Elbridge Way
My family was staying at my old house in Palo Alto--the people now living there had nicely left the house to us for the holidays. My mom was loading the last remnants of garage storage and loading them into the car.
I looked through the trunk and found a rack of cassette tapes and CDs among my mother's old cards to her brothers, notes, and photos. The music was all stuff that I had kind of forgotten that I owned, notably my They Might Be Giants Hello Club 1996 CD set with all the CD covers thrown away, a CD single by the Gin Blossoms, and a cassette mix tape with Emo Phillips on it. I was pissed about the Hello Club CD covers, and couldn't decide if I needed to rescue this music detritus or not.
(In real life, I have a Gin Blossoms cassette single, a full-length Emo Phillips cassette tape that Christian gave me in Sudbury, and all my Hello Club CDs still have their covers, especially the one recently signed by Laura Cantrell.)
