. . . rainy blue skies ahead . . .

i spent all weekend indoors. it was nice. i watched like 12 movies.

okay, not 12. more like 6 full-length movies, several episodes of television, and skimmed through some other movies that i already know by heart. i wasn't feeling so great, but now that i'm better, i guess i'll have to start "talking" and "seeing" people again:

insunlight: we should hang out this week
insunlight: i'm warning you in advance
insunlight: so you'll be emotionally prepared

oh, that erin. she knows me too well.

rainybluesky: i'm kinda bummed my computer is so thick now
wisswee: same with mac mini and imac
wisswee: hahahaha
rainybluesky: i remember when i first got it i was like, oh so skinny! now i just look at it with disgust
wisswee: think of it this way
wisswee: if you ever sit on it
wisswee: thick is better
rainybluesky: "you've really let your titanium ass go, powerbook"
wisswee: hahahahahahahhaahhahahahaa

wisswee: i need to move out
wisswee: and have sex
wisswee: overshare
rainybluesky: yes, yes that was
rainybluesky: but it was also a bit obvious
rainybluesky: i mean, i don't doubt your powers and prowess
rainybluesky: but there seems to be very little sex to be had in camarillo

erin and i were talking about this ridiculous article i found online and our conversation took a turn for the uber-geeky but completely relevant:

rainybluesky: THE GOV'T IS RETARDED
insunlight: terrorists prefer Al Home Bin Depot
insunlight: the gov't has been retarded for years
insunlight: it's like now it's still just as retarded, but the special ed classes are taught by monkeys
rainybluesky: ergh
rainybluesky: i'm so mad
insunlight: i wish we had a parliamentary system
insunlight: so we could hold a vote of no confidence
rainybluesky: but what if the chancellor declares himself emperor
rainybluesky: and uses his vast clone army to subjugate us
insunlight: would that really be worse than what we have now?
rainybluesky: hm, good point
rainybluesky: at least there would be lasers and spaceships in that reality
rainybluesky: LASERS AND SPACESHIPS, ERIN. my dream!
insunlight: i say, bring on the hand-lightning!
insunlight: let's work towards that brighter, more repressive tomorrow!

so i was reading one of my favorite websites, overheard in new york, when i came across this one that i just had to re-post, for prosperity:

Girl on 13th & Broadway: I had a few drags on New Year's Eve, and woke up the next morning sounding like Tara Reid.

Well, at least you didn't pick up any of Tara's other bad traits, like looking like a skank. and smelling like a skank. and being a skank. 'cause you know what skanky Tara Reid has besides an undeserving amount of disposable income? v.d.

wisswee: so the guy tammy's sleeping with
wisswee: is SO cute
rainybluesky: rape him!
rainybluesky: oh wait.... they don't like that

rainybluesky: i believe someone is spraying one of those cans of computer air thingies
rainybluesky: and i actually spoke out loud, with quite a lot of hope, "is there a spaceship in here?"
insunlight: hehehehe
insunlight: you would fit in well at pcmag
rainybluesky: i know that someday my prince will come... and carry me away with his Supersonic 3000 JetPack Ultra^tm

i thought i was done with college. i guess not.

most of my time in college was spent working on yearbook. or newspaper. or hanging out with my boyfriend. or watching tv and movies. or surfing the net. or going to concerts.

notice none of the above is "studying" or "writing papers", which is what i'm supposed to be doing right now.

shit.

anyway, here's a cute little sad video i found - enjoy, whomever reads this blog.

so yesterday night, i was disappointed to discover that the left earbud of my ipod earphones had broken, so it the ampflifying cap was all dangly. fortunately, it still worked, so i was like, no prob, i'll crazy glue it.

as expected, for a brief moment i glued my finger to it, but that was expected and i painfully peeled it off.

but then i was worried that i glued it wrong and the audio wasn't gonna work and it'd be too late... so i plugged it into my mini and tested it.

while the glue was STILL WET... and yes, i got a earphone stuck in my ear.

... i'll wait for everyone to catch their breath from laughing like a loon.

and although many of you hope that this story goes on, i'm sorry to disappoint and say that i peeled it out and spent the night picking at the dried glue flakes off my ear.

WissWee: i had such a crush on this guy
rainybluesky [looks at picture]: he's cute
WissWee: and he's the sweetest guy ever
rainybluesky: aww
rainybluesky: sweet guys are nice
rainybluesky: i personally am attracted to jerks who occasionally act sweet
WissWee: hahaha
WissWee: semi sweet?
rainybluesky: yes... semi sweet... like chocolate
rainybluesky: yum
WissWee: haha
WissWee: i like chocolate

My thoughts on the new Weezer video for their song "Perfect Situation" from the album Make Believe:

1. Guest star Elisha Cuthbert - fairly standard, they often use guest stars (Muppets, Hugh Hefner, the Fonz)
2. Weezer - "r" = Weeze. Does the "r" = Rivers? In the first place, Weezer = Rivers, because he named the band after himself (childhood nickname due to asthma).
3. Is Elisha a fan of Weezer? (a la is she deserving of this guest star spot, or was she picked because she is the latest hot thing within their price range)
4. Was Elisha channeling Lindsey Lohan/Ashlee Simpson/Hilary Duff with the mussed hair and dark eye shadow and predictable stage performance?
5. Who's luckier, Rivers getting Elisha to dance around him, or Elisha getting Rivers to protect him from a mob?
6. When Rivers starts to sing in front of the Elisha's closed door, he looks so sad. He really knows how to play the sad puppy dog thing. but really, it's the only look he ever has.
7. Something wasn't right... it wasn't until the third viewing that i realized that Rivers isn't wearing his glasses. =(
8. How cool am I to predict that this would be their next single?
9. When Elisha gets replaced by Rivers -- is that saying that Rivers could easily be replaced? Only a man can do the job? Did they get this idea from a long-suffering groupie? That Gwen isn't the only one who can rock at a No Doubt concert?
10. When Scott Shriner was yelling at Elisha the Rock Star, was he channeling some hidden anger towards Rivers?
11. Rivers the Bodyguard/Assistant essentially betrays and deserts Elisha the Rock Star -- but earlier in the video he looks like he's in L-O-V-E with her. this just made me sad.
12. What is the video trying to tell us? Is Rivers a prima donna? Yes, we know he is. but does he go to the extreme divaness protrayed by Elisha? Is he self-mocking, or did the director make him do this? (rumor is that he didn't really like the "Beverly Hills" video concept)
13. Freshly added onto my list of things that sucks I moved here is that I was invited to a casting call of this video and I didn't go. When I was invited it wasn't that big of a deal, but now I'm damn bummed.

=w=

I've decided that Elisha was luckier.
