Conversations With Myself
Brej, I am going to give you some insight into the wonderful, crazy world that is my brayn (and all its sellz). Sometimes, when I should be working and am procrastinating really hard my mind wanders briefly, I have little internal conversations with myself. For example, here is the conversation I had in my mind while watching the season finale of The West Wing last week. I will call one side of my brayn A, and the side that is responding to side A will be B.
A: OMG! OMG! GAH THIS IS SO EXCITING!
B: WTF? The West Wing hasn't been exciting since that hack Wells took over.
A: I've been waiting for this all week and it's actually living up to expectations!
B: Dude. This is way weird, yo. I thought this show was done with being, you know, good.
A: OMG SANTOS DON'T WITHDRAW PLEEEEEEEEEASE?!
B: Don't be dumb, guy. You know it's all a dramatik setup and now he will give a big dramatik speech and anvils will fall from the sky.
[On TV, Santos gives a big dramatik speech and anvils fall from the sky.]
A: [emotionally] That was way awesome. That was almost, like, old skool, yo. SANTOS 4 PREZ!!11one!
B: Wow. Jimmy Smits can actually sorta act. Who woulda thunk?
A: AHHHHHHHHH LEO FOR VP AHHHH I'M GONNA CRY NOW THAT IS SO AWESOME!!!one!
B: But... Leo just had a heart attack, and everyone knows he was an alcoholic and a druggie. How is that remotely realistic?!
A: Screw realistic! LEO AHHHHH! SANTOS-MCGARRY 4 AMERICA!! *rushes to search for Santos-McGarry icons*
B: I wonder what they're gonna do to make Vinnick lose.
A: Santos is kinda hot.
B: WHAAAAAT??!
A: [quickly] Not, like... really... just sorta... ummm... JOSH IS STILL HOTTER EVEN THO HE IS OLD LIKE USOVA!
B: OMG WTF JIMMY SMITS IS NOT HOT YOU STOP RIGHT NOW.
A: [weeps] But... but... this damn show is capable of making anyone hot. They even made Josh Malina into one of my boyfriends!
B: And he's a short, bespectacled, amphibious creature! Don't you forget it! But dude, don't change the subject! SANTOS?!
A: Okay, so maybe his speech made me lose my sellz.
B: Damn straight. NEVER SAY ANYTHING LIKE THAT AGAIN.
Okay, so that very last line might've actually been fightin_the_law talking, but the rest was all in my head. *snikkerz*
Now, another meme stolen from marrasia. There is another conversation in my head I would like to share, but I will only share it if someone guesses #1 in this meme correctly.
Guess my favorite song by the named artist.
I'm going to make this list predominantly my more mainstream faves so that my non-indie brej can play, too.

- Stars - misspaprika guessed it (after about 3049890 guesses), as did astormyhaze - my favourite Stars song is Heart. I would like everyone who has not heard this song to go download it immediately and listen to it, even if you know that your music taste and mine are direct opposites, and if you don't love it, or at least like it, please tell me ASAP (seriously) so I can tell you you're CRAZY. STARK RAVING MAD!
As a bonus, here is the conversation I once had with myself after listening to Heart about twelve times in a row:
A: I LOVE THIS SONG LIKE WHOA.
B: Maybe you should listen to something else now instead.
A: [dreamily] Man, Torq manages to make a Canadian accent sound sexy in this song.
B: What the hell??
A: [tries to explain] Like, the first time he sings "Look at you, you're growing old so young..."
B: [begrudgingly] I suppose.
A: I would totally sleep with him.
B: WHAAAAAAAAAAT? He's, like, three feet tall!
A: I don't care.
B: I guess if he were taller, maybe.
A: That's kind of shallow.
B: I AM NOT SHALLOW.
A: But you agree he has a sexy voice?
B: Yeah. So does Amy.
A: I would maybe sleep with Amy, too.
B: OMG WTF?! JUST SHUT THE HELL UP, YO.
