The Sound of the Crowd

Time To Move Again

MSNBC says the most overpriced place to live in 2004…is Seattle, Washington. Fuck it. I’m moving back to San Francisco. At least it’s only number seven.

I no longer remember what brought me to Seattle in the first place but the prices weren’t that bad at the time. I only know that it has been disastrous for my emotional maturity and intelligence.

So this is what I want to do, but now, how to do it?

It strikes me that in some ways Garden State is about coming home when you no longer know where or what home is.

Song Styles

I had a dream I was alone

Nowhere was mine, no one was home

Sunshine don’t you wake me, darkness come and take me

Kirsty MacColl, “Don’t Go Home”
