PRR:
so anyway last night me and mike ate at the dining hall on Washington Square West just north of W. 4th St and i was thinking about how this is the first september since i was like 4 years old that i am not going Back To School and how it feels like graduating from college was like getting shot out of a cannon into adulthood, which is something i think about a lot
on the new No Age record there’s a line about waking up and trying to find your cleanest shirt to wear to work which i think also captures this feeling. like do adults wash their shirts every single time they wear the shirt? how much time and money would you devote to doing laundry? that seems crazy. also i was thinking about how in the 33 1/3 book about Joy Division by Chris Ott, Ott notes that Ian Curtis was married when he was 18 or 19 and killed himself when he was 23, and also some of my friends’ parents got married when they were like 19 or 20 and i don’t even understand how that happens, not that it shouldn’t happen but like how you and your wife could drive to the liquor store and she would wait in the car while you went inside the liquor store and then you would come out and get back into the car and look at your wife and say “they didn’t take my fake”
