All these Things That I’ve Done

“If you can hold on, hold on, I wanna stand up, I wanna let go”
-All These Things That I’ve Done, The Killers


This is the song of the day because Brandon Flowers (of The Killers) got hitched to his long-time girlfriend. Sigh. One more tasty celebrity off the market. Not that I was planning on being Mrs. Brandon Flowers or anything.Feeling totally stream on conscious today so here goes.


“I am so much older than I can take, And my affection, well it comes and goes, I need direction to perfection”


Planning on volunteering with my fellow ladies, Eve and (future new roommate!) Nayeli. Should be fun. I’m such a sucker for movies anyway. Clearly my Film degree was well worth it. None of that, “Did I choose the right career path?!?!” Although as of late the last few movies I’ve seen- Must Love Dogs, The Island, Bewitched- have been less than spectacular (but exactly as expected).Today marks the beginning of an all-intensive, non-stop, party weekend with the girls who are visiting from Ottawa. But I’m so old and tired, I need a nap. Who knew at 23 I’d feel like a certifiable adult who wants nothing more than to go home after a long day at work and watch TV and/or have a nap.


“Help me out, Yeah, you know you got to help me out, Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner, You know you got to help me out”


A random pet peeve that I have today is about raspberries. How come everytime I buy raspberries, they’re bad the next day, before I can even eat them? Why can’t someone invent raspberries that are still good by the time I get them home? Someone should look into this.

Feeling very lackluster (do to my company’s spectacular loss at softball last night- We’re lost 8 of 8 games so far! And the score isn’t even close!) Nothing interesting going on here today. Just waiting for the weekend (as opposed to “Workin’ for the Weekend”). Here goes:

OVERRATED: Destiny’s Child. The sum of all parts are not greater than a re-warmed version of TLC or any other random R&B act. But that’s just my totally biased, anti- anything-that’s-not-rock, opinion.
UNDERRATED: The Bravery. Okay, sure they’re new. Rolling Stone said they were the band to watch a while back. But they kind of came and went so far. But they were AWESOME in concert. Especially their cover of the U2 song “An Cat Dubh.”
