white balloons.
I’m still not sure why, but my G-d I hope that look on your face was real: so humble and sincere. Your face told me clearly that your only goal was to make me smile, to bring me joy for even one moment.
