talking like a teen.

i'm trying to go out more because i'm convinced that going out will make me feel a little bit better about still being in los angeles for, as of two months ago, seven years. and i pretty much see my temporary acceptance translating directly into going to shows. consequently, i've gone to two shows (bishop allen and the mountain goats) in the past week, neither of which i had time for, but felt were justified given the above. surprisingly, of the two, bishop allen won my heart which almost certainly means that there's part of me that's really not wanting to grow up. and, for now, i guess i'm ok with that if it makes me feel like la is just a little bit smaller.
