i shouldn't be awake right now considering i'm really sick and i didn't fall asleep till four. i got home from my internship and had to help with the shooting of my roommate's band's music video. i'm in it but you can't tell because i'm wearing a bunny suit.
wwww.myspace.com/radiofixband the video is for kill this low. i'll post it when its done.
also i'm dating this boy whose in this band. www.myspace.com/sleepwell band. because it wouldn't be fair to plug one and not the other.
anyway. i did that and i woke up for my internship at nine to be there for ten thirty and i was still dying so i called out. i really didn't have much of a choice. i've been sick for a week(semester). i got better midweek and then our heat and hot water broke for two days and i think the cold made it resurface. either way, i woke up at nine and had to call out and couldn't even get back to sleep because i'm coughing so much. i feel really guilty about it too. all i can think about are those countless america's next top model marathons i had to sit through last year where the judges are like, "oh really, the bird flu? you think thats a legitimate excuse not to come to work? you obviously do not want this. ELIMINATED!" i'm not trying to be a model, but you get it.
despite all the torture, i have done some pretty cool things since i last updated. i saw envy on the coast, i am the avalanche, and minus the bear. all of which were amazing. dave visited last weekend and i went to my first boston haahd-core show with him and bryan which was a lot of fun. we saw vanna and ligeia and it was so intense. byran played guitar on vanna's last song and dave had some epic stage dives. i crowd surfed and got tossed onto the stage right onto my tailbone. but all in all, still good time. i can completely understand why kids get so into that scene. however, the highlight thus far was by without a doubt seeing the smashing pumpkins 20th anniversary tour. the theater we saw them in was fucking beautiful. it was very neoclassical and it was just... melancholy and the infinite sadness in theater form. i think that really added to it. aside from that, the smashing pumpkins were the smashing pumpkins. billy corgan was shredding and wearing a skirt and i got to see 1979 played live. almost died.
other than that, i'm just trying to get healthy and am looking forward to going home and having my whole family together..and real food. my cooking skills have not improved in the slightest. i'm also going to drive around until i can't drive anymore. i just learned how low gas prices are yesteday because i live in a bubble and i pretty much never see a gas station.
also if you're still with me and you like mewithoutyou, every time i die, concept albums, and the idea of having them all at once check out la dispute's new album. its called "somewhere at the bottom of the river between vega and altair" and i have not been able to stop streaming it since i put myself in quarantine and haven't actually left my apartment to go get it. its the first new album to come out that i've been able to get really really idon'twanttostoplisteningtothis into in a while. i think its refreshing because living in allston rock city is starting to make me hate dance/electronic music a little bit. i need the real thing.
