Man I have one busy week ahead of me so I probably will not be online at all except for checking up on E- mails of course. Here's a brief update though:
One of my old friends has decided to chat with me again after a long time of silence. She sounds stable and comfortable in her hotel job (seriously I knew she was always meant to be the type of woman who worked a job, had kids- the whole deal. Not to say she couldn't have a career but she has more of a wife/ mother vibe with her) Next thing she will tell me is she's getting married probably. Some people like just a normal life like that...me- I would hate it. I live on a fast world that's all. This friend really doesn't and can be a bit boring- but nonetheless she is nice and there's always room for nice people in life imo.
I just got the news earlier this week that my brother is going to have another kid. This coming from the same girlfriend who claimed from the beginning she was unable to have kids. Obviously getting pregnant twice proves she's a total liar, right? I mean I guess I'm happy...but also disappointed. It's hard to explain. My brother had this bright future ahead of him but with two babies now at only age 21...yikes. That future seems kind of dim now. He thinks it will be easy to go to college and afford two kids...man it breaks my heart to know it will not work out as smoothly as he is hoping it would. His girlfriend just wants to settle down with a big family and have him work a regular job but Chad...he is a restless soul. He'll hate it soon enough I just know it. The last thing he wants to do is settle down and live a normal life. His girlfriend already fights with him about everything as well- I don't believe they'll stay together at all. But before they officially break it off with one another they'll probably be on their fifth kid! Just..yikes. Makes me happy at times not to be in a serious relationship with anyone right now. It's amazing when we're single we all wish for serious relationships but when we get them everything gets complicated, sometimes very complicated.
Oh before I forget- my prediction was right. Michelle Branch is going back to being solo again. I just read about it. I don't know the state of the ho- hum Wreckers but she wants to briefly go back to doing a solo album. So Branch fans must be wetting themselves over that haha. I can't believe they would though after her public bitching towards them in that one lame letter online. Some fans turn the other cheek though I guess.
Nothing else really interesting in music except I really am loving Finger Eleven's new single Paralyzer- that song is stuck in my head when a new James Blunt song isn't. All the Lost Souls continues to grow on me and I seriously am loving it. James made a really great album here imo. I won't dare compare Back to Bedlam to it though for they're just too different and I love both too much. It would be like comparing Keane's Hopes and Fears to Under the Iron Sea.
They're also making a Sex and the City movie which I am so excited for and thank god all the original cast will be in it. :) I'll admit at first I did not like the show, but then I gave it a chance one night for the hell of it and I really did get into it. Critics who claim it is shallow really have not watched it honestly. The movie should be out May 2008.
There are a few good films coming out actually so I think this year and early next I will be in the theater quite a lot. If I can. Matters if I will be having as much planned to do as I do this week. Better get going- later everyone. Hang in there :)
