here’s your basket of kisses

3 days till I’ll be in New York.

Not permanently, mind you. A short trip. It’s a 2 day thing. Have to be back because one of my buddy’s wives wants him home early.

Can’t talk his way out of it.

I can’t imagine that right now.

I sometimes feel like there’s nothing I need more in this world than a serious relationship. But then there’s times when… i just don’t.

I went to the eye doctor today. He was a new guy. I’m never going back. He was slow, rude, and seemed to lick his chops at the thought of having me come back for an unnecessary followup next week. Fuck. That.

I’ll be following up. With a real eye doctor.

I realize I’m late (like 3 years late) getting on this bandwagon, but I’ve been watching a lot of Mad Men lately. All I know is that I need to buy more suits. And drink more cocktails. And live in a city. That show is great, seriously. Oh and despite what I said earlier, Christina Hendricks needs to marry me right now.

On a completely unrelated note, if this doesn’t make you laugh, then you need to drink more cocktails.

What is any life without the pursuit of a dream?

I like when I sorta forget movie, and then putting it on I’m still able to kinda be surprised when things happen. Not the same surprise as the first time you see it, but still it’s not a movie you’re familiar enough with that you can recite every line. That just happened to me.

Vanilla Sky is one of the greatest movies ever. The ending is almost perfect and it gives me chills every time I see it. Sigur Rós singing The Nothing Song, some of my favorite lines ever.. it all comes together. I think this was when Tom Cruise peaked cuz it has been pretty much down hill since this.

David: Do you remember what you told me once? That every passing minute is a another chance to turn it all around.
Sofía: I’ll find you again.
David: I’ll see you in another life… when we are both cats.

taylorswift

the more i listen to taylor, despite not being a huge fan of any country music with few exceptions, i find her and her songs to be ridiculously charming.

I signed up for last.fm a few weeks back when they started the Xbox 360 preview program with the last.fm integration (friend me!). It’s pretty sweet as an internet radio thing, but after hooking it up with my local library I realized I’m embarrassingly obsessed with Breathe Carolina. Trying to deduce how this happened, I have come to the conclusion that a combination of catchy songs, very short songs (only one song on their first album is over 4 minutes), and the fact they’re on my ipod nano which i rarely change the music on, means that this band is ranked number one with a vengeance on my playlist. So now I have to listen to any band other than them to get them off first place.

what a fucking week

this week has been mostly awful. i’ll write something cryptic about it on a piece of paper and post it here some time. stuff just kept hitting me one after another. i mostly just crawled into a little hole to get away. the let downs continued even today. suffice to say, i did not go to philadelphia.

i thought this was totally cheesy and cute. secondhand serenade is one of my favorite singers. the guy made this video in Microsoft Paint.
