On Tuesday, I got on the road to Albany:

It’s kind of bad that I took this while driving.

 In Albany, I met up with Felicia who organized the house show for the evening. We sat on her stoop and I changed my guitar strings:
 

Felicia took me across the street to visit “the free school” where she is an intern. They are currently incubating baby chick eggs, as evidenced by this adorable picture:

 

I met Ryan Clover & Elliott Harvey. They were both lovely and very talented. Everybody made dinner. Well, mostly Ryan & Felicia but everybody took part in eating dinner:

 

 Ryan played the banjo [no picture :(]

Elliott played the guitar:

After the show we made a fire:

 

  I hung out in Saratoga on Wednesday and headed back Wednesday night. Thursday morning I met up with Simon and we drove down to Frederick, MD.

We played in a really pretty park, the same park that we played in last May!:
 

  Everybody was really great. No pictures from my set but here is a picture of another performer named C-bend from Alabama:

 

  From Frederick we went to Baltimore/Catonsville to hang out with one of my oldest friends in the universe!! We explored the city with Simon:

 

  We went to a sex toy shop called Sugar in Hamden (they are excited because they found a Ducky Doolittle book and that purple vibrator):

 

  We went out for tapas (ha) and indulged in a round of pomegranate margaritas. I liked this because I like the idea of mixing antioxidants with alcohol:
 

At this point I’m going to stop with the camera phone pics & re-post the pictures that Adam Kurtz took at his “SCHOOL IS OVER FOREVER” show on Saturday. Thanks Adam!

 The show was at the 4610 1/2 house!

I met a boy who had basically the same haircut as me:

  Sean Mercer played:

 

  We played:

 

  Adam Taylor played:

 

  We all played, it wasn’t the best because we were confused but it was fun:




We ate delicious cupcakes that Victoria made!:

I hung out with my best friends :) : 

And then we came back to NY today and barbecued at the Blum house. That was my week. I’m hoping that this week is equally as exciting and also really relaxing. I love summer!
