Last night I went to see Califone perform the music from their new album "All My Friends are Funeral Singers" which accompanied a movie projected onto a big screen on the stage. You can watch the trailer here. It's about a woman who lives in a big old house with a bunch of ghosts. They help her with her psychic reading business until one day they decide they want to leave the house. They think she's preventing them, but she's so fed up she makes it as easy as possible for them to leave, but they can't seem to get out. I LOVED the music, the movie was great too, but I left before it ended because I wanted to make it to my friend's birthday party (Happy Birthday Caroline!).

I keep missing her parties every year, birthday and otherwise, so I was happy I finally made it to one. And while celebrating with Caroline and seeing Califone were the brightest highlights of the night, I can't forget to mention, not one but TWO friendly cats I saw. One was hanging onto a tree on the sidewalk and letting two friendly pedestrians scratch its back and the other (with a shaved tail with a puffy pom pom of fur on the end) was sitting on a wooden box outside a depanneur letting even more friendly bar hoppers scratch its back. Too cute!
