Its early for most, but late for me. I didn't sleep tonight, as I am Captain Procrastination and said "Eh, I'll do my 1500 word paper the night before it's due." Which is exactly what I did. It's done, and I do believe it's damn good. In other news, I have realized I have been missing a great band for awhile now. The Mountain Goats put more fire and intensity into songs with just a singer and an acoustic guitar than almost every band I can think of. IM me (cycoe on AIM) and I'll send you a couple songs of theirs. Because no one should exist on this planet without them.

The most remarkable thing about coming home to you
is the feeling of being in motion again.
Its the most extraordinary thing in the world.

I have two big hands
And a heart pumping blood
And a 1967 Colt .45
With a busted safety catch.

The world shines,
As I cross the Macon county line
Going to Georgia.

The most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway
Is that it's you, and that you're standing in the doorway,
And you smile as you ease the gun from my hand
I am frozen with joy, right where I stand
The world throws its light underneath your hair
40 miles from Atlanta this is nowhere
Going to Georgia.

The world shines
As I cross the Macon county line
Going to Georgia.

- The Mountain Goats - Going to Georgia
