for a while "still remember how to skate with the knees in" was the line that lodged itself like a splinter in my brain. a pigeon toed as a kid, I started skating and playing hockey to try and deal with it and needed to learn how to keep my feet parallel so i could skate backwards because they made me defense as i wasn't quite fast enough for offense and i've sorta felt like that in one way or another ever since. my daughter woke me up early today so i got breakfast down the street and waited for the typewriter store to open but the woman looked busy when i looked in the window so maybe i'll go back tomorrow and see if she'll sell me a typewriter. it really doesn't seem like she wants to sell anyone a typewriter despite running a typewriter store. there's whiskey around the edges of these verses - let it all sweat out of your pores. when i met matt for the first time i was 3 beers into it at the function. the night my wife's water broke i was on my third glass of whiskey and haven't had a drink since. i've put a lot of things off for a really long time.
im not even gonna touch the substance of what you're saying in the written piece here because i have so many thoughts about that moment and they're gonna come out in a really long thing I'll post later. but i wanted to share how the song makes me feel. also, this piece is so personal, and i don't think i was going to find that tone on my own but i wanted to get there. thanks for giving me a map.
