Today would have been my dad's father's 93rd birthday (he died in 1988.) Yesterday was my cousin Kai's 3rd birthday. Tomorrow my brother returns from England. And then next sunday, i hit 24, which i'm feeling sort of ambivalent about, though i'm definitely in a better place now than i was a year ago, even with the drama and frustrations of apartment hunting.

Today is the free Laura Cantrell/Steven Malkmus/Yo La Tengo show in Battery Park, which should be a lot of fun. Fingers are crossed for YLT to eschew Summer Sun in favor of I Can Feel The Heart Beating As One, And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out, and earlier stuff.
