<\/a>First, i was wandering through Amoeba Records buying downtempo. I decided i needed to get out of the downtempo section because i am not allowed to purchase more CDs than i can carry. Wandering around, waiting for my friends, i asked the information person if early releases of Ani’s new album. No luck. No worries.<\/p>\nTonight, i arrived home to a package from Scot Fisher (the head of Righteous Babe). Inside was a copy of the album and a handwritten note suggesting that i might appreciate this. I was totally taken aback with deep appreciation and love. I’ve been hosting the lyrics site<\/a> for so many years kind of tangentially to RBR. To be acknowledged just felt so heartwarming.<\/p>\n ….<\/p>\n This morning, she called me. It had been months. She told me that she did all of these interviews with trans women and had written an amazing piece for the V-Day Los Angeles all-trans cast production<\/a>. I cried. I honored her. I shared my love, my appreciation.<\/p>\n If you haven’t ever seen “The Vagina Monologues” you must. Go to a V-Day near you. It’s V-Season.<\/a><\/p>\n![](\"http:\/\/www.vday.org\/static\/presskit\/logo_white_back.gif\"){kind=logo}
<\/a>Last night, i was addressing all of these pent up emotions and Eve kept coming into my head. She used to tell me that crying was a wonderful release and it’s good for me. I miss her dreadfully and realized it had been a long time since we talked. But i channelled her and let out my tension, as hard as that is for me. Tears of joy, tears of release. And into the world, i sent my love towards Eve.<\/p>\n
