So.
I'm gonna make this like a weekly thing that sums things up. Like, stories, maybe, but mostly new obsessions, things I'm looking forward to, recurring themes, and such. Using...
HEADERS. O SHI-
It'll happen on Fridays/Saturdays/Sundays, rarely. If I forget one time, bug me about it.
Anyway, let's begin, shall we?
HIGH SCHOOL
To be quick, it's a bit draining - the kids are mostly morons and they all think I'm a dipshit, which makes me Teh Lonely (although at the same time I'm glad I'm not in their group because it means I'm smart) - but it's OK. The teachers are a bit... bleh, but whaddaya gon' do. The English teacher is OK.
THE BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER
I've been on a Brave Little Toaster kick for a while. I NEED to find this movie to rent/buy/GET SOMEHOW. I tried looking for it last weekend but found no trace of it. That movie is awesome. They got JON LOVITZ to play a frickin' TALKING TOASTER. AWESOME. He totally steals the show, if I recall correctly. The musical numbers are pretty cool - they're arranged by Van Dyke Parks, after all - and plus it's actually a little twisted. The scary junkyard scene, the creepy messed up appliances in that shop, the weird nightmare sequence with Toaster... And that obession with The Master is a bit creepy. (I liked him - he was like a nerd and crap, before nerds were cool.)
STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN
Today is actually the first time I have ever listened to the song. I got around to it after watching a Biography thingy on Led Zeppelin on A&E. A good song, but not THAT great. As you can tell, the whole part about "If you hear a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed" amuses me greatly.
