How can anyone not love the lyrics to "Graceland"?

So I'm updating my livejournal for the first time in ages, but I'm not really gonna do the thing where I tell you what I've been up to because:

1) I don't think anyone really cares THAT much. (Not in a self-deprecating, NOBODY LOVES ME! way. More of a, well, you've lasted this long... way)
2) It really would take too long to say everything I wanted to say. And I wouldn't want to leave things out.
3) I don't think anyone really cares THAT much. (Not in a self-deprecating, NOBODY LOVES ME! way. More of a, well, you've lasted this long... way)

I am still, by the way, a fulltime employee of HMV which has swallowed up my time much like a hungry fish, but I work with a bunch of people I really like a lot, so it's okay really. I've also almost doubled my CD collection - definitely doubled my DVD collection - since starting there in October, and I don't even start getting my staff discount until next month. It's too enticing.

I think I'll probably just say some things now.

Um. I'm in a bit of a, "I'm going to say some things" mood.

How is everyone? I think everyone who reads this should comment with a single sentence about one thing you've done since I last posted. (October, I think?) It doesn't have to be the biggest thing you did - it could just be that you had toast for breakfast this morning. (I know I did.) Although it could be that you have, since October, gotten married and had many children. (I know I didn't.) But I think that if the latter is something that's happened to you since October, then I probably should already know about it and, if I don't, then why the hell do we know each other at all?

Every new paragraph I start, I am holding myself back from going, "HEY EVERYONE - YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO THIS SONG..!"

HEY EVERYONE -

Oh man, if I haven't got a feature length script of my entire own finished - or at least very thoroughly planned - by the time I turn 20, I'm going to be so fucked off.

I start university this October, by the by. Biology.

Hey, so I think everyone who reads this should comment with a single sentence about one thing you've done since I last posted. (October, I think?)

Does this post sound downbeat? I think it sounds a little downbeat. I'm not actually at all unhappy. Guys, I'm having a time. I think it's been the recently listening to Casiotone For The Painfully Alone, BARR, Micah P. Hinson, and the first CD of the Bob Dylan "No Direction Home Soundtrack" bootlegs. (Not that this music is at all depressing, but I think it would tend to make you talk like this. Like a total cockbag.)

Hey, so I think everyone who reads this should comment with a single sentence about one thing you've done since I last posted. (October, I think?)

I hope you're all doing great things and having great fun.
