what up fools. go back to school. currently i am listening to my new mp3 player, courtesy of - you guessed it - beth and kevin! it was actually a really nice graduation gift. when i opened it, i was like, "wow this is great... um... what is it?" it looks like a pager. i hate how things nowadays are so damn small, you need a toothpick to operate the buttons. i understand the whole "compact is best" attitude, but bah. i have wounds from the backseat of my car! there's a damn wire that sticks out of the seat... nicole knows what i'm talking about, it used to attack us when we were little. we cut it down but i guess it grew back! ahh! the caprice is alive! i'm so happy. i guess i forgot what it feels like to be content. but let me tell you, it is an awesome feeling. if you have the means, i highly suggest you take full advantage. and just fucking live, quit that "holding back" shit. just do what feels good (i'm not advocating sex or drugs though, damn kids!). last week, craig and i drove down to akron, oh. we visited our good friend, ashleigh. the road trip was great for our male bonding. we watched monty python and ate dinner at boston market. yahoo! certain people are hot, yay! it's so funny how, when i'm happy, i don't write much. i'm too busy enjoying myself. so, i'm sorry to all of my fans ;-) cuz i know you all check this first thing when you wake up, and right before you go to bed too. i promise kids, i'll write you a book one day, and the laurence vanden boom sarcasm, pessimism, optimism, realism, idealism, innocence, cynicism, blah blah blah will be ever-present, and ya'll can shake your heads and laugh at me. i'm in the mood to write but don't know what to say! that really sucks. cuz i get in moods where i can think of these wonderful subjects and ideas, and yet, can't seem to get them down on paper. what does that mean? you're a natch! you're crazy in the coconut! it's about time i speak out about the song "soot and stars" by the smashing pumpkins. the song, in a word, is amazing. make that, fucking amazing. there's so much about it that makes it beautiful. billy corgan is a musical genius. the melody of the song is so simple, and it never changes throughout the whole song, but that only adds to the energy and emotion that the song provokes. it creates this never-ending sadness and longing and need to crawl up in a ball while you endure the pain and hurt of corgan's 6 minute lament. there's no verse/chorus/verse pattern. it's just the same constant note pattern over and over, and billy keeps spewing out stanzas like it's a poem. i've always loved that about corgan's songs... they read like poems. he's brilliant. the lyrics themselves are the best lyrics i've ever come across in one song. and the way he sings brings everything to life, it makes every word have meaning. it's so honest. it would give the chills to even the hottest hot tamali. do you think i believe it when enrique iglesias whines about being my hero? there was a beautiful thunderstorm tonight. yes, i think natural "disasters" are beautiful. there's something about storms. the way the air turns cool... so slowly and calmly it spreads over the sticky summer heat, bringing with it massive, dark clouds... the raindrops start a light sprinkling, their quiet patter covering the pavement... and then the wind picks up and whips at the tree branches, so easily twisting and bending those monstrous limbs... a burst of lightning lights up the whole sky, the ground, and you can feel it burn a slash through your eyes... the distant sound of diffused thunder rolls in, closer and closer... and then everything explodes... the rain, the lightning, the thunder. storms are one of the main reasons i love life... when i love it.
