i got a real problem with you, beth, and it has nothing to do with that time you made fun of me during your show at the double door all the way back when. nope, i have gotten over that, kind of. my problem is that i want to love you more than any other but you constantly push me away. check out this awesome chart, which i think explains it all. where my words fail, charts can do the talkin.
trailer park??????????????? central reservation?????? daybreaker?????? comfort of strangers

Wait… what did she say to you at the show??
And I take it from your chart that I should check out trailer park? Or is that energy on the y-axis?
what i said and her response is between me and her and however many people fill the double door.
you should definitely check out trailer park. its a wonderful record.
Ah, so you initiated it? C’mon – you can tell me, it will just be between you and me and the internet…
i said something about wanting to make her breakfast while we were chatting off stage. then she got up there and made mention of it and pointed me out. she was very very sweet, but still a wee bit embarrasing. to this day i wonder if i would have pushed the issue, if i could have been able to.
