The idea of a midatlantic blog appeals to me for many reasons, described THUSLY:
1. The Northeast - there are some of us who want to go West for warmer places, or more Portland - y places. Aside from becoming good friends with Kathy from the Thermals, this does not appeal to me because I would miss the Northeast too much, and the fact that so much of my wide ranging character was born out of seasons. It feels good to me, to be melancholy because November is empty trees and winter is soundless and white, and spring feels like being alive again. Plus shit, I think we're tougher kids because we know what brown and grey looks like.
2. Maps - we have been nomads and will continue to do so for a while yet. I was a big fan of matt pond PA's "The Nature of Maps" because of my blip theory and how much I like thinking of the lines drawn between us far flung kids. We can do a connect the dots between Rochester, Brooklyn, Georgetown, Ohio, and whereever the hell Takashi winds up.
3. This is our movement, goinggoing and getting bigger.
There. Now less FEELINGS and more rowdiness.

do you think that the hair would be its perfect color all the time if there were no winter?
less feelings for sure, warrior.
wait.
what hair?
unrelated to your question, i do enjoy the fact that my hair changes colors because of the seasons. it is good to have something to look forward to.
YOUR hair. and also my hair, i guess. you know, hair in general, which always looks its best in the summer because of free sunny highlights.
I think that I wouldn't feel as good about it if it weren't for the extremes of great hair and winter hair. We gain perspective from midatlantic flava
