Here I am again, laying flat on my back, tapping the sides - not the soles - of my boots on the floor, trying to decipher a pattern in the ceiling tiles. I only ponder philosophical questions at times like this when I'm waiting for life to happen. Or maybe I'm a trailblazer in the infinite number of decisions I could make, paths I could take, things I could say.And, somewhere, in the optimistic pop, playful guitar solos, cowbell, and lyrics about two sisters and waiting for love, I get the sense Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin is sharing this state of mind. It's not about the lyrics, really, but the delivery:
"she can make-your-tongueAnd so it goes. Perishing will be released on April 8th.
she can make-your-tongue,
make your tongue stick to the suuu-un.
May-be if i laaaaay low,
love will fall around my door
the dogs will let me know..."

Some of you have been e-mailing me asking why I haven't been posting for the past month and a half. Here's an answer:
Sometimes I like to take a virtual vacation: I don't check my e-mail, pick up the phone, or turn on the television. I've been in need of one lately, and there's no way to pull it off during the semester...so I took a blog break instead. This semester is a bit crazy, but I'll try to get back to posting as often as I can.
