If there is at least one person in your life whom you consider a close friend, and whom you would not have met without the internet, post this sentence in your journal.
LAMERIFIC!
i really love this song. i really love this band. omg i love music so much.
i ordered a back issue of Magnet with interpol on the cover and the holidays are making it come like in probably 3 more years. the sky is too packed with planes sending jars of strawberry preserves and petits fours decorated with christmas paraphernalia from the swiss colony catalog (WHICH i always request) to their loved ones. i really like ham, sometimes.
yesterday night i watched my video of all my taped strokes performances. 'whatever happened' on conan gets me so worked up because i miss julian being so incredibly skinny and wonderful. and i'm sorry but it's true.
and i really enjoy simultaneously being sick with a mother of a cold and staying home from school, drinking lipton cup-a-soup, listening to the doors, bauhaus, AND fischerspooner, reading my old diaries, and making lame bead rings for maria and mieke.
