I met a guy at the Rainbow Center fundraiser/talent show who wrote a song using every key on the piano because he didn't want any of them to be left out. The remarkable thing was that the song worked on its own musical merit, as well as as a concept. It was sort of beautiful and rambly.
Soon I go to organize the making of Day of Silence buttons in my living room. Again I swallow my cynicism, try to change the world through brightly coloured paper, and feed experimental baked goods to high school students. Mr. Whitman was impressed at our being active over spring break, and I resisted the urge to answer his email with "Bitch, please."
Gary Jules' "Mad World is striking me as particularly profound right now. I shouldn't think too much about that, it'll depress me, which is not conducive to button-making.
