I had a miserable trip home, complete with torrential downpours and a spiteful GPS that thought it would be cool if we detoured through the set of Deliverance during one particularly brutal thunderstorm. The trip took about 2 hours and three cans of Amp longer than it should’ve but everything was redeemed when I got home and—mixed in with my Pet Meds catalog and Duke Power bill—was another early b-day gift.
I was beyond thrilled to tear open an Amazon logo box to discover a volume from the 33 1/3 series all about my fave R.E.M. record. My suitcase has been ignored for the past hour while I read about the instrumentation on “Perfect Circle”…and I’m totally OK with that.
Early birthday presents and friends with good memories for the win. Thank you.
Extra Added Bonus: Now I’ll have even more music-related droppings to rain down on everyone.1 Let the mass unfollowing begin…
1 That last Peter Buck quote was from page ix… not even a real numbered page and ALREADY I insist on repeating it.
