Dotty Monday

• My parents are coming to visit tomorrow. This will be their third visit in the not-quite-six weeks since we moved. I think they're gradually moving in.
• Guess who's going to see her favorite band in one of her favorite towns, maybe with one of her favorite people (or her spouse)? Yes, me. Thank you. I also might be seeing someone I've known damn near my whole life but haven't seen in at least a decade. And B. might actually go! He never goes to shows with me. It'll be a big night, indeed.
• I haven't spoke much of Wilco since the move. Odd, since you'd think my favorite band would be on my mind now that I live in the hometown of the band's core member. Not that that's why we moved here. It's just a perk that I can drive past his childhood home whenever I go through the drive-thru at Geo's for hot wings. Not that I've done that. But I can. Anyway, the past 24 hours have been Wilcoful. Yesterday, I bought concert tickets. This morning, Clara Jane and I listened to their new CD, which begins with one of my current favorite songs, "Either Way". First I was sad when she said, "Hey! We saw this song on TV!" And then I was verklempt when she sang it word-for-word. Without the VW pimping, even.
• Tonight I finally watched Sunken Treasure. Of course.
• My awesome pal Summer, who takes gorgeous photos, today sent the ones she took at the Boob-Ha-Ha. Wanna see 'em? Have at it.
• That's pretty much it. Really. Basement sequestering. Neighbor stalking. Sock-knitting. Towel-folding. Coffee-drinking. That's about it.

  Columbia's nice. I saw Paul Westerberg at the Blue Note a few years ago, and I've been meaning to go back there for a non-concert (read: spend more than six hours and see something other than the hotel room and the club) day trip.
