Nouvelle Vague - Ever Fallen in Love

Puked up most of my dinner tonight. Never eating that much again. Ugh.

Belle and Sebastian - Another Sunny Day

Nouvelle Vague - Heart of Glass

I wanna get the fudge outta Florida!! About 10 weeks before that becomes a possiblity. Let the countdown begin.

I used to...

When I was younger and a bit shorter I used to do this. Sometimes I find that I still have to, but only to get stuff from the top shelves.

Last night...

I had the weirdest nightmare. I don't even really remember the whole nightmare, but in part of it there were two deer in my bed. They had apparently come in through my open window. We startled them out of my room and followed them through the house and they disappeared. In another part of the dream I was staring out of my window and saw a family at my neighbors house eating dinner. There was a lady with white hair staring occasionally at me when she ate, as if she knew I was there, in my dark room, watching.
I don't remember the rest of the dream, but it was weird. It wasn't even that scary, just weird and it made me feel watched. I woke up at like 4, grabbed my blanket, and ran to my parents room and asked them if I could sleep with them. They obviously said yeah and I slept dreamless for the rest of the night. I wonder how many other 21 year olds run to their parents' rooms when they have bad dreams.

Is it possible..

to be full but hungry at the same time? Because I am really hungry, but the thought of eating is making me nauseous. But I want to eat. Fudge, man.

I think I will eat.

Toni Wine - A Boy Like You

Six months down. Three more to go.

The coolest thing...

about this blog is going back to the very first posts and reminiscing about certain events. It's cool that by looking at an old post, I am able to remember exactly what I did that day, where I went and who I spent time with.

The White Stripes - Hypnotize

Elvis Presley - They Remind Me Too Much Of You

Remember Then - The Earls

Chicken Shower

This is how my chickens shower. They roll around in a whole bunch of dirt. I love watching them.

Who Put the Bomp - Barry Mann

Darling bomp, bah, bah bomp
bah bomp, bah bomp, bomp.
And my honey
rama lama ding dong forever.
And when I say dip, da dip
da dip, da dip
You know I mean it
from the bottom of my
boogity, boogity, boogity shoo.

The Proclaimers - What Makes You Cry?

Woodwaaaaaaaaad:

Where doing laundry is no longer a chore, it is an adventure!

Once again realizing how much I miss it at camp. If someone told me I had an hour to pack my bags and get to the airport, to board a plane to California,  to live and work at camp, I would do it in a heartbeat. I wouldn't need to be told twice. I'd shove all my important stuff in a suitcase and be out the door in maybe twenty minutes.

I miss almost everything at that place. I miss how things you view as a chore in your everyday life become an adventure at camp. Take doing laundry for instance. At home I do laundry because I have to. If I don't, I don't have clothes to wear. It's tedious and uneventful and I don't take a nice trip in a car or get food in the process. At camp, laundry day is fun. I do laundry every week even if I don't really need to. I go into town with whoever's going, get to listen to music with the windows down for a nice car ride, get to eat Little Caesers or Hungry Howies or pho or chinese or ice cream or City Slickers or something from Albertsons or Savemart, get to hang out at the laundromat reading magazines or the local paper, get to watch a movie if no one has to be back at camp for a shift. Grocery shopping is fun, too! Walking aimlessly around the store grabbing snacks you want, but definitely don't need, is fun. Last summer I talked a little bmx camper's parents to give me a ride into town to get rice cakes, water, and candy. Stashing food in your room is acceptable and encouraged. Sleeping is even fun, because you get to sleep in a bunk. Staying up late is fun because you almost always have someone else that is staying up late or doing something or going somewhere [like Denny's or Del (SWELL) Taco]. Going to the thrift stores and buying stuff you don't need is fun. Talking to strangers in town is fun. Going to 'work' is fun. Going to breakfast, lunch and dinner is fun because you always know what you're eating, when you're eating, know you'll never eat alone and can eat as much as you want.

Life is fun at camp.

I love this kid.

My brother will text me, from the next room, until I make him what he wants to eat.

Zac Brown Band - Keep Me in Mind

I've been looking for someone like you to save me
Life's too easy to be so damn complicated
Take your time and I'll be waiting
Keep me in mind
Somewhere down the road you might get lonely

Alberto: I just like hitting you. I don't know why. I like hitting your mane. (Whack)

Watching a person, that has mental issues, try to live their daily life is so hard. You don't understand why they do certain things or feel a certain way and neither do they. You can't do anything to help them and neither can they. They depend on you, even when you want to depend on them. Fudge, man.

Joshua Radin - I Missed You

Holy Babe-ness.

So, so, so
What I need to know, know, know
is when I get home, home, home
will you still be there?
I've been around the way
been around, but not okay,
cause I missed you so.
I'm coming home
just to let you know
that I missed you.
Every crowd I see your face .
I keep looking, just in case.
It's all perfect but there's something out of place.

The Proclaimers - I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)

Mrs. Brown: Ms. Rivera, you better stop talking to Mr. Smith. Once that phone rings, he'll drop you like a hot potato.

Never knew he was holding me, lady.

Toothless

This used to be one of my favorite movies when I was little...HA! I mean younger. I watched it I think twice when it played on the Disney channel and then they changed around their whole programming and started playing crummy movies. I think they should bring back all the old movies. For some reason I was thinking about this movie today. I ended up watching it. I just finished. I have to finish a rough draft for a paper by tomorrow and all I have done is my thesis. It is 3:25 in the morning and the paper has to be 1000-1500 words.
I am screwed. Very screwed. At least I had a good time watching a good movie. Cool, right? Who needs sleep?!

Bonnie Tyler - It's a Heartache

Not Again...

Well, I hurt my knee again. I bet whoever reads this dumb blog is sick of hearing that. If you are, I'm sorry, but it's happened again. I went to Metro today and on a baby mini ramp I hurt my knee bailing out of a tail stall. How does that happen? I haven't a clue. All I know is I was stepping off my board, my knee cracked and bent all weird and then I was on the ground writhing in pain. Sucks. I miss my knee and the way it used to work.

Here's some clips I took while complaining about my leg. Enjoy. Or don't. It's your call. If you decide you want to watch crummy cell phone clips, it's Ian and Iaasac skating the baby mini.

Feeling a little caged in.
