Random flashback

[misfoks]

When I first moved to DC I rented the upstairs floor of a vintage house, with nothing but a sleeping bag to sleep on and a 10 year old girl's misplaced tombstone for a headboard. Cranes were on their "Loved" tour around this time, which I caught at the 9:30 Club; after the show I got a hug from Alison (she's really sweet, even if she still unnerves me somewhat) and chatted with her and Jim for a while. To this day, "Shining Road" still summons the smell of decaying granite and wood.
