you think it's funny, well you're drowning in it too...

HEY Y'ALL. first of all, i would like to laugh at mel gibson for getting a DUI. according to an article i read, he drunkenly proclaimed himself as the "king of malibu", which is the funniest part of the whole thing. and really, do you think alcohol planted raging anti-semitic thoughts in his head? yeeees, that must be it. what a fool.

anyways, my dear friend jill came to visit this weekend, and we had a completely fantastic time. this included running in the pouring rain through downtown nashua, a trip into boston complete with a pervy/corny street magician, hip hop dancers, and being assigned by the commuter rail conductor to keep an eye on this creepy man who kept switching seats and begging people for money.

we also watched about 260 hours straight of project runway season 2 (ok, no, but we really watched the whole entire season) and it was brilliant. i am eager to see the scandal tomorrow night. it better be angela...what a ho. christine and her sister lauren now come over every single wednesday, and we alternate between "so you think you can dance?" and "rock star: supernova" results, then proceed to eat delicious food and throw things at the tv during project runway. it's a glorious, lazy, evening.

boston is drawing nearer, though it hasn't quite hit me yet. i also keep forgetting that i'm actually going to have to do SCHOOLWORK, which is so terribly inconvenient. god, i just want to eat canolis and frolic on boston common.

i love the new hellogoodbye album and hate the new thunderbirds are now! album. what is going on in the world?! i basically hate all current music lately which is weird. my playlist last month consisted of the song "no excuses" by alice in chains, and constant nirvana. i don't even know. speaking of which, i'll end with the video for "no excuses", which is nothing special but an amazing song.

Dear Mel Gibson,

WHAT WERE YOU THINKING? How could a man who gave such a brilliant performance in "the man with no face" (or something along those lines) be such a baffoon? Funny story, Mel, every high-powered movie executive is Jewish. The only work you're going to get is a cameo in some dumbass ABC Family movie.

Hate,

Amanda

oh man, i just read your post, and i think i do agree to an extent- it's just that, i mean- the man IS in the public eye (like, REALLY in the public eye) and he should be somewhat more wary than others of how he conducts himself since he knows for sure that everyone is going to find out about it. sigh, such is the life of a celebrity.

oh, and amanda, that hate letter made my day. you should consider sending it to the man.

you are not a terrible person, no big deal!! haha. again, we really need to work on this hobo/groupie thing. it could work. i'm hoping some great song comes out soon, but i'm not hearin' it.

About your music problem: This could be the beginning of the end. You're not a teenager anymore. New bands don't excite you like they used to. You lose touch with the current music scene. You stop downloading new stuff. You play Nevermind for the millionth time and complain that there's nothing good out today. You stop being modern and head into a downward spiral of nineties nostalgia. Before you know it, you're 70 years old and your grandkids laugh at you when you try to tell them that Rooney was the best band of all time.



KIM! You must not have that fate. Stay current! There IS good new stuff out there!!

the sad thing is, my recent symptoms COMPLETELY fit that description. but i found a song that may have saved me...actually, a few. i'm slowly climbing back up from the mid-90s.

p.s. rooney is the best god damn band of all time, godddd. jk. but only slightly.
