I love hearing from readers, not as much as I love wine, but a VERY close second!

Thanks!

drinking a mystery

” my old man holds pencils“?
alex brought this back from quiznos today. the advertising department for this company surely won’t win any awards this year. first the singing freak gerbils– now this. whatever. i will be using it as a joke pencil holder on my desk until further notice.

"everything is illuminated" with hobbity eyes

this film’s strange sense of humor captivated me!

grandfather’s insistence that he is blind despite all evidence to the contrary (he’s the one who drives the heritage tours vehicle) threw me into fits of laughter much to the annoyance of the very loud popcorn man behind me.

favorite line: “many girls want to be carnal with me because i am such a premium dancer,”

depsite all the odd humor i was moved by this movie. someday i want to write something that moves someone as this did me. stop attending bad megaplex movies and go see this so we can discuss.

go. now.

electric youth

when i walked outside this morning i shivered. is it the crisp fall weather or
election day? despite my adverse feelings towards the current administration i remain enthusiastic about the voting process. electricity fills the air.

debbie gibson (guilty pleasure) said it best:

Ho-woah…

Zappin’ it to ya
The pressure’s everywhere
Goin’ right through ya
The fever’s in the air
Oh yeah, it’s there!
Don’t underestimate the power
Of a lifetime ahead

Electric youth
Feel the power, you see the energy
Comin’ up
Coming on strong
The future only belongs
To the future itself/in the hands of itself
And the future is
Electric youth
It’s true you can’t fight it
Live by it
The next generation…

It’s electric

tears without fears–shameless girl sap


girlfriends. you know who you are. what would i do without all of you? fantastic shopping pals. therapists for the mere price of a sbux latte. i have been blessed with the best girls. they are kind and beautiful women. each in their own way. they hold you and let you cry when your heart is sad. they send you books and treats when your heart is broken. they fly to town for your birthday. you know you will see them again but until then you miss a little part of yourself. when you drop them off at the airport you cry and can not drive away.

thank you.

music by asphyxiation

my brother and i attended the bright eyes concert last night at kingsbury. it was a good night of hipster watching and musical genius. as tim stated, “the room was full of future gay.com-ers”.

first band–will mason—acoustic and simply fantastic, not to mention he was a cutie.

second band—sons and daughters of blah blah–the music starts. the lead singer has what we think is a seizure, why is no one calling the paramedics? oh my. she is dancing. i guarantee you this band has the best drugs. but–isn’t there something odd about trying to strangle yourself and your band mates on stage with your mic cord? i certainly think so.

when bright eyes came onto stage it was all worth it. amazing. the set started off with a solo harp and finished off with such madness the keyboard fell off the stage. musical goodness ever after.
