Going out of town for a few days. The Mission: Make Liz Phair fall in love with me. Considering it's highly unlikely the mission will be successful, I'll have to console my heart and loins with seeing her live in concert in Austin.

Here's one of my favorite Liz Phair songs. It's the first one on her Whip-smart album.

Chopsticks

I met him at a party and he told me how to drive him home.
He said he liked to do it backwards. I said that's just fine with me.
That way we can fuck and watch TV.

It was four a.m. and the light was gray like it always is in paperbacks.
He asked if I liked playing jacks. I told him that I was good to sixes,
But all hell broke loose after that.

I told him that I knew Julia Roberts when I was twelve at summer camp.
We didn't say anything after that. I dropped him off and I drove on home
'Cause secretly, I'm timid.
