i had this dream last night where i ran into this kid in the local bar who was like "oh yeah i'm into that whole mastodon thing" and i said well, some of my neighbors are real movers & shakers, you want an introduction, and then we went back to my place and i introduced him to @djsundog who was grilling in the yard across my fence.
(i think basically in this dream-logic schema, mastodon consisted of the houses on this block and the one over.)
