I hate it when my diary is not saved.  Okay, here goes again.

Julie Retracts Earlier Statements about Wilco’s Suckiness.  As many of you may know, I granted a Yankee Hotel Foxtrot-only reprieve from suckiness to Wilco because, well, that album is a masterpiece.  But that did not excuse Wilco of prior suckiness exemplified as the opening act for REM’s Up Tour at Retama Park Polo Fields or on previous albums owned by my ex-roommate/sometimes psycho Christi.  But I am currently listening to Summerteeth, the 1999 album they were probably playing at said tour and it is good.  Not change your life, make you weep with awe Yankee Hotel Foxtrot good, but good.  Quite good.  Ryan Adams without the shittiness.  So fine, Jeff Tweedy and co, I was wrong, you were right.  You do not suck.  Enjoy it, it doesn’t happen very often.

Hey Julie, I was just wondering what you were doing so I googled you and found my name in your diary. That’s pretty weird. I’m glad you’re finally coming around to Wilco. I hope everything is going well for you.
