perfect

I decided I wanted some beer tonight. I didn't have any in the house so I decided to get some when I went out to get pizza. Usually I wouldn't, I'd just say forget it and not drink but tonight I went for it. I think this was the best decision I've ever made. Really. In my life. I'm sitting outside with my laptop (thanks, RH, you rock!) drinking beer and listening to music. It's breezy and wonderful.
Life is good.

So.

What do you think of this email I just got?

yoda. that was a quote from yoda.

stupid.

Ok, so it was Yoda.

It could have been Gandhi.

I could roof a house.

For Sunday

The previous post was ineffective.

I am Mr. Grumpypants today.

Or I guess, Mrs. Grumpypants.

Whatever.

For Saturday

They sent this home from my son's pre-school yesterday.


Sing a Song of Sunshine
(sung to the tune of Sing a Song of Sixpence)

Sing a song of sunshine
Be happy every day
Sing a song of sunshine
You'll chase the clouds away
Be happy every moment
No matter what you do
Just sing and sing and sing and sing
And let the sun shine through!

Lost

Has anyone seen my camera? I can't find it.

I just want to say

Valdi, I saw you at the gas station this morning and I'm more than a little offended that you didn't say hello.

See, I can be cool, too.

Pigeon Hole

I was thinking about what Kunstemaecker said in his last comment about my taste in music. I don't think my musical taste is that easy to categorize, really. I do tend to lean towards the "guy with a guitar" sound but I branch out at times. Yesterday on my way home from work I listened to underground hip hop for the first half then switched CDs to the Ramones. On my way to meet Duckie I listened to G Love then Erasure, and on the way to the Rufus Wainwright/Ben Folds concert I listened to some sweet mixes, which I can't WAIT to get. (hurry, Duckie)

Ben Folds kicked complete and total ass last night. He is so fucking cool I can't even describe it. I am a major fan for life now. And did you know Rufus Wainwright is gay?

Meme me.

Kerouaced chose me to continue this meme.
Meme.
I'm supposed to list the five songs I'm most into right now. I have added links for you to download if you are so inclined. I can't guarantee that this will work, but I tried. That's worth something, right?

1. Baby Got Sauce, G Love
I put this one up for you guys to hear. Really though, how could you NOT like this song?

2. You're Beautiful, James Blunt
This one is sad, but really cool. A big thank you to Kerouaced himself for introducing me to this.

3. Wanna Be, Luce
You could say I'm into these guys because I just saw them in concert. You could say that. But you'd be wrong. They're just really good.

4. The theme song from the Courtship of Eddie's Father
Simply because I woke up with this song in my head. I tried to give it away to Duckie but he somehow turned it into the Partridge Family theme song. I must have my best friend on my mind.

5. So What Could I Do?, the Cranebuilders
Just listen to it. Ok?

another quickie

I saw a licence plate on my way to work this morning that said:

2GRLSN♥

I kid you not.

Learn from it

When I was a junior in high school I thought it was so cute how my boyfriend would take his phone off the hook when I was there. "Oh how sweet he is, he doesn't want to be interrupted" I'd think, letting him pull me down onto his bed.

It wasn't until we broke up that I realized he was only doing it because he knew that at some point one of his whores would call and he didn't want to get busted.

I need an analogy

Chicken commented that since I like G Love and Jack Johnson, she can assume I like Ben Harper as well. Well, yes, of course I do, but I need help with something. I started to write "G Love, Jack Johnson, and Ben Harper go together like...." but I couldn't finish it. I can think of plenty of them for two's like peanut butter and jelly or peas and carrots or Jack and Coke. I can't think of one for the three of them though. Can one of you guys help me out?

Jack Johnson

There is a palm tree on 880 in Oakland that doesn't belong there. It's completely out of place there on the side of the freeway. Someone told me about that tree once. I saw it yesterday on our way up to Berkeley for the Jack Johnson concert. The concert was cool, nothing too exciting. He plays beautifully, the music is great, but there's not much of a show, if you know what I mean. And I think you do. (wink wink)

My favorite part was when G Love came up to play. That guy can play the harmonica like there's no tomorrow. My sister just burned me a CD of his music. It's called Pretty Much the Best G Love Mix Tape Ever Made. It goes well with my Pretty Much the Best Mix Tape I Ever Made CD and my Almost As Good As the Best Mix Tape I Ever Made CD's parts one and two. (is this making any sense to anyone other than me and Duckie?)


