I’m removed in my real life, and unable to express certain things face to face. So I have always found myself in this fantasy world. That’s why I started writing songs and stories from a very young age. I’d much rather walk around anonymously cooking up tales than face the people that I have known forever. Jenny Lewis

Happy 37th birthday, Jenny! 

There are some people I don’t ever wanna see again but if you live where you grew up, you’re running into people constantly. Have you seen Extras? There’s this great line where Ricky Gervais says: ‘That’s another person that I’m gonna put on the long list of people that I will try to avoid for the rest of my life.’ I feel that way about almost everyone.
