Honestly, someone should check AheadByEcho’s well being.

So Tough by Saint Etienne, the back of Mental Illness by Aimee Mann (who hugged me tonight)

Wearing this in a college bar is a trip. The kids don’t know whether to hit me or be intimidated.

AheadByEcho in a Raygun t shirt that reads AI is for Losers. But what is weird, is the photo I took in my kitchen looks AI!!??!!

I did not aim to send suggestive photos of The Last Waltz.

This was based on me and my favorite waitress (I was a cook) and I’m not fibbing.

Then make sure she had this photo.

Mike Houser’s actual automobile. I am absolutely certain I vomited nine bottles of Boones Farm Apple Wine in that backseat.

It’s a good gig I’ve got. Invite friends for dinner. I supply everything but they cook it. (Hey, it was Chicago hot dog night and I’m functioning with one hand.)

I’m guessing since these two books have been published this is at least the 132nd time they’ve been coupled together.

Two books on an oak bar. The first book is The Adventures of Harold and The Purple Crayon by Crockett Johnson and the second book is Last Days by Brian Evenson. Above the books is AheadByEcho’s mug of Dark Castle.

Don’t care not open for debate but in AheadByEcho’s homestead: the only two Aimee Mann albums that matter

I’m not on Mug Club at Golden Fox but the bartender pretends I am.

Celebrating Kristen’s birthday with all the bands around the letter and she is 24 hours streaming and shot me viciously twice.

Hm. Devo, Dylan, Fela and Kraftwerk? The most interesting bits of the alphabet

I rarely see her, but I talk about her endlessly. One of the coolest people I’ve ever been related to.

I just found a can of Mary Kitchen’s Corned Beef Hash and I’m listening to Dylan singing Million Dollar Bash and all is right with the world.

Jamie has two bags of hops in her purse. I always thought hops were solid like broccoli or cauliflower but they are dainty and so light!!

Failures and Sparks is their most grand album but this one is my fav rave.

Cold War Classic. The Chrysler’s sophomore album and perhaps, if AheadByEcho were to sway you, the Swedish band’s most munificent album.

My boombox was blinking on pause and I’m thinking somehow, the world just faltered.

AheadByEcho and his gun fetish amongst his beer bottle fetish, none of which actually exist.

I do believe we have just discovered where Trump's 30,000 pounds of mystery meat is coming from.

Headline from NYT: Under Trump, Protected Wild Horses Are Going To Slaughter (A legal loophole allows the government to sell mustanges on the cheap, stripping them of protections and clearing their path to destruction.)

It feels good to talk to the nurse again.

This was on my front door this morning. Fan mail from some flounder? Or something more sinister afoot?

Goddamnit. I justread my first Grady Hendrix influenced paperback from hell.

Elizabeth Engstrom (Betsy Lynn Gutzmer) debut novel which is a novella (the titular title) and a 200 pg book and honey, they are a mind fuck.
