I've officially let myself become run-down and sick. gross. All I want to do is sleep but sleep doesn't come to me (you). I can't help but wonder if it's because I have a big project due on Wednesday and this is some twisted way of procrastinating. Perhaps it's my hypochondria preventing me from getting it done? Then there is the fact that I didn't get very much sleep over the weekend because of work/shows I went to. Which were pretty respectable events, in my opinion. The Rilo Kiley show on Monday was (is always) excellent. I think that was my fifth time seeing the Jenny Lewis (who's counting?). My favorite part was the version of Portions for Foxes they did that segued into the third verse of Spectacular Views. The third verse goes like this: See the stars/where the birds make their home/staring back at us./ Indifferent, but distanced perfectly/ projected endlessly/ IT'S SO FUCKING BEAUTIFUL. (yell, yell, yell) If you don't know the song spectacular views then you're missing out, it's really high up on my list of fav. rilo songs.
I also went to the Mates of State show over the weekend and it was good times. They are adorable. They did a cover of a Nico song that I absolutely love and is sort of perfect for my sick times anthem.
these days
