new wave

back before she was famous, sarah jessica parker was on a show called square pegs. i was a kid. the show was about valley girls. i loved it.

my one actual memory of the show...there was a guy named johnny. he had a band. he wrote a song that went something like this:
i'm tired.
i'm so tired.
i'm very tired.
i'm really tired.
i'm totally tired.
totally.

my mom's car died. tomorrow i will wake up too early and take a train to the suburbs, then a cab to her house, so that i can teach her how to ride the bus - something she probably hasn't done in thirty or forty years.

totally.
