It was my favorite CD of 2009. The pipes on Neko Case are unmatched.

This reviewer sums it up quite well:

” . . .with Middle Cyclone Case accomplished three undeniable superlatives: the coolest album cover of 2009, the most bizarre album closer (30 minutes of looped frog noises), and the loveliest love song, no matter that it was told from the point of view of a tornado in love with a lost child.” –Stephen M. Deusner

They are so sweet when they are sick. You just want to hold them until they get better. They’re so vulnerable (and so are you).

I wonder what they were like back then. I wonder what we were like back then.

He forgets how much fun he has with her. More seems to be getting done lately. Still sick.

The last day of the first week of the new year. It was a shit week, but I have high hopes for the rest of the year.

Rough morning. Something is trying to get me sick. The only good thing is that I get to take Elderberry. It sounds like something that is grown in the shire.

It’s never easy to say goodbye. The older I get the more I understand the term “mortal coil”.
