Bits of News
-I have really cute new shoes.
-Summerfest starts Thursday night. I want to go see Wolfmother but I'm not sure if I have anyone to go with yet. My friend Drew is going to be in town but he wants to see Blue Oyster Cult. Seriously? Seriously.
-I have the new Interpol but I don't want to listen to it because I'm in an "I hate everything" music stage. I'm hoping I come out of it soon because I've been really, really excited about this album. If he's reading this, a billion thanks to Jason, the biggest sweetheart in the world, for the album. And for being so cute. :-*
-My big brother Patrick showed up from Chicago yesterday. He and my younger brother Tumbis are at a scary movie right now. A couple of hours ago we were talking to some of Tumbis' friends and looking at his yearbook and Paqui and I decided that high school kids are way cooler now than they were when we were in school. We want to go back to high school and be friends with all of the arty kids with hardcore swoops and dozens of pairs of black Chucks.
=Patrick also brought with him the upcoming Tegan & Sara album. I only heard one track but it's pretty f*ing good. They're growing up before my very eyes.
-I read last night that the Spice Girls might be reuniting in the near future. They were the loves of my life back in fourth grade, and I really really hope this happens. It would be even better if they went on tour singing all of their classics from the epic two albums they made when I was younger. Zig-a-zag ah!
-Even though I'm working a lot (by my standards), I seem to have a lot of extra time on my hands. I've taken up knitting/crochet, which is pretty stupid because it's eighty degrees outside. At least I can rest assured that I'll be warm when cold weather does strike (which, in Minnesota, will probably be September). I'm making a huge rug for my apartment next year out of old jeans and sweatshirts, and it looks pretty rad so far.
I'm sure there are other fascinating minutae that I left out, but you get the jist. Nothing's changed since elementary school- summer is fun until the novelty wears off and you realize your brain is rotting from Guitar Hero and Diet Mountain Dew.
