You keep eternity, give us the radio

Gah, where did my weekend go?!

I know where Saturday night went, at least: I had ridiculously delicious dinner with zabira at Kushibar, and THEN I had a Nutella mocha (which is a diabolically genius invention), and then we headed over to the Crocodile Café to see a rock show. So, the backstory here is this: a couple of months back, I read an article in

What Cat said b/c she is wise.

*noogie*

But I totally get it--It's also extra weird because EVERYTHING about highschool is weird and it's that time--at least for me--when wondering if people think you're a freak is pretty much part of the official curriculum and lots of those insecurities just come boiling up when you see someone in new circumstances. That's MY neurosis, though. Yours is probably entirely unique to you, but what I'm trying to say is that I get the weirdness, whatever its etiology, so I say OWN IT and move past it. Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeap! LIke someone really smart said to me yesterday, if it doesn't go well, you never have to interact with him again if you don't want to. Being a growned up is nice that way.

*smish*

Yeah, it's funny, because I think--though maybe I've just blocked it out--that I actually had a more solid social footing in high school than I've ever had since. Not because I was one of the cool kids, but because I was just so definitely NOT one of the cool kids, and I never was, nor particularly aspired to be, so I knew where I stood and I had my (similarly uncool) friends and that all worked for me. (And I was fortunate enough not to be bullied or anything like that, so being uncool had fewer consequences for me than it does for a lot of kids, I think.) I mean, my high school journal is full of angst, but it's not quite that kind of angst

Checked out Telekinesis (because obvs. I don't have ENOUGH music on my computer. Did I ever rec to you Two Door Cinema Club? They're in that pop type vein and really ridiculously good). They're kind of awesome :D and OMG in the How The Heck Is THAT Even Possible Dept: Cody does look like David & Dom had a baby. I might have to go back and look at that picture at least a million times.

SO CUTE, right? I'm glad you like them! I bought their first album on Saturday but I haven't actually listened to it yet; I'm curious how they sound in the studio, since so much of what I loved about their live show was in the performance. I'm anxious to hear it! And I will check out Two Door Cinema Club, thank you! :) (And isn't the resemblance HILARIOUS? I could not stop thinking about it!)

I &hearts you so!

[brynnmck]

AWWW. Right back at you! *smish*

[brynnmck]

HEE. I'm glad you're enjoying it! I certainly am. In other news, have you heard about this new thing called THE INTERNET? It's a SERIES OF TUBES, I guess! How cool is THAT? Heeee. Ah well. I'm late to this party, but let's just embrace the fact that I showed up at all, right? :)

I have watched it! Z brought it over a few months ago. GOOD TIMES. (Though I would like to see it again now that I know them all a bit better.)

LOOK AT THAT GQ MOTHERFUCKER, WITH HIS LEATHER JACKET AND HIS CIGARETTE AND HIS SWAGGER. HI FRANK. PLZ TO BE HAVING SEX WITH ME NOW.
