In other news, there is a bat inside my office today. This is the second time this has happened. We named him Barack. I hope I don't see him again. We lost track of him this morning. I guess I should turn up my music (new My Morning Jacket) to scare him away. Oy.

Mixed Nuts

Most of my days go something like this:

6. snooze, snooze, snooze. shower. music. hair & makeup. somedays i make coffee. brianna comes over around 730am and i drive us to work. she hops out in Oakland. i get to work on-time-ish. 8. hi chuck. clean up. get the joint ready for the day. wait til the losers go upstairs and chuck and i have an omelet party. eggs & salsa. the today show. ellen. the view. i make tea & lemonade. bon appetite. 12. i turn off the oven. good food & a little cup of water. bye chuck. invoices. various other projects. snacktime-usually a nut party, sometimes just a cup of coffee. 3. empty the dishwasher & wrap silverware. more projects. lead generation or whatever. 4. dump coffee & other drinks. shark. rush hour. 5. thai or c.f. or shade or harris with bob. martini or pinot grigio. home. 9. 30 rock. flight of the conchords. lights out meatball.


There is a light that never goes out.
Get it out of my head. I might be in trouble.

June is the wrong month for a wedding!! It's October! October is when YOURE supposed to get married!! You told ME that! Remember?!?!?!?!?

Call me Clem. And I would erase the first one and the real one and all of you.

"driving in your car/i never never wanna go home/i havent got one"

It's not nice to go around leaving notes on people's porches. Wouldn't you want one though? I haven't got a porch. Or even a window frame.

I am quite sure that the last thing I will ever think will be "this is it..."
But that won't be it. It occured years ago. That was the day it turned into an acorn.

2012. ha.

Divine

This might be the coolest thing I have EVER come across! This French guy wrote this song...this video is AWESOME! And i think it's funny/pretty cool that the word 'chivers' is slang for "young hip musician" (according to the french, at least).
This is the perfect way to start the weekend.
Merci, Sebastien et les autres Katies qui m'aider trouver la chanson!!!

Divine by Sebastien Tellier

No no no no no no no
I’m looking for a band today
I see the Chivers anyway
Through my eyes
Oh oh oh
I . . . I’m alone in life to say
I love the Chivers anyway’
Cause Chivers look divine
Look away
They try to find the Milky Way
They love to drink it every day
No no no no no no no
Toi et moi, c’est comme tu sais
Comment mon coeur a succombé
You look fine
Oh oh oh
I . . . I’m alone in life to say
I love the Chivers anyway’
Cause Chivers look divine
Look away
They try to find the Milky Way
I’m . . . I’m alone in life to say
I love the Chivers anyway
In your eyes
Oh oh oh
I’m looking for a band today
I see the Chivers anyway
I’ll be a Chivers guy some day
In my mind





* Chivers is a slang term for a hip young musician

I Love AVClub

I asked a question.
Someone called "pur rage" answered with,
""Ennui" could work. Some sort of lethargic existential crisis, anyway."

I said,
"Yes. Those words work."

Dipshits

I would love for someone to explain to me the general rationale behind former Hillary supporters opting to vote for McCain over Obama. I do not understand this. Not one little bit.

Dummy

Some days I am excellent at self-restraint. Other days I might as well be Courtney Love. I did not recieve "class clown" in high school (obviously my greatest-most dubious-achievement) because I am funny. I earned that on the basis that I am the only girl in my class who let the crazy shit fly. Not normal crazy girl bullshit. Weird, eccentric STUPID words. Things that one should keep to oneself. Things about vikings or cranberry cars or pigeons. basically the kind of off the wall shit I write here and in the real books. my point is that today my censor was broken. and i mumbled things. and now i feel like an idiot. what else is new?
i dont think ive ever been so bored.
