August 15th, Alex is back tomorrow. Goodie. Gotta decide whether or not I'll go to Guzzo at 12:45 tomorrow. It should be fun, I think. I'll figure it out before I sleep. Hmm, yeah.
I can't think of what else to write, I'll go now.

Decided to take one of the quizzes on Alex's blog.
My result:
You are Only in Dreams, the last track off of the
Blue album. You are one of the most beautiful
things in creation. You send a simple, but
strong message to those hopeless romantics out
there. Keep doing whatever you're doing, it
makes people feel good.
Which cool =weezer= song are you?

In other news, I miss Alex. She's gone till friday, and I've got no one to talk to. Hint hint.
Ring ring. Nudge nudge wink wink. Catch my drift?
Today's thing I find cool: Pinkerton, Weezer's sophomore effort. I picked it up for $13 and it's made me feel... um... happier. I recommend this a lot.
And the thing I don't find cool: St. Anger, by Metallica.
JSP at Six Six Five said it best:
Dear Metallica,

Listening to Radiohead's live performance at Musique Plus. They actually sound much better live. I'm not saying that the album work is bad, I just think that it always sounds better during a live show because... there's no mixing or remastering, it's just delivered raw as it is. Anyways, it's quite a good listen. The songs are almost all from their latest album, "Hail to the Thief."
Setlist: 1. Go To Sleep
2. Sail to the Moon
3. A Punchup at a Wedding
4. No Surprises (from OK Computer)
5. I will
6. There There
7. Everything in It's Right Place (Off the Kid A album)
8. Karma Police (from OK Computer [one of their best albums])
9. Like Spinning Plates (From Amnesiac)
All the songs are really well done, especially considering they were performed with only an acoustic guitar and Thom's vocals. I also think there was a keyboard and synthesizer. The songs aren't depressing at all, in my opinion, and are pretty... I don't know, uplifting?
I couldn't help but be impressed by Thom Yorke's lyrical skills. Where else would you hear lyrics like "Karma Police, arrest this man. He speaks in maths, he buzzes like a fridge."? Or that one from Talk Show Host, "You want me? Well fucking well come and find me. I'll be waiting with a gun and a pack of sandwiches."
I'm done raving about Radiohead.
So, what's up with you?

Warped. Today. And I'm not there. Because of that, I've disappointed one friend, to the point that I'm thinking she's mad at me. And at the point where I thought that things couldn't get any worse, I turned around and left. Just ran from my problems. I broke a rule in my book.
Don't run from my problems.
Well, I've certainly gone up shit creek now, no paddle, rafting on 3 attached pieces of plywood with a torn sail in the middle.
To be honest, I would've gone just for aformention friend. Done the right thing, got that shirt and CD, and listened to good music. But I didn't because I'm only finding $15 in my wallet, and none from the parents because I need to work for it. Well, shit. I'm too young for a job, much less a job at a place I'd actually consider working at.
And now I'm miserable. Could it get any worse? ...yeah.
St. Anger by Metallica, it's stuck in my head, and I want to hammer it (it being my head) in. With the back end of the hammer.
And to remedy it, I'm listening to Radiohead.
Joy.
Enough of my bullshit rantings, it's no use at all anyways, it's not like posting it on some site that no one sees will do any good anyways. I never completely understood the reasoning behind this. Other people have their reasons, but I have no sort of motivation to write here. I talk to most all people reading this anyways, with the exception of two or three people. Hell, I can't even remember why I started this.
I guess... I guess it's just so I can do this. Publicize my thoughts. Bring things down a level so it can be transferred digitally into words on your screen.
Why?
I wish I knew. But it's oddly motivating to think about how people who never met you would be able to follow you life story by just reading some words banged out on a half working keyboard that has sticky keys because of many spilled Coke incidents.
I'm done.
