to keep me on the top of your mind

so, i wasn't going to blog tonight. i admit. i was tired. and i wanted to go to sleep early. but, it's 1:40am. and i got tired of not blogging. alas, here i sit.

had a good day. busy day. busy night. work. work. work. and some more work. it seemed. and after i was so happy to be home after a super hectic night - i was called back down to work.

i cooked dinner tonight. pork chops. i had never cooked pork chops before in my life. but, now i have. i don't really like pork. but, everybody ate them and actually really liked it. so, that was good. i used an old recipe dating back to the beginning of time. you may know it. it's called 'Shake and Bake.' but, i didn't shake. i dipped. and baked.

i was burning cds last night for one of the residents here and she wanted the song 'Shake It' by Metro Station. and i debated whether or not i would switch it out for 'I'm Shakin' by Rooney. they sound pretty similar. except the Rooney song is way better. and instead of being sung by Miley Cyrus' bro, it's sung by Jason Schwartzman's bro. again, way cooler.

and, i just have to share this with you - i downloaded another song for her. it's a song by Ludacris. and, it's called - wait for it - Blueberry Yum Yum.

BLUEBERRY YUM YUM.

THAT is the name of a song. are we 2 years old? nay, 1. 2 year olds have better language skills than that. come on. what the heck could that song be about??? yogurt?? muffins?? pancakes!?! really Ludacris? REALLY? you HAD to name your song Blueberry Yum Yum?

THAT'S a dealbreaker. if a man names a song Blueberry Yum Yum - that's a dealbreaker.

and that was my Liz Lemon impression. also - Ludacris was so good in Crash. why does he have to go name a song that?

just call it Blueberry.

anyways. i once again downloaded a lot of songs that i am ashamed of. titles that i will never repeat. songs that i will NEVER listen to. i can't understand how people can listen to hip hop and rap constantly. probably how some other people can't understand how i can listen to Crash Kings for 3 days straight.

SEGUE.

speaking of Crash Kings.....THEY'RE COMING BACK TO BOSTON!!!!! on 31 january. that's in just a few weeks. I'M GOING. are you going? I AM. $9. NINE DOLLARS. that's like, free. that band is worth way more than nine dollars. that's less than i paid for their whole cd on itunes.

this is their SECOND EVER Boston show. their first boston show was with Rooney. the one that we saw. cool, right?

OH. i'm super excited. i will wear my red plaid shirt. when i get it.

Crash Kings have wonderful songs about being outside. i realized that. they have a great song about winter, a great song about a rainstorm, and a great song about climbing a mountain.

yeah. i'm really excited. they're going to be so famous. soon. in like, five minutes pretty much. yeah. so great.

and i learned that the Clavinet that Tony plays is one of 100 in the whole world. that's crazy, right? yep.

anyways. it's 1:58am. i should just stay up. the food delivery will be here soon. well, it comes at 7:45am. usually. still way to early. why does food need to come that early? i don't know.

ok, i admit it. i'm kind of looking forward to seeing my friend who delivers the food. remember last month he told me that he quit smoking? that's when we became friends. i see him once a month. that's more than i see most of my friends.

i don't think i have anything planned for today. or this weekend.

oh wait - yes i do. today i am having a Princess Diaries marathon. YEP. you read that right. PRINCESS. DIARIES. MARATHON. i have the second one from Netflix and then i thought, "i should just watch the first one too and make a day of it!" so good. i'm looking forward to it.

OH OH OH!!!!!! omg, i can't believe this wasn't the first thing i talked about.

JULIAN CASABLANCAS. on Letterman. happened wednesday night!! did anybody watch? i've had his performance as a tab in my Firefox browser alllll day so i wouldn't forget to post it for you.

Julian Casablancas on David Letterman performing, 'Out of the Blue.'

the sound on the video is a little quiet. but, the performance is amazing. so many people on stage creating that beautiful song. that's my favorite song. loves it. it just looks like a bunch of people got together and said, "hey, you wanna play this song? yeah? great! let's go!" there's two drummers, two keyboardists, two guitars, and one Julian. awesome.

he's in Boston TONIGHT. friday night. YEP. am i going? nope. bummer man. i would have gone if i had enough notice and someone to go with.

ugh. okay. now i'm not looking forward to the food delivery. i would rather sleep instead of carry freezing, heavy boxes of food at 7:45 in the morning.

i think i might go to bed soon. i was tired all night at work. my alarm didn't go off this morning again. i've been using the alarm on my cell phone. it is so lame. it will randomly shut itself off. without ever going off. i don't understand it.

i wish i had some ice cream right now. raspberry chocolate chip ice cream. i haven't had that in a long time.

(omg i'm so excited about crash kings in boston i can't even stand it)

ahh, alright. i guess it's that time of night. the time when i go to bed. 2:29am.

Ruby has been trying to get me to go to bed for a while. she's tired. and she was sleeping on the couch when i was watching a movie, but then i got up, and she had to get up too. and then she was all mad that i got off the couch.

interesting, right? yeah.

so. oh yeah. i was going to bed.

ok. have a wonderfully perfect friday. i hope everything goes just as it should. i will be sad that you're not here with me watching my Princess Diaries marathon. maybe i'll make popcorn. i'll let you know how PD #2 is.

love to you. talk to you soon...
