and not checking into Sonic Youth forum very often if at all.

i've been so busy lately i haven't really been around enough to justify making a thread to say i'll be gone, but eh. someone might notice and/or care.

the reason is i'm moving (to South Carolina) next week so:

1. don't get mad/confused/insulted if i don't pm you back
2. don't get mad/confused/insulted if i don't respond to a thread
3. don't ask me if i'm married yet, i am!

on a side note i trimmed my nails today and took a shower.

So weird, to be leaving full-time employment for the freelancer life. Terrifying, actually.

[gmku]

I love you guys, gosh darn it.

Is he having a laugh?

[SynthethicalY]

I think I will vow not to laugh till you return.

What? I didn't know that you had left me for somebody older than myself, without even telling me. What a slut.

oh, man! thanks so much!!! I've never watched your show, but I've heard that it is kind of funny (sometimes).

I can't wait until I tell my friend about this!

Oh no I am just using him for his money, so we can have a better life, even if that means whoring myself.

Whatever you do, don't scratch his Rolling Stones records or we're fucked.

[gmku]

Are you kidding? You don't even get to touch my Stones records.

I threw the getting married bit in as a laugh, and to throw off the scent of my admirers, Porky and Syn in particular. I've been married a looonnggg time, and no, not even my bride gets to touch my Stones records.

Well, I'm jumping the gun a bit. I'll have computer connection for another coupla days. Then the next time you hear from me after that will be from my new gonzo laptop somewhere deep in the tropical swamps of South Carolina.

Just know that my thoughts are with you.

[SynthethicalY]

Anyways, hope you like your new place over in SC.

[gmku]

Here's something sad: The first date I took my then-future-wife on was to see a Stones film in the student union. Then on exiting the movie room, we ran into a girl I'd just dated the week before who started flirting with me. Looking back, I'm flabbergasted my future-wife ever went out with me again.

Well the good thing is she ended with you. And stones, does she get annoyed when you play them?

[gmku]

Ha, well, let's just say she started out not being a fan. And mostly I listen to music on the phones. But yeah, when it's a mutual listening experience, we hardly ever play the Stones. Maybe Hot Rocks. She seems to be okay with some stuff, like the early-mid 60s garage-y sounding things.

But for whatever reason (love?), she never put up a fuss about my obsession, ever. She was into Fleetwood Mac when we met and soft rock groups like that, but I turned her on to some of the new wave and punk things I was starting to listen to--Costello, Television, Patti Smith, Talking Heads. She'd just never had any friends or boyfriends who were into "good" music.

She never really got into my Stones thing, but... last May I left a tape of Let It Bleed in the car cassette deck, and she was playing it when she picked me up from work one day. I told her she didn't have to listen to that and apologized for leaving it in the car, and she said she'd heard the tape twice now in the car and was really liking it.
