i am going to make an utter fool of myself i am sure with one of my last posts (im leaving on monday for minneapolis - goodbye internet goodbye sinister goodbye shangri-L.A. or Hell A or just plain los angeles) but not _the_ last post ill say goodbye properly on monday... first i would like to say that although it is probably not still up for debate you should get galaxie500 i had a boyfriend in minneapolis once who played them for me a lot of years ago and cautioned me that if i should ever find any of their albums to buy them at once because they were out of print... i foolishly ignored the boy and went home with 'tugboat' stuck in my head we broke up shortly afterwards and i spent the next 2 years searching idly for _anything_ by them until i luckily stumbled upon selected galaxie500... and i was happy as the school girl i am once again... i dont have the box set though as i am utterly broke... also i share a birthday with buddy holly that is september 7th... and sassy was the coolest magazine ever my mum got me a subscription when i was in 7th grade... ah cute band alert! dear boy column! i think that it really was the best 'teen' magazine ever it kept me from falling prey to the evil forces of teen and seventeen thats for sure... i think that i got rid of all my issues when i moved - wish id kept them though... and there is a lyric in a capn jazz song (a fantastic screamy emo band from chicago which is unfortunately no more) that says 'its something you read in sassy...' only the singer is very mumbly so for the longest time i thought he was saying 'something something _im_ sassy!' owell... other things... "I'm Afraid Of The Dark Without You Close To Me" Magnetic Fields i always thought that this was from a superchunk song... 100,000 fireflies? am i wrong? also i think that the pixies are from amherst and not boston proper? my my arent i like correction fluid today? lalala! ive got to finish packing... a great book about los angeles is weetzie bat its meant for kids who are 12 i think but its all about la and when i have to leave i always take it with me because it makes me happy its about the dreamworld that actually can exist in los angeles and it keeps me from getting too homesick... trala! allison ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
