    I'm already nostalgiac for 3 weeks ago... Catching hell from other nerds for spreading the link via facebook... Shotgunning PGDs in my kitchen... pulling from my vaporizer (which has a Hold Steady sticker on it) while blasting "Constructive Summer"... Ah, to be young again. (And to not have massiveley complicated feelings about everything concerning this band and album.)
