It's a Jimmy Eat World "Futures" kind of day.
"You say that love goes anywhere
In your darkest time, it's just enough to know it's there" - Polaris
"I know what you want to say
I know it but can't help feeling differently
I loved you, and I should have said it" - Kill
"Could it be that everything goes 'round by chance?
Or only one way that it was always meant to be?" - Kill
Why do just small snipets of songs get totally bored into your brain, and repeat endlessly all day? Astonishingly, I didn't mind the repetition of these lyrics one bit today, because I really love Jimmy Eat World.
I got my hair cut today during my break from work, and man alive does it smell fantastic. I've been sniffing myself all day. I doubt anyone would ever notice the cut (as I only got two inches off), but they'll subconciously notice that my hair looks better, because the ends are so neat, and I have pretty sweet long layers giving me a bit of style. I get so vain about my hair after a haircut, even a trim. And the hairdresser doesn't help. Theresa is always telling me what a beautiful color my hair is and how healthy it is for such long hair because of how easily it combs through etc. I'm sure she compliments all her customers' hair, but still. I felt rather proud of my tresses.
I sent Will corrections to his story last night, and chatted giving constructive criticism for at LEAST an hour. I enjoyed that because I felt helpful. I have found a use for all the seemingly useless information I've stored in my head from reading fantasy! I told him he'd unconciously borrowed one of the names of his cities from a port city in the Dragonlance Chronicles. Who else could catch such mistakes but a nerd like me?
Speaking of Nerdy fantasy, I started to say to myself, "REALLY Amy? Really? you're one of these people? Eh, ok," because today I bought the third book of the Mallorean, Demon Lord of Karana. Oh Geez. The cover is just about as ridiculous as one can get from a fantasy book - there's a green man with a demon face, and a greedy looking king, and someone juggling flames. ALMOST as good as the one I'm reading now with the snake on the throne staring in a mirror. HA I'm SUCH a loser. Thanks Casey for encouraging this in me. I read outside today while Mom pulled weeds. She was so proud of her idea for uprooting the pokey thistles.
Today Emily and I saw Over the Hedge. It was pretty amusing, but RV was funnier. She was extra chatty today for some reason, which I was happy about. I hope she's starting to get more comfortable with me, and open up.
We also spent a lot of time looking at this BEAUTIFUL book of Colorado mountain photography in Barnes and Noble, and got motivated to go on a hike tomorrow in Colorado Springs. Sammie is there at a basketball camp at the Air Force Academy, so we're gonna go visit her and then hike at Garden of the Gods - totally cool, and I haven't been there since I went with Jamie like, a few years ago. *excited.
Ok, time to watch Prison Break again with my parents. I'm developing an addiction. except i keep forgetting to look for Alex Wade in the background.
