Today will be slightly warmer than today, maybe not so much of that kick-in-the-pants wind we all know and hate, but something.
Today's Horoscope: Lately I've been trying to curb it on the "loose language." (Read: swearing.) But today I stepped outside and saw a bright, distant object falling down into the far north horizon. I'm still not sure what it was, but when I saw it the only thoughts that went through my head were "fuck. shit." and then the image of a bright light followed by nuclear death. Thankfully none of this came to pass. Satellite? Meteorite? Christ, who knows.
With a little alone time to myself I was able to turn the amps up to ten and start work on the concept album I want to put out before I move: The Story of Hellen Keller: Savage Woman of the Deep South. This track is a bare-bones out line of the first track, "The Birth of Hellen Keller." It represents HKs time in the womb and her immediate departure into the dark, noiseless and cruel reality of the Confederate-ruled deep south. The recording is shit, no bass, and two (out of two) vocal-drones are missing but what can I say? I'm still excited about this.

Not much is known about the "Blind Lame idiot poet of the south," but we do know that at some point her master introduced her to Mark Twain. Oooooh, right?
