"my dreams are like movie stars...they just don't look the same in real life."

i'm not sure what kind of an update this will be. it could go many ways. i'm in a strange mood today.


so, work was fine last night. i blogged a lot. both in here, and on Facebook. the Facebook blogging takes some time, because, when i copy the entries from here, it doesn't copy the pictures. so i have to go into facebook and upload each picture individually.

YEP, that's how much i am committed to the blogging cause. and how much i am dissatisfied with the 'facebook will automatically upload your entries' function.

got home last night around 10pm. (but i was still on shift until 8am.) made some corn bread. i was a bit nervous because all i had was soy milk and no normal milk. but, it came out delish.

then i made an english muffin pizza and that was my dinner! corn bread and english muffin pizza. i was excited about it.

i watched Pirate Radio. which i loved. yep, 5 stars. it made me want to become a Pirate Rock DJ. which would mean that i could listen to music all day AND fulfill my lifelong dream of being a ship captain. brillz.

yeah, i just loved it. it was really funny. great music. GREAT costumes. it's just so much better when people fight back and don't follow the rules.

then i got a really bad headache which was confusing because i hardly ever get headaches. ever. so, at the early hour of 1:30am, i went to bed!!!! yep. i took initiative and went to bed early.

slept from 2am until 7:50am. woke up. still had a headache. gave Ruby some food. took some ibuprofen.

slept from 8am until 10am. woke up. still had a headache.

slept from 10:15 to noon. woke up. still had a headache. still really tired, so,

i slept from noon until 3pm. woke up. headache gone! so i got up.

3pm!! yeah. that was a long sleep. i think it was because i had such bad sleeps the three previous nights. it really felt like i hadn't slept at all.

so, i was glad i had a nice, long sleep last night. but, i wonder why i had a headache for such a long time?

also, one of the times i was falling asleep, i was listening to my lullabies and i thought i heard 'It's Only Wednesday' playing. and i thought, "holy crap did they release a lullaby cd of Crash Kings songs that i downloaded in my sleep!!??" and i seriously got pretty excited. and then i listened closer and realized it was 'Across the Universe' by The Beatles.

great story, eh?

so, i'm pretty annoyed because Paper Tongues announced that they are playing a FREE show in Boston TOMORROW (thursday) NIGHT. did i mention FREE??!? and guess who can't go? ME. i'm working! unreal, right? i'm mad.

because i was thinking that it was so good that i was finally going to start working again, because i have no money and no concerts planned for a little while. AND THEN THIS!!!! and it's even more painful because it's FREE. so, it would have been something i TOTALLY could have done if i wasn't working.

i need a job where i make lots of money and can take unlimited time off. any suggestions? (i'm serious. anybody have a job suggestion for me??)

anyways.

so, i turned on the 'twitter locations' which lets people know where you're tweeting from if you're on a computer. i turned it on before i went to Chicago, because i thought it'd be fun to see all the different places i was.

and then i got home and it said Lebanon, NH, which is right.

but then yesterday, it started doing some amusing where it thinks i am in Ann Arbor, Michigan. i have no idea why it thinks this. and then last night, it said i was in White River Junction, VT, which is a lot closer to where i actually am.

and then today! i'm back in Ann Arbor. so i thought, 'what the heck, i'll make it a fake vaca!' so, i changed it so i was at a sushi place in Ann Arbor. and then i went to an Urban Outfitters in Ann Arbor, which is where i am now.




Ann Arbor is beautiful this time of year!

eh, i think it's funny.

also, this is my horoscope for today:

Your feelings about work and service deepen, and you might find yourself either recommitting to your current situation or looking around for something more in line with your passions.


hmmm. okay. i don't know what i'm going to do this evening.

also, remember when i was driving through Buffalo and the song 'Mexico' came on? and i was really excited? well, now, every time 'Mexico' comes on, i have a little laugh to myself, thinking about that. and then i realized that i have an inside joke with myself. is that pathetic? i can't decide.

i'm thinking about that because 'Mexico' is playing right now.

ALSO: Crash Kings released more New England tour dates!!!!!

- 3 August in Boston, MA
- 4 August in Providence, RI (at Club Hell, where they filmed the movie 27 Dresses!)
- 5 August in Burlington, VT

AND River City Extension released a date:

- 31 July in Sayreville, NJ (at Starland Ballroom, where Ryan and I went to see CK and JET.)

soooo....i really want to go to all those dates.

PLUS:

- River City Extension, 8 August in Boston, MA

PLUS:

- Rooney and Hanson, 23 July in Cape Cod, MA


hmm. what i need to do is this: figure out how i can get paid to go to all of these shows. OR, go to the shows for free.


ok. i have to go. i don't know what i'm going to do now. which seems to be the current theme of my life. great!

hope everyone is having a great day. it's wednesday!


take care.

lately i've been thinking some stability would probably be nice."

  1. Can I may a job suggestion? My impression is not that you don't want to work, instead that you want to travel. So it isn't that you want to work very little and get paid very much, you just need a job that allows you to ramble. If you love it and can take it anywhere you will probably work a lot. You blog a lot. This is why I believe very strongly that you need to become a professional blogger. Then, turn your blog into a book. Which can then be made into a movie. Which surely needs a soundtrack. Perhaps a sequel? This way you can be a writer and you can employ all your friends as writers, actors, musicians, editors, publicists...

  3. Yo, if things go the way I want them to, I will be in Boston/Northeast for the first week of August, and I can pay for gas on all the CK trips and that one RCE one. SO. Keep that in mind.

  4. There was a job advert down here for people to write the bios for dogs and cats that are up for adoption at this one nonprofit in Austin. You get all the info from the foster parents, and then you write a little paragraph explaining how awesome the animal is and why it should be adopted. And you are good at making things sound awesome! So you should do it! But it was a volunteer posish, so I guess it doesn't fufill the "lots of money" thing, huh?

    Also, that picture post with your fake glasses makes me really want some. Then when I want to change into my sexy secret persona, all I have to do is whip out my glasses and POOF. Instant hotness. Like the movie librarian thing, only backwards. Because glasses are hot.
