Vespertine


it's not meant to be a strife
it's not meant to be a struggle uphill

the disc is playing on my p.c. It's more wonderful, somehow more fuller than the bootleg/internet versions I've been listening to; obviously they had some fun in making the album version a bit different than the pre-released one that's been on the internet for months..... It's an amazingly magical sounding album. It fills my heart with hope and joy, I can laugh and cry simultaneously. And i'm so excited to be going to the concerts in October at Radio City. Thursday night, my pals Mark and Phil (ex#1, the sweetest man I know), as well as Jeff, his boyfriend, and Noel will be there. (jeff just emailed that he and Noel met for lunch, went to Sounds to buy their copies, and saw me on my bike, headphones on, oblivious to their calls!) I have the extra ticket which could go to some new person (are YOU BJORK-WORTHY??), but I also have a good friend who is waiting in the wings. It makes me happy to be able to share them, and not be tempted to scalp, and make lots of dough - it promises to be a wonderful night. Friday night I go with another good friend, ex#2, Jim. It's amazing to me that somehow, I will be sharing this night with my favorite people in the world......
