BROOKLYN WEEK 2008: Push It To The Max!

What's that? Yes, every. single. day. I am taking the subway to way-the-hell-out-there-Bay Ridge, to record what will become my NEW EP. It's an hour each way. I have a 600-page book that I am already half-way through.

4) my rainbow socks.

Cam and I have been busy recording this month, and …

youuuuuu did it.

today felt like it was about 72 hours long. and i think that's how thanksgiving usually feels (for me, anyway). you wake up and you start cooking (er, your mom starts cooking...you watch...i'm not sure if the domesticated part of me will EVER awaken) and it takes …

i'm here, i'm here

last night I went to ASSSSCAT, and Sarah Silverman told a story about a family member. And then came back later to say that she had been thinking about that story and felt bad about telling it, so if we HAD TO BLOG ABOUT IT (and she knows we'll just HAVE TO), to use …
