Dresden Dolls

I'm a big lame-o, but I finally saw a full set for Dresden Dolls, and it rocked as anticipated. Singergirl was impressive and full of pathos, as expected, but drummerboy... wow: amazingly talented (to the point of having to hold himself in check), added to awesome hair and surprisingly compelling musculature on such a scrawny little frame.

The opening band, The Red Paintings were amazingly good. I picked up their most recent cd, and only regret I didn't have the cash to get the first as well. If not for weirdness around my sudden inability to handle the heat, and back issues, it would have been just about perfect.

I want so many good things for you, things that seem almost in reach. It seems like you want them, too, but hold back, possibly out of fear, or comfort, or not wanting to put connection at risk for something full of promise but as of yet short on manifestation. You see this, though, and you don't flinch away from it even if you don't leap into action with energy and commitment I want to see (and to emulate). It's a common theme amongst my friends, but particularly so in your case; you're so much better than you think you are, and deserve so much more than you allow yourself.
