last night aijia, craggs, and i went out to billyburg to see the eternal bachelor and his band play and we had a blast. the music and the bachelor's drink tickets were very good and dancing was merry. i forgot to bring earplugs and aijia taught me that putting pieces of wet napkins in your ears works almost as well, even if it feels silly. afterwards we went to the pine box and had post-show beverages and it felt really good to see a friendly LA face in this sort of chaotic and exhausting town. in true touring musician fashion, the bachelor had no idea where he was staying for the night and ended up crashing on a spare mattress on my floor. i woke up in the morning totally discombobulated with a pounding headache. we had planned on getting breakfast but opted for hitting snooze repeatedly all morning and stumbling out to the bodega for sandwiches, blinded by the copious daylight and migraine. i sent the bachelor off on the subway (en route to Vermont) and crawled back into my bed and slept until afternoon. i was weak and feeble all day so aijia made me chicken, potatoes, and brussel sprouts for dinner and shoo-fly molasses pie while we all traded stories about how terrible we felt all day.
