my friend who was awoken from sleep late into the night by a crying baby who apparently was having a nightmare asks:"what do babies have nightmares about, anyway? Giant milk bottles chasing them?". funny stuff sofia.
along with the topic of her very cute little boy, she also writes of death, friends, movies watched and life in general. check it out if you have time.

last night i went to First Ave to attend a benefit. a benefit with cool bands, and lots of stuff for sale. i love my First Ave. the place where i always feel at home, safe and warm. yes this is the same First Ave that is dark, dirty and filled with the noise of all sorts of bands(from Metallica to Henry Rollins to Bob Mould), oh and don't forget the tattoos, piercings, and black clothing wearing people. i love my First Ave.
anyway the benefit was cool and it was fun to shop with a live band playing. soaps, jewelry, used clothing, interesting old records (a record that Bill Cosby made in the 60's...he looks sooo young; the Supremes; oh so many others), interesting people. anyway, as i was happy and in my element, feeling pretty cool b/c after all this is my 'second-home', i went shopping, and in the process, in front of everyone, i...i...leaned over to reach for a cool sculpture and burnt my sweater...not to the core...but i still remember sofia saying 'oh my god mamatha your sweater is on fire'...my sweater's sleeve had smoke coming out of it...and i smelled like a burnt sweater all evening. moral of the story: you are not as 'cool' as you think you are, esp when you light yourself on fire accidently, in front of people. it was kinda funny.
robin, preeth and sofia had a good time i think...but when i got home i forgot that it was not a friday but instead a wednesday...it's been so long since i did anything like this on a 'school night'. definitely fun to do something different, esp in the middle of the week.
