I'm not gonna let this get me down.

More documentation of my 2200 mile journey from LA to Milwaukee - my friend Maxwell captures me and the mood, pre-driving, across the country.
If you can make out the graffiti, it says "Heavy".
Yep.
Sure was.
As Dylan says, you just gotta keep your hand on the plow.

Two hours of pushin' broom buys an eight by twelve four-bit room. I'm a man of means by no means. King of the road.

Finally back in New York after a wild journey that included driving a 22' Penske truck loaded up with all my belongings from LA to Milwaukee with my pops riding shotgun and trading off with me when I got tired.

And now I'm just in my office, getting caught up on work and finally starting to really feel this Bat For Lashes album, that at first, I really didn't care for but which currently has me under its' spell.

I Will Always Love You, My Friend, or, Experiments In Humor.

Roamed around for a little bit at lunchtime.
Had a bite to eat at Quartino, listened to the amazing new Bill Callahan album and stumbled over to visit Mr. Sperduti at Partners & Spade.

This Is A Golden Phone, Can You Ring Me Back?

I've been crazy about this track for what, over a year or so, now?

 


The promo for the album just ended up on my desk.
Super good.
Made me smile on a day in need of a smile.
