Grown Ups. Or Friends in Low Places.

Chris — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 17:13:18 +0000

I've known these people since I wondered what it would be like to be grown up. From the left:

Jennifer: Met in 1994. It was Jennifer's 17th birtday, and I was dating her best friend. We sang happy birthday to her at her doorstep. I think I've been at most of Jennifer's birthdays since then as well. And yes, I do remember thinking: Hey that chick is pretty cute.

Earnest: Met in 1991. We were shooting this PSA about teen drinking. We used my Grandma's VHS camcorder. Edited in camera, I'm pretty sure. Funny that even then we were making movies about helping people.

Whitney: Met in 1993. I don't remember exactly how, but I know it would have been in the greenroom or the scene shop in theatre. We became friends pretty quickly, all of us driving around town doing wild and rebelious things like sneaking out to see plays. Going to the downtown library.

Songlet: Growin' Up

I wanted to write a whole song but being a single parent while Geoff is off gallivanting in Austin has made it difficult to find time to write. But I have some lyrics to share:

Cause me and MTV we are the same age
and we both have got some growing up to do
and I've been trying to put us on the same page
bet I never do

There's a series of explanations
a host of holy things
that will get right to the bottom
of our adolescent dreams
when you're staring out the window
but nothings looking back your way
you gotta get up, react move along
before you chose to stay
