cathedrals

jay clifford is a genius. this song has been one of my favorites since i heard it back in high school. these guys were amazing live and it still saddens me that they never blew up, but i feel privileged to have seen them and been one of the many blown away by their music.



i need to get out and shoot some photos.

hide and seek

it's all part of the process...

this could be the hardest thing i've ever done
walking away from you
i used to think you were the one
sometimes i still do

and i'm watching as my clock rolls over to a new day
and i know it's going to be another sleepless night
i can't be the very person that you want me to be
and i have to tell myself that this is right

you told me i was a fool
you'll never find another girl out there like me
and while that may be good and true
i'll leave it up to chance and see

and i'm watching as the days go by but don't get easy
but it's too late to take back what i've done now
and it's just the pain in my heart that's talking to me
i shouldn't listen to it anyhow

take my pain away
take my pain away
don't want to be afraid
take the pain away

i brought your stuff back to your house
it really did a number on me
part of me wanted you to come down
to end this game of hide and seek

now this is hockey

kehoe's brother was playing in an adult league hockey game in nasvhille friday night so we went to check it out. i felt like we were in some movie like fargo because it was just so culturally different from what i was used to.

the smell: it smelled like a locker room but worse. it was like they were harvesting sweat slime or something.

the crowd: redneck and proud. i haven't seen anybody but trendy folks since i moved up here, and for once i saw different types of people. there was the girl with hair to her butt who was crocheting, the girls with too much make-up smacking on their gum, and the men with trucker hats (who weren't wearing them to be cool) and beer guts.

the game: apparently pads are optional in this league because the guys on the other team were playing in their white-tees, and i don't mean the big ones the rappers wear. kehoe's brother's team had 2 girls on it, including the goalie who looked to be close to 50 years old the other girl was probably the best player on the team. the game was full of bad skating, even worse passing, and a lot of bloopers. the league doesn't allow fighting, so we were pleased to see the players ignore the rules as they fought and got kicked out one player after another. the good ol' country boys in their white tees lost badly in the end, but the game wasn't about the competition for me, it was the movie-like comedy.
