Today I emailed a song request to the morning DJ at KEXP, for the first time. A few minutes later I was driving to an appointment and the DJ says, "Got a lot of good requests coming in. Here's 'Wishful Thinking' by Wilco..." and I got so excited. He didn't even say my name, but it reminds me of sitting Melissa's bedroom in Middle School, calling in requests and dedicating songs on Kiss 96.5. Like, all Friday night. You know, songs by En Vogue and Jamie Walters (ahem, How do you Talk to an Angel?...I'm looking at you Jay).

Luckily (?) my tastes have changed. Man I love me some Wilco!
I got acupuncture today for some ailment that I've been coping with and I already feel better. It's gotten really bad but after my successful song request and some oriental healing needles, things are looking up.

Here's a show poster for Wilco by
Crosshair outta Chicago.
