While We're On Thrice....

826 Valencia is a cool little place in San Fran that is one of the charities that Thrice has given a portion of its proceeds to over the years, namely during the Vheissu era when 826 founder Dave Eggers (author of my favorite book of all time What is the What) did the album artwork. His writing workshop offers after-school writing help for kids ages 8-18, adult writing a literacy workshops, and yes....a legit pirate store.

Its a cool non-profit organization and you should take a look at what you can do with your time if you have any over summer (or you could just donate that paycheck), they also have a place in Venice Beach called 826LA which is closer to us.

Eggers & Thrice are some cool dudes.

You Know Who You Are

Don’t waste your arsenic alibis on me
Don’t drown me in your apathy
Damaged eyes can’t lie
So mine will just sit and spy

I’m crossing my never’s and dotting my goodbyes
Guilt makes me nauseous in the morning
(I still want to wake up next to you)

I cleaned under my fingernails today
Full of skin from your back
When I told you I loved you

Cry at my emotionless face
And Spin this to your taste
Nothing ever felt so cold
Like snow on spring’s doorstep
