ohh ohhh ohhh! i forgot to mention that last night at the rose show, she was selling copies of her brand new cd. in fact, the cd has not even been released yet. and daemon has yet to set an official release date (all we know is that it will be out sometime in april). but i have it! and she signed it for me. this cd kicks some real ass. it's not just rose and her guitar; it's rose and a band. but unlike when some other artists get a full backup band, her band does not fuck up her sound and style. excellent cd. i'd highly recommend it.

i had amy ray's solo album before release date. now i have rose's. my next goal is to get my little hands on michelle malone's upcoming album before it is released. i want it for japan!

i know i've posted this before, but i need to repost. this has become my theme song:

This is the way I see it
This is the life I live
This is the how-to book for the heart I give
And this is the way I wake up
This is the tale I write
This is the prayer I pray in the dead of night
And here's all my fearful moments
Here's all the sounds I've heard
Tangled in the nothingness of the spoken word

Chorus: Hey, don't you know I'm laying way too low
I'm on my knees I'll pick myself up if you let me go
Hey, I've been down too long in the lost and found
Now I'm just getting off the ground

I have my share of secrets
And dozens of things I hide
And maybe I'll let you in but it might take time
'Cause you say that you want me near you
And you smile when I run right by
When I throw you a sideways glance if you catch my eye
But you've got the patience, I don't
You give the way I can't
So you tell me you love me and I'm likely not to understand

Chorus

Part of me just can't stop talking
Part of me is tongue-tied
Half of me is laughing and the other half is
Keeping track of every last tear I've cried

But it's never without emotion
It's never an easy ride
And I've got to admit that it's so nice to have you by my side

my response to the people who send 10 million "free briteny pics" e-mails:

"I have received this e-mail about 100 times. Now, if I really gave a rat's ass about "Briteny pics," I would have clicked on the link the first time. Get a clue. I don't give a flying fuck. And if you read my profile, you would see that I am an Indigo Girls lovin' feminist. I would never embrace an artist who does not write her own music and got a boob job at the age of 16. Get a clue and stop sending me your garbage!"

i updated.

i'm tres pissed because my pictures from ohio didn't turn out. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
posted by Crazy Karen at 2:21 PM

i hate hate hate this feeling.

you know, when something you have been looking forward to for so long is all over. done.

i had been counting the days (at the end even hours) till i got to go to ohio to see sensei. but now it's all over. i'm back at boring old home. i have to go to work tonight (though seeing the co-workers should help to aliviate some of the lonliness). i don't care where or how (i do care when -- the sooner the better), but i want to see her again. i was explaining this to brian on the phone last night. when i'm with her and her husband i can really be myself. i am totally relaxed when i'm at their house. and as i said in my journal, sensei and i could pick lint off the carpet together and i'd still manage to have a blast. she's just like that...

anyway, so i need to make a list of things to look forward to, or else i'll get really depressed.

list of upcoming cool things in karen's life:

rose polenzani on friday

dar williams on the 15th

denmark this summer

hearing from grad schools (????????)

kristin coming home in may

a possible wittenberg friends reunion this summer (and then i could see sensei afterwards)

JAPAN IN LESS THAN 4 WEEKS!!!

ok, so i have plenty to look forward to, but i still miss her...
