hello again! i have a suggestion. so if you're ever terribly bored, maybe you will give it a listen. R D Burman @ myspace. i am having so much fun listening to it at work. maybe nobody else appreciates it here, but i love it. have a great day!

Hello! I like a little R.D. Burman from time to time. I hadn't ever heard any of the songs on the myspace page, though, thanks for the tip. There have been days when I have listened to this Burman composition over and over. Was just the perfect kind of fun at those times.

well, i think i know why you feel like a zombie! have you heard that zombie boy song by the magnetic fields yet? also there's this super fun one i like by the thin man on greasy... something. can't remember the name of that cd. the song is picnic. if you find it and listen to it i hope you like it too. if not, well. and, i saw there are two rd burman myspace accounts. i haven't listened to the one sponsored by the fanclub. just the one that's called rahul dev burman. thanks for responding!

I haven't heard the new Magnetic Fields album yet. Quite frankly I wasn't really ever planning on it, but on your recommendation I think I'll check it out and do what I can to get a hold of Greasy Heart. Amazon will let me download it, but I think I'd rather just get it box and all. Thanks for the tips!

here's another. sorry if you don't go for that hippie pop ass shit.
but i think it's totally fun:) ha!

also, sorry if i'm bothering you with all this noise. if you would rather me not bother you, i will stop. i just like doing this.

Sorry about taking so long to get back, but rest assured, your recommendations are always welcome here. I gave the Octagonally Yours track a play, but have yet to form an opinion. I think I became a little disenchanted after I learned about the Optigan.

Can't say that I have ever heard ol' Shooby Taylor before, but wikipedia gave me 374 words on the subject. Before I read that I assumed that something was being played backwards over the Cash song. I must say that this is one of the more interesting things I've heard in quite a while.

badpenny thank you for reassuring me. i hope you meant that you liked him when you said interesting. i love his story too. he is a beautiful man. i read his bio at that website. he's so cute! he reminds me of my dad in a few ways. i'll read the link you shared after work.

funny: i rode my bike to work today and managed to crash twice in barely a mile. HA!

hi badpenny,
how are you? hope you're fine. it's my b-day this weekend, i think. older and older. i bought myself a book: when you are engulfed in flames by david sedaris. but i did that like a week or two ago. my b-day goes on for a long time my mind. i think i'll make all of july that way. my dad started that i think. he gave me the wishes on father's day. yeah he started it. happy birthday to you also. have another day.

[bp]

Happy birthday! I am, as you had hoped, fine. I've never read any David Sedaris, although I have often considered doing so. Did you enjoy it? I'm sure you did.

yes, i liked it. i'm so happy he... OH! i almost told you! AHHAHA. i can't tell you in case you decide to read this most recent one. but he's wonderful. i don't think he could write anything i wouldn't like by now. i'm ridiculous.

i think i will actually cry when he dies. i will cry. i'm about to cry at the thought of it. how very silly, but true.

i worked at a library for five years, i think it was. that's where i first encountered his work: Dress Your Family in Courduroy and Denim. from that point on, i've been hooked.

my mom died twelve years ago this month. so when i read Naked(?) where he talks about loosing his own mother and i was still able to actually laugh in the same book... i was overwhelmed. after that, i enjoyed his writing more than say entertainment reasons. that's the way it is for me because of my experiences, though i understand it may not be so for others.

sometimes he makes me laugh so hard i think i'm having an asthma attack. but i don't know if i have that condition. i don't smoke. i used to, but i quite when i was 20, started when i was 12. that's one of the things that killed my mother...

she was a reader. two (or more?) books going at the same time. scifi-horror-mystery. that's what i can remember. it really seems like too long ago. i can't believe i have to live the rest of my life without her. she was talented. i could go on and on about her. enough of it.

but one last thing like this: i wanted to tell you before (even years ago), i guess i will now. it's good when you get to spend time with your mother. i liked your story about when you drove with her wherever. times like that don't last forever.

oh yeah. one more thing. remember you said you'd take my suggestions? you didn't specify or limit that to music soooo-

i suggest you take a cab.

I spend a fair amount of time with my mother, of course, I could spend more...
