now it's over I'm dead


and I haven't done anything that I want
or, I'm still alive and there's nothing I want to do.

I interviewed John Flansburgh, one-half of They Might Be Giants (the guy back and to the left), today for my Going on 50 project and I'm hopeful that this particular piece will see the light of day in time for, say, the 50th anniversary of Mr. Flansburgh's birth (which is a mere week away).
which means I'll spend a decent amount of my upcoming weekend transcribing (though the weather's supposed to be on the gorgeous side (a welcome change)).
but that's okay because JF's a thoughtful fellow and our conversation was, at a minimum, pleasant and enjoyable so I'm looking forward to going back to it.

and if you don't own They Might Be Giants (shame on you), may I suggest that you start with one of my favorites (if not my very favorite TMBG song), "Dead."
