there are a few things on my mind today.
there's one question in particular that's been cling clanging around in my brain since yesterday. when did we become such parker snobs? when did we evolve into look-how-well-read-i-am, check-out-all-the-obscure-music-i-listen-to, i-have-an-opinion-on-everything, i-am-superior-to-you jerks?? i was thinking about that yesterday when gabe and fletcher were arguing over the patriot act, and when i told gabe maybe he was thinking of john irving, who wrote "cider house rules," and not washington irving, and when everyone was huddled around club passim, and when we all talked about how leo kottke was coming to harvard soon. i wonder how many of us have actually heard a leo kottke song. or could name one of his albums. it's really gross. it totally disgusts me. we all do it. it's a constant contest to see who's the best. ugh.
snob: One who affects an offensive air of self-satisfied superiority in matters of taste or intellect.
we are such snobs.
okay, enough of that.
the good news is that i love the cds i bought yesterday. and that it's now 5:15 and is still light out. and it's still pretty warm. and that "the water engine" went very well lastnight (congratulations). and my mom's making chocolate cheesecake. and emusic has some pretty good stuff on it. and i am getting a computer in my bedroom very soon.
i am so obnoxious. i'm sorry. seeya.
