Apropos of Midnight

posted by on March 24 at 23:55 PM

Coming home from work I stepped into the elevator, put my head against the wall, and sang, “It sums up the anxious way I am.” I sang it just like Scott Reitherman sings it, the “way,” “I,” and “am” three ascending notes in a very satisfying chord. It’s especially satisfying if you’re ascending in an elevator and it’s one of those old-fashioned ones with a window and you can see each floor. The band is Throw Me the Statue, the song is “Written in Heart Signs, Faintly,” and it’s been in my head for going on nine hours now.
