The Guerilla Girls Benefit the weekend before last was a lot of fun! I finally had time to spend at cult status for a change... and it was really cool to see so many artists contributing to such a worthwhile cause. 

It seems I have had a lot of benefits to participate in recently... I love the concept of people helping people... community seems a little thin at times for this small town girl... that grew up knowing her neighbors... which was everyone in town... I still remember a time when I could identify everyone in town by their car... or their farm... or their relatives... 

I have been thinking a lot lately about my friends... past, present and future. I have an old friend in town right now from Sweden. The first time I heard this s&g song was when he played it for me. When I moved to Las Vegas many many years ago... he gave me a card... and inside was a slip of paper with the lyrics to that song as well. I have been very lucky in my lifetime. I have many good friends. Some I rarely see these days... others I see all the time. I love the way an old friend is like an old record. No matter how much time passes... you can simply sit down with it... and all the old reasons you fell in love to begin with come right back to you. 
Another old time friend had dinner with me last week. He taught me to love rick nelson, harry nilsson and old cars. it's been a long time since we had the chance to swap music... but we picked right back up where we had left off... as if no time had passed at all.
other notables in my life in recent years probably already know who they are... but here are their songs...
there are at the least... a thousand other songs... that bleed together... and remind me of aha moments... i am thankful for all of them... your compilation fuels me
i promise to talk about art again soon
