Listening to songs, singing along, alone at last in the night air. David Bowie and KMFDM, Throwing Muses and Shakespeare's Sister and Garbage and German techno and a million other songs all cycling through the stereo like a rainbow.

I want to hear my favorite Police song. The one that goes "young teacher, the object of school girl fantasy".

I'm torn between wanting to rest and just enjoy the silence, and wanting to stay up all night writing, reading vampire novels and Russian literature, cleaning, moving around the place until exhaustion overwhelms me at dawn.

And the circus in my head, in the middle of the bed in the middle of the night...

Up all night!

I've been very tempted lately to stay awake for a weekend. This would require no responsibilities, lots of breakfast tacos, dr pepper and many good concerts. ;)

have you ever seen Brave Combo?

this may be one of those "personal" things i was talking about...but you can't help dancing (well, b. used to resist, but they would get him at the end) and most people love them once they give it a try :) i've never heard of someone who didn't enjoy their live show.

category of music? salsa/meringue(sp?)/nuclear polka :) it's great!

Brave Combo! I saw them once and it was quite a fun show. They play here pretty often. Yay!

Now I want to dance around my living room but I have the feeling my downstairs neighbors won't like that. ;)

That Police song you're thinking of is "Don't Stand So Close to Me." (I bet you like it because of the reference to "that book by Nabokov.") It is one of the best Police songs.

don't stand, don't stand so, don't stand so close to me...

Even though they really do something strange the pronunciation of Nabokov! That's such a fabulous song. Makes me think of my handsome Russian professor.

yeah, and lolita is the book. The Jeremy Irons movie version of it's pretty good. But I've neaver read the book, so I can't compare.

I love Lolita. The annotated version is helpful, because I never picked up on any of the Poe references myself, along with a million other things. I like the newer film version too.
