She would go to Memphis and this was after our divorce. And I would send her to Memphis to be with him.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You don't particularly want to stay close to your ex-wife. Or why would she be your ex-wife?
My wife is a writer. She grew up in Alaska. She told me she was moving to Boulder and that I could come with her if I wanted to. We were married at the time, so I chose to come with her.
When he came back from downtown, he had forgotten to bring his license, his identification, the $2 for the wedding license. So we got married two days later.
I would make tea for Joni Mitchell or clean her car, anything to be in the studio and watch her work.
If PJ Harvey ever came to town I'd definitely go try to go see her.
I'd been to Memphis before, but we stayed out of Memphis early on in the late 70s for obvious reasons. People were very sensitive about Elvis Presley, and my stage name obviously would be provocative to some people in that area at that time.
I might run from her for a thousand years and she is still my baby child. Our love is so furious that we burn each other out.
I would go home and be this insular girl who listened to music and brooded in her bedroom.
I'll stay in Memphis.
Let the wife make the husband glad to come home, and let him make her sorry to see him leave.
