hey! me, jeff and hanly made a music video! it's our first one ever and i'll just come right out and tell you that i feel really damn proud about it. the way it happened more or less is that we brought our friend earthwalker out to the dunes where he ate some bad sand. we chased him around for a few hours singing loud and watching it all unravel until the daylight ran out. he is god's cousin. go on'n see for yourself.

+ stereogum was kind enough to premiere the finished product this morning, along with a free download of that ghost's "red bow." get that.

note from a *three-year-old to my friend, her former teacher:

I'm eating fruit and jam I miss singing "open shut them" with you. I've been playing with a big lady Molly who puts make-up on mommy, who has children named zion and viv and she also has a baby in her belly. I want you and I love you and I miss you and I hug you. And I kiss you and I hugged you and I fished you before I said goodbye didn't I? I ate a whole pomegranate it was this big. And my poppy shared it with me. And a kiss and a heart.

hey i forgot to tell you that my friends merida and pauline make these really snuggly woolen neckwears for wintertime and i shot the photos for their world famous catalog. those things are knitted out of luxurious merino wool, y'all! what are you knit out of?? nothing! anyway, these neckorations that are so comfortable you could go nuts are getting bought up by all the celebrities as you read this, but if you hurry you could still maybe get one or two before they sell out. they are called cowls. please, have one.
