This week in absurdities
I think I have bronchitis. My coughs are becoming increasingly catastrophic. Furthermore, I just now realized that Silliman and I have been using the same toothbrush for quite some time now. Full tracklist for recording is more or less decided on. I'm taking a nap.
1. The Last (song about Amanda...but not really)
2. Lunita (song for the kitten the Ault's have)
3. Now And Then (for Matt and Jonathan and the little time we have together)
4. Dear Sister (for Kate and an apology for being a bad older brother)
5. Only October (song about leaving the ones you love. Past: Grandfather died Present: Away from my immediate family; Future: missing wife and kids)
6. Life After...(song about being a ghost and looking on your lover moving on)
7. Michael's Song (Boy I knew in elementary school who died of a brain tumor. Pain, redemption, etc.)
8. (untitled song about my grandmother losing her faith. She grew up on an indian reservation. There was a convent there and she went to school at that convent. Late one Thursday night, a shipment of meat came in. If they didn't eat it on Friday, the meat would go bad. But it was lent. But it was also the great depression. She couldn't understand why a religion would put that before physical needs.)
9. (untitled song for my 2nd cousin Sherman, who just went through a divorce)
10. (untitled for Grandfather, who never said a bad word about anyone or anything)
11. VanCroft Steel (Story of how this VanCroft guy paid off other businesses to go somewhere else besides McComb where my mother grew up. the city is dead now.)
12. Poor Bastards I Never Knew (Song about how the best of times have past, but have they really?)
