Hey jp,

I just got back in town from spending the weekend at my dad's. Got to see my stepsister's volleyball team play a couple matches for their tournament. She's gonna be getting her learner's permit soon. I feel so old suddenly... :) I also watched my brother's basketball game, which was a blast. All in all, I had a wonderful time and today is so beautiful that I'm feeling great!

Here's something that I'm still pretty impressed with. When we first played this in the band I was thinking "Cool. A nice laid back little thing to chill out with." Then Jesse started singing, and some of these lyrics he wrote still grab me, so I guess I'll let this out there. I'm just surprised I had a hand in writing the song. This is pretty much what I hear Jesse singing. I might be off here and there. He improvises a lot too....

So, you know. Just figured this might amuse you. (Ha. Like I have a chance.) Thanks for the sunshine and take care.

Trip Song - Allison Wonderland (copyright 1999 Allison Wonderland. Seriously)

*Opens and closes with quiet music and 'shhhh'ing from Jesse. Closest we could get to an ocean sound. :) *

I don't know what's good you see
there's gotta be a change
in my game....

The days are just like cigarettes
they're hot and then they're gone
Well, but the scent lives on....

Do you ever wonder why
the world looks so around?
or why I've got a frown?
or why I.. why I ever wonder why.....

*music more intense*

And I want to impress her
so I could undress.
Her.....

Cold down by the memories
the fire never.
Burns away, my friends

Ashes baby
ashes........ and silverware (?)
*music slow again*

Do you ever wonder why?........
shhhhhhhhhh
