When I was coming up, I always just wanted to be good at something, I never thought of it as masculine and I never thought of it as feminine, I thought of it as cool. And if they were really bad, it was the same embarrassment. My tastes have always been relatively nerdy. It takes a long time before you feel comfortable with yourself to embrace the nerd in you. And I like sci-fi and space and thinking about our existence and things like that.
I was fortunate, when I was in college, I had a group of friends who were individuals themselves. No one divided into any kind of camp or anything. I mean Zach, as a drummer, is another story.
So you know you always take the reverse, I was the wimpy, wimpy…. It was the coolest, coolest, coolest. You know I had a job for six years and I would walk to and from work listening to this, with my mouth open. But at the same time there were bands like the Walkmen doing real emotive stuff that I liked. But I remember, that when I have done stuff that I like, the moment when it hits? Greatest feeling. When I first came up here I hated it.
So, okay, part of the reason I went so gung ho with music was I had my first real boyfriend when I was 25 for a year and a half, and I loved it. I loooved him too much. So then he, last May, committed suicide. And it was horrible. The way he dealt with all his pain was to go from long term relationship to long term relationship. I still think about him all the time and I hope that the other people who were close to him do too. So then I had a boyfriend in the last year, Matt from Women, he played bass on my record, we split up a month and a half ago.
I expected there to be a lot more highs and I expected it to be a little bit easier. I really think that it takes crisis to grow. It takes failure and pain. Question mark.
