the void

suggested track: "superstition" by the kills

i don't know what to do with myself at all. being done with school isn't fun. even though school is still in session, i feel like it is summer already. i have no more obligations, save my assistantship which ends in a week or two. so now the question i get asked multiple times a day, and have been asking myself constantly for a year now is "what next?" fuck if i know. i am staying in madison for the summer. that's all i know. but what i have to do in the next couple of weeks is: find a sublet for the summer, find a summer job, figure out what to do after summer. essentially what to do with my life. also, can i maintain some semblence of artistic production now that i don't have the support of an academic network? my options are simultaneously too much and not enough.

on a different note last night i saw the kills. i've attempted a link to their site, but am positive that i fucked it up. anyway, they rocked. i saw them last fall open up for the von bondies, and they were awesome then. but they really rocked last night. only problem is that they played a very short set. but they played everything i wanted to hear. even "gum" which is the live track from their black rooster ep. so good. i highly recommend the kills to everyone. i know nobody ever listens to my musical suggestions, but the kills fall out of my normal musical tastes. one guy on a filthy sounding guitar, one girl on vocals, and a drum machine. at least michael fearnow should buy their album. keep on the mean side… buy it today. honestly, i can't think of anyone that wouldn't like this. they are much better than the streets, which tripp is endlessly promoting. but i'm sure tripp will disagree.

okay, maybe this won't be a fuckup. oh, the 21st century confounds me so…
