lazy monday

i just had two cups of coffee and killed a disc of Entourage. it's the life.

i slept in pretty late. i won't tell you just how late. but, it was late. in total i got about 13.5 hours of sleep. now, i know that sounds like a lot. but, i only got 3 hours of sleep the previous night. so really, it was justified.

and last night i was awoken with a phone call, the house alarm going off, my alarm going off (turned it off and went back to sleep), and Ruby Tuesday licking my face because she wanted me to feed her. i did get up and feed her because i knew if she kept licking my face then i would get hives. so, i got up and fed her, and then somehow found my way back to bed and fell right back to sleep.

13.5 hours is not the most i've ever slept. that would probably be my second year of college when i slept straight through for 15 hours.

but, i was remembering the time that i went to bed at 5:30am, woke up at 5:30pm, and couldn't figure out whether or not it had been 12 hours or 12 seconds. that was a freaky experience. it took me like, half an hour to realize that it was 12 hours later. everything was exactly the same as when i had gone to bed. the sky looked the same. there was nobody around. it was a weird time.

anyways.

i came home from work yesterday and watched Shopgirl. my friend Jenn had been facebook statusing about watching Shopgirl and then i decided that i hadn't seen it in a long time. so, i went to my DVD collection and pulled it out. and made a sandwich and watched it. man, i really enjoyed it. i enjoyed it much more than i anticipated.

which brings me to my next topic,

'why isn't jason schwartzman in every movie?'

let's discuss. he really should be. and i can't think of any reason why he isn't in every movie. he's so enjoyable to watch on screen. he has a pleasant voice. he's funny. he's a hottie.

when i become president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, i just might make a new entertainment law stating that he must be involved with the making of every movie. he could do the music! because he's such an awesome musician!

OH! i must tell you this exciting thing. after years and years of wanting and wishing, i am FINALLY able to have West Coast as my ringtone!!!!!! on my new way-cool phone!! i wasn't able to put custom ringtones on my old phone anymore because that option was discontinued due to the age of the phone. and, the phone did not have internet access, therefore i could not go online and download it.

and once i figured out how to make my own ringtones, West Coast was the first one i made. only three people have called me since, but i'm still excited about it.

i guess i'll take this moment to promote Coconut Records. Coconut Records is Jason's solo band, which totally rocks. i bought his first CD "nighttiming" immediately after finding out about this band. it was an exciting night. i remember it very clearly. i was at home in maine, sitting at the kitchen table with my laptop. man, those downloads couldn't have been going slower. i was so freaking exciting.

and what a great CD! really awesome. i think one of the songs is on a commercial. 'Summer Day', i think. and, 'West Coast' is featured in the movie Cloverfield. now, i didn't rent the movie just to hear the song (i've done this before), but you should. it's a good movie. better than i thought. and it was hyped up by Maria a lot. so, i had pretty high expectations. i thought it was good. and, West Coast is in it, which automatically made me like it even if i didn't really like it. it's the song playing at the party in the beginning when everything is still good. notice it.

Coconut Records' second CD, Davy was released this past winter. again, a very exciting day once i was finally able to buy it. it took longer because cash has been tight this year. i don't think i actually bought it until april. WOW. if i thought the first cd was good, all expectations were blown out of the water for Davy. it is stellar. i love every song. definitely a stronger album. i really like, 'St. Jerome' and 'Drummer.' and, 'Microphone,' of course. the music video for Microphone is pretty hilarious.

wow, you all should really go out and buy 'Davy.' for realz. such a great CD.

now let's talk about Funny People. i think it comes out on friday. hm. now, we all know that i'm not a fan of Judd Apatow. but, i am a fan of Jason. i think i've seen all his movies. have i? i think i have. it's a gamble on this one. Apatow v. Schwartzman.

OH! let's get back to Jason and his musical career. YOU MUST hear the songs he's collabed with Ben Lee on!!!!! oh, they are wonderful. now, i'm going out on a limb here, but i believe it's 'Close I've Come' and 'Light' from Ben Lee's album 'Awake is the new Sleep.' anyone know if this is right? i feel like i knew it at one point. Jason, are you reading this!?? is that right?

*off topic, but kind of not really* one of the best concerts i've ever seen was Ben Lee and Rooney in boston. for serious. whenever i think about my concert going times, i always think about that concert and how fierce Rooney was.


i also think about Ben Lee wearing that gold sparkly jacket.


and how Robert Schwartzman sang right to my heart. bunch of hotties. i just started following Rooney on Twitter and you should too. i think Coconut Records was my first "follow." folks, i'm a devoted fan and promoter!

somebody should really talk to me about representation. i could turn anyone famous with this blog. except myself....apparently. hm.

and one of the best birthday gifts i've ever received was my Coconut Records totebag i got from Kara. and, it's the best totebag i've ever had. if anyone out there is thinking of buying a Coconut Records bag, do it. a great investment for the future. i use it for groceries, i use it for a purse, i use it for my laptop, for the safe transportation of anything, really.

i wish i could keep talking about Coconut Records. i will later. but right now, i have to get to the grocery store before it closes and before i have to start working. i need lettuce and it cannot wait. i'm sure you understand.

we'll talk later. i had fun writing this. hope you enjoyed reading and listening and looking. you should really click on those links. i think you'll like Jason's music. it's hip and fresh and summery.

and! it really all comes full circle, because i began this entry talking about Entourage, which we all know is produced by Mark Wahlberg. and, he was in I Heart Huckabees with Jason. that's a great movie.

i love when things come full circle.

what a great day!!
