Start feeling better now. 'Cause it's on, bitch. Tonight, we make love to the city and the womens. By the by, I see in the comment below that Daniel Johnston is coming to Lincoln. You should go to the show. I know Daniel Johnston. He's from my hometown.
February 1, eh? I'm ready. There is another swanky art museum party that night, but I shall blow it off for you, my bearded friend. We will drink of the chalice of Tucson.
P.S. You grow facial hair faster than a Pakastani militant.
Ahh, yes... the phone call I could not understand. Sounded like you were in a wind tunnel. Haha, interesting sleep walking incident- those are fun. I've had a few odd ones myself. Although you might win this one...
Hey dude - what's new with you? Still writin? Thought I'd send out a hello - Amtrak's a dream, dude (don't know if Shannon told you, but the UP's dead to me). Life is good - stay in touch man...
So, yeah, I'm beginning to think getting my lights knocked out was my punishment for not coming to your house last Saturday! Hope it was a good time...
