Things that are awesome:

Doing a last minute presentation preparation on Nintendo and procrastinating by watching videos of people playing the Wii for the first time. Tee hee. The old Japanese couple is so cute! It's really funny to see how they react to the controller. I want to see my dad play the Wii. That would be hilarious.

Things that are awesome about Ashland, Oregon:

They have a Tree Commission.

Said commission votes on a Tree of the Year.

They had a Car Free Day that encouraged people to seek other forms of transportation apart from cars.

Southern Oregon University has family housing and they define a couple as "two (2) individuals of the opposite or same gender who live together in an intimate, long-term relationship of indefinite duration with an exclusive mutual commitment in which partners share the necessities of life and agree to be financially responsible for each other's welfare, including living expenses."


I want to live there. It is such a cute town.

In today's WTF news:

O.J. Simpson To "Confess"?

In what is shaping up to be another bizarre milestone in the murder case involving O.J. Simpson, Fox announced Tuesday that it plans to air a two-part interview with Simpson on November 27 and 29 (within the November sweeps) in which, according to the Fox news release, he "will tell how he would have committed the murders if he were the one responsible for the crimes." The news release quoted Fox reality chief Mike Darnell as saying, "This is an interview that no one thought would ever happen. It's the definitive last chapter in the Trial of the Century." The person interviewing Simpson has not been identified. The interview is scheduled to air days before Fox's corporate sibling, Harper Collins, publishes Simpson's If I Did It, Here's How It Happened on November 30.

Borat spanked by angry Yank... with a surprise!

If we didn't get along, you would tell me, right?

If I got on your nerves, you would tell me, right?

If we snipped at each other, you would tell me, right?

If I grumbled and was annoying and we argued and were horrible friends, you would tell me, right?

Right?



Because apparently you haven't. And I was. And I'm sorry.

Last night I stayed on campus.

I stayed up all night. Emily, Claire and I watched seasons 1 and 2 of The Office. All night.

We finished just in time for breakfast.

Emily and I took a nap for about an hour and a half.

I am starting to feel tired. I just felt out of it before and I didn't realize how out of touch I was until I drove home. I really shouldn't have been driving.

There's more but I'm tired.

To tomorrow!

Cubs win!
We won! I'm glad my first time voting was this awesome.

And Rumsfeld is gone!

It's like a collective Democratic birthday.

People assume most Christians are heavy-handed, pushy, intolerant bigots bent of dominating any other culture or idea and supplanting it with their own whims because, for the most part, the ones who speak up the most ARE heavy-handed, pushy, intolerant bigots bent on dominating any other culture or idea and supplanting it with their own whims. It sucks. It's horrible. And it's the what everyone of any faith, political idea, or lifestyle has to deal with. People always focus on the loud minority who ruins everything. And like any other group, the only way you can combat this is making your views and, in this case, your kindness and actual testimony louder than the hateful prattle of those hurting your beliefs.

I am beginning to get anxious about leaving this country. I met with some of my fellow France travelers and we were all talking about where we're going to go and what we're going to do. It made me so excited that all I want to do is go now.

:: Music: Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Where Do We Go Now But Nowhere?



Based on my Top 10 Last.Fm chart seen above, I shall endeavor to answer the following questions.

How many times have you seen #4 live?
[Snow Patrol]
Once. It took three rescheduled dates to do it, but Michelle and I finally saw them at Roseland Ballroom here in NYC last month.

What is your favourite song by #7?
[The Beatles]
God, do I have enough choices? If I have to choose just one... Let It Be, I guess.

What is a good memory you have considering the music of #10?
[Johnathan Rice]
Discovering him a couple years back opening for Dido.

Is there a song of #3 that makes you sad?
[Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds]
It doesn't necessarily make me sad, but '(Are You) The One That I've Been Waiting For?' strikes an emotional chord with me.

What is your favourite lyric that #2 has sung?
[Eels]
"Life is hard
And so am I
You'd better give me something
So I don't die"

What is your favourite song by #4?
[Snow Patrol]
Chocolate
(Neener.)

How many times have you seen #9 live?
[Badly Drawn Boy]
None. He was just in town, but unfortunately every other popular music act I enjoy has decided to come during the same two month period, so I've had to pick and choose.

What is a good memory you have concerning #2?
[Eels]
Either of the times I've seen them live (Blind Pig in Ann Arbor or this summer's free outdoor show at the World Financial Center)

What is your favourite album of #5?
[Pink Floyd]
The Wall (favorite album of all-time actually... Dating Game here Michelle comes)

What is your favourite lyric that #3 has sung?
[Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds]
"It ain't that in their hearts they're bad
They'd stick by you if they could
But that's just bullshit
People just ain't no good"
- 'People Ain't No Good' (from 'The Boatman's Call')

What is your favourite song of #1?
[David Gray]
Freedom (from 'A New Day at Midnight')

What is your favourite song of #10?
[Johnathan Rice]
My Mother's Son

How many times have you seen #8 live?
[Foo Fighters]
Twice (Van Andel w/ RHCP & DeltaPlex). Look forward to making it three someday.

What is your favourite album of #7?
[The Beatles]
Can I pick a compilation? 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' I guess.

What was the first song you heard by #8?
[Foo Fighters]
I started listening to FF when I was a wee fetus. Probably something from 'The Colour & The Shape' though... 'My Hero,' perhaps?

So I'm sick or something.

I'm trying to decide whether to go to my last two classes or just the one. Sigh.

I've been watching baby shows all day which made me think about this girl in one of my classes which motives me to buck up and go to the last two.

It also makes me want babies.



I need to get this hygiene stuff under control. I'll just put on my scarf and call it tolerable.
