An Introspective Retrospective of a Prospective Genius

Monkey and Kitty

Ok, as I was saying last night, I once had the odd experience of enjoying the simple pleasures of watching a monkey bathe a cat. Evidently, cats enjoy a bubble bath and monkeys are quite adept at giving them. Really, that's what life is all about, a monkey bathing a cat. It's a beautiful metaphor for um, love and uh, friendship. Maybe? Something like that anyway. There really is a video clip somewhere in the world of media that shows a monkey bathing a cat, Letterman used to show it quite frequently, but for the most part I've been making this post up as I go along. Call it sort of a stream of consciousness writing exercise. One could also say I'm writing nonsense. I think both are true, depending on one's point of view. Remember what Ben Kenobi said? Ok, now I'm making Star Wars allusions, it's time to to change subjects.

I found out I have to go to a stupid family wedding in Pennsylvania at the end of May. So, since I'm being dragged North, I've decided to try and have some fun. My current plan is to go further North to New York for a visit to the Late Show and an Aimee Mann concert. I've never actually been to a concert, the loudness sort of makes me really nervous. However, Aimee's not death metal and it's an intimate venue, so I really want to go. I also might be able to get some backstage access, which would rule. Though, really, I just want to hit the concert. I can't believe I don't know anybody else who's into her music, her lyrics are amazing. So, we'll see how it goes, eh?
