I've got a monologue of Joe's going around and around in my mind and I'm hoping somebody out there can help me identify it. I first heard it in the mid to late 80's as part of a cassette of Joe's material that was a premium for a KCRW contribution. <br>
<br>(Please forgive the way I'm chopping this up as I describe it, I only remember a few fragments.) <br><br>It is about a young woman who lives alone in the San Fernando Valley, her life there in her small apartment. Her lover and their steamy lovemaking. There is a description of her driving on San Vicente or Montana going toward the ocean to her job in Santa Monica. And a description of her love for pot and how she just wished she didn't smoke so much (that's how it ends). <br>
<br>One gets the impression that she's depressed, and the tone is one of sadness, as I remember it. But being from Joe, it is very rich, both in narrative and the details of her life. <br><br>Does this ring any bells for anybody?<br>
<br>Many thanks in advance,<br>Mike in Seattle<br> <br>
