"action is character"

oh, i had an uneventful day. it was so uneventful it was painful. and i had to take a nap because i was so tired from doing nothing. for serious.

i went to the post office. got nothing.
went to the grocery store. got lettuce and tomatoes. and, something else....OH, soy milk.
went home.

NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING.

it was hotttttt outside today. which meant that it was really hotttt in my third floor attic apartment. and i had the windows open and there were children outside playing.

watched, An Education last night. LOVED it. i gave it five stars. just because i enjoyed it so much. it was kind of like the best of both worlds. 'chillin out, take it slow, and then you rock out the show.' no, those are Hannah Montana lyrics. just kidding.

but, it was like, YYEEAAHH, GO HAVE FUN AND BE CRAZY AND DO THINGS THAT ARE NOT BENEFICIAL TO YOUR LIFE!!!!!! and i was all excited!!! but then it was also like, YYEEAAHH STAY IN SCHOOL AND GET AN EDUCATION AND BE SMART!!!!!

i liked it. because she did BOTH OF THOSE THINGS very well. it had really good music. and i thought Peter Saarsgard did a great accent. and it was very funny. which i wasn't expecting. and, there was a Duffy song in the closing credits which i thought was cool. and i had never listened to Duffy before, and now i have two of her songs. including that one, Smoke Without Fire. and the one they played on the radio, Mercy.

so - YEAH. you should see that movie. Emma Thompson is really great. she has a tiny part. but, she's very good. and Olivia Williams, a.k.a. Miss. Cross (from Rushmore) is in it too. and Alfred Molina! from Spiderman....2? and also from my recording of Fiddler on the Roof.

let's see. what else.

OH! i bought exciting things online today:

1. BLUE and GREEN hair dye! to try and create TEAL. should i mix them before applying? i'm very excited for them to come. YESYESYES!!!!!!! i'm totally going to do it.

2. CRASH KINGS TICKET! 10 bucks! where? The Note, in glorious West Chester, PA. that's right!!! PENNSYLVANIA! me and Ryan are off on another wonderful road trip. LOVES IT. on 15 April. it's gonna be a tight squeeze, because she has class until 2pm. we're gonna BOOK IT, PUNCH IT, GUN IT to the show. the show is at 9. can we do it? um, heck yeah. because we create a Crash Kings Awesome that knows no limits.

what? i don't know. but, we're going. and i'm REALLY freaking excited. i thought i was going to have to wait until MAY 22 to see another show.

also, i believe today is Mike's birthday. 2 april.

SO. those are exciting things happening in my life.

also exciting is that i'm going home for easter! my fave holiday. i wish Ruby Tuesday could come with me. i'm excited to go home.

also excited for the drive home, because i really like listening to music in the new car. MP3 HOOKUP. best thing ever invented since soap. AND, just the normal cord doesn't charge the iPod, but, i still have my other ipod hookup from my non-mp3 enabled car, and i use that to charge, and the aux cord to play through the speakers!!!! it's truly a WINWIN situation.

and i have this great playlist that i've been listening to nonstop for a while. it started out just Crash Kings and JET. and then i slowly began adding other awesome things. like, Tally Hall. Red Hot Chili Peppers. Julian Casablancas. The Killers. Coconut Records.

speaking of Tally Hall - something awesome happened the other night....

i was checking my email and got an email from Twitter saying that @hiddeninthesand was now following me! this is the super Tally Hall Fan Twitter. like, SUPER. and i was pretty excited because THEY were following ME!!!!

and so then i started following them. and they sent me a message saying that they had found THIS VERY BLOG and read some awesome things about Tally Hall and thought that we would be a good Twitter match.

um, AWESOME, right?! yeah. i was pretty excited. still am.

Twitter is wonderful and if you're not on it - you should be. although, it's been very slow for me today. i think all the crazy kids doing foolery or what have you.


as i mentioned earlier, i took a nap this evening. i couldn't keep my eyes open and i was so bored, that i decided to go to sleep. from 8:35pm until 10:05pm. a late evening nap. and i had a dream that Kara and her boyfriend Clint came to visit me and they brought that chocolate raspberry mousse cake that i had in staff meeting for my birthday.

and i woke up and REALLY wanted that cake. yummm... it was a good dream. Ruby actually woke me up because she was ready for supper. and she kept licking my arm and i would wake up, and then immediately fall back to sleep. and then finally she climbed on top of me and started licking nonstop. now she's sleeping on the couch beside me.

OK. it's currently 12:26am. 2 april. possibly Mike's birthday. oooo Mike. i just want him to hug me all the time. while he's wearing that cardigan that is still the background on my desktop. and every time i see that picture i lose my breath a little.

alright now. i hope you are all having a much more exciting week than i am. maybe i'll read a book tomorrow. ok. i will.

have a great night! or morning or afternoon. whenever you read this. or skim this. whatever you do with these posts. (search for your name....maybe....)

i'll talk to you all later! today is friday, i believe. enjoy it!