We made it to the Greek Theater just fine, thanks to my superior sense of direction. We got lost leaving, of course. Finally made it to a freeway, headed the wrong way.... (not my fault)
Turned around, found our way back to 880, again thanks to my skills. We passed an accident on the way home, it was pretty bad. A smashed up car and an SUV was upsidedown in the middle of the freeway. We drove past and quietly thanked Soph for being the designated driver. I have a question, why is Jack in the Box so god damned slow with the food? I have never been to a Jack in the Box that gets your order together fast. I really, really wanted those Cheddar Bacon Potato Wedges. Bastards. You have a line in the drive-thru at 12:30am, trust me when I say every person in that line is drunk and starving. Move it along, guys.

This came up in conversation recently, I've been meaning to ask.


Who do you think would win in a fight, Jack Johnson or Xavier Rudd? I think Jack Johnson is a little more athletic, being a surfer and all. Plus, Xavier is definitely a lover not a fighter. He could use the didgeridoo as a weapon though, maybe bash Jack in the head with it? Jack would have G Love to back him up though. I just can't decide. What do you guys think?

Tonight I celebrate my love for Luce

(I just looked at the clock and it says 10:10)

I went to see Luce at Music in the Park tonight. I had to blog about it, couldn't wait until tomorrow. It was really fucking good. The music was great, the beer was so-so, the company was awesome. Even though the poster was sub-par, I still had a great time.


This is Tom Luce, the lead singer. I think his full name is Hot Tom Luce, I'm not sure about that though. I choose to believe this is true.

He doesn't smile much.

That doesn't make me like him any less.





I asked him to sign my OCD notebook. Well, I couldn't exactly ask him to sign the bootleg copy of their first CD that I had in my backpack, now could I? He asked about the writing in the notebook. I told him those were the words of the day that I liked the most. I'm into vocabulary. I don't know how he felt about that.




The bass player was very chill. This is the look he had on his face the entire concert. I liked it.

I kinda want to be his friend.








For some reason I felt compelled to take a picture of these girls' asses. They are just very amazing to me.

Would you agree?






Jesus made an appearance. He hasn't been seen around San Jose since last July...










And after the show, Terra and I had some fun with these glasses. These were supposed to be a present for Duckie, but Terra and I decided we're going to keep them and every time we go out we're going to make some random person put them on for a picture. Sorry, Duckie.





That's it. I need to go to sleep now. Jack Johnson tomorrow.

TV Guide crossword puzzle

Number 51 across is NOT cop a feel.
It's cop a plea.

Jeez.

you are teh lame

This red Protege was in front of me this afternoon. The licence plate said "HRTB8KR". Now, don't you think this is a little retarded? Is she trying to say Heart Breaker? Because she's pretty far off the mark on that. It says Heart Bateker. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe she means something entirely different and I'm just not seeing it. Oooh, maybe it says Heart Bait Ker. I bet it's for you, Kerouaced. Also, her license plate frame says "Scorpio Queen. Watch out, I sting!" with the exclamation mark and everything. So, Ker, don't say I didn't warn you.

I love TV Guide

I was reading the TV Guide article about the Beatles concert at Shea Stadium when a Beatles song came on the radio. Goocher, huh? I got the Paul cover, in case you were wondering. I also read that Spike will be playing a part on Smallville next season. As Cat would say: wooty-woot! I'm excited to see him again. It's been so long, Spike. So very long.

Of course, he'll be no match for Clark. Of course. I mean, look at him. Aside from the make-up, he's a rugged speciman, isn't he?

and Clark always gets the bad guys.

I wish I was a bad guy.

It puts the "fun" in "functional"

It's guaranteed to turn heads in any office space.
