are you interestd? She's easily one of the most awesome people I know, and we've been friends since elementary school. It's hard to see her since she goes to school out in the middle of the desert and lives at the wrong end of the state, but we try to call and write and have a good summer and all that.

So we're still at the coffee shop, and it comes out that Joanna Newsom, indie fanboy crush of the year 2004, was a junior at her high school when she was a freshman. "Yeah. I hated that bitch." Why? "Well everybody liked her and thought she was so cute. When the buddist monks came to town she gave them a cherry tree cutting, cause it was so beauutiful and poetic and childlike. I couldn't really stand her - I liked to think it was all a big act, that she was a big fake." Any evidence? "No. Duh." Jealously? Inevitable consequence of high school politics, minor difference, local celebrity, and a dash of jealously. "Yeah, probably. Wanna go buy that yarn now?" Yes. We need envelopes too.

So in summary, i like my awesome friend more than Joanna Newsom. I hope they don't run into each other this holiday season, but if they did, I'd bet they'd make fast friends.
