1. i am currently holed up with a totally sa-weet sore throat. it's pretty awesome. i sound like godzilla from those old japanese movies. you know the ones where they build a replica of tokyo and then take a toy dinosaur and tear it all down? yeah. that godzilla. i went to an orientation session to be a big sister today, and i revealed in the icebreaker that i play ukulele. the orientation leader asked if i sing as well. i didn't know if she was kidding or not (because i seriously sounded like i had just drug my vocal chords through a limestone quarry) so i simply replied, "not today." i'm also having a lot of trouble sleeping. hence the blogging at 1 am. hopefully this thing clears up soon. it's a good excuse to drink delicious earl grey black tea, though. i try to take my illnesses sunny side up.
2. i'm going to a ben folds concert soon. it'll be my second. the first was so much fun. ben has a tremendous stage presence and makes everyone feel like he's singing just for them (this could be why he's almost constantly on tour). so i'm pretty excited. i just got his latest album and i'm pleasantly surprised by how much i like it. my favorite tracks are "dr yang", "bitch went nuts" and "effington"... "are they effing in their yards, effing in their cars?" hilarious. ben has some stellar lyrics.
3. my housemate is currently in one of her moods where she pretty much ignores me. it's fun...i feel like i live with a ghost. half the time i'm wondering where she is, and the other half of the time she's treating me like i'm an intruder in her house. i hear her voice and laughter wafting from her bedroom as she talks on the phone every night. if i do see her, it's barely a glimpse before she's gone, locked in her room again or leaving the house to go who knows where.
i wish she would tell me if something is wrong or if she's upset with me. i don't expect her to be all happy and sparkly - that's definitely not who she is. all i would like is a normal relationship....one where she doesn't shut me out and tells me how her day was, or wants to know how i'm doing. i always feel like i'm on eggshells and my toes are getting tired. but i don't know if i should confront her or leave her to decide when she wants to talk to me. i feel like i'd be making a mistake either way i go about it.
4. this is something i came across while browsing victoria's secret's latest catalog. w...t...f.
there is nothing sexy or alluring about these pants. nothing whatsoever, unless you went back in time to the 1890's, when it was considered scandalous to show your ankles. oh you bad kitten! seriously, victoria's secret? did you actually expect to sell these? i have noticed that the 80's are making a comeback, but that was honestly one of the worst decades in fashion. acid wash jeans, shoulder pads, and these pantaloons must be left in the past. dredging up old mistakes is not fashionable, people! revolt against the so-called powers that be! don't wear these because someone tells you that they're in style! only buy these if you can't live without them! and even then may the style gods be merciful as these pants don't even look flattering on a professional, stick thin, gorgeous model! listen to edna mode. "i never look back, darling, it detracts from the NOW." that is all i have to say about that.
