Listening to... Close Your Eyes- Jump, Little Children
Feeling... sleepy, and stressed.
I was just watching VH1 over my Cinnamon Toast Crunch and I had two surprises. The lesser of the two is Celine Dion does not look good with a tan and nude lipstick. She looked like a piece of shiny toast in her Stewart Little Video.
Surprise number two was that bands who topped the charts in high school can now be called One Hit Wonders. It doesn't seem that long ago, but I guess any song that was popular my sophomore year is now six years old. I guess you can't expect a one-hit wonder band to make a come back after that long. But in any event, I still really like that Cardigan's song "Lovefool"... even if they are a one hit wonder. What makes that stranger is that Saturday night my friend and I were talking about that song and Sixpence None the Richer (There She Goes, Kiss Me). For some reason, all of those one hit wonder bands get grouped into twos with me. Remember the song "Breakfast at Tiffanys" by Deep Blue Something? I never think of it without thinking of Del Amitri's "Roll to Me" (I think it was him anyway.) They aren't related except that they came out around the same time. Ah, the strange workings of the brain.
This afternoon, instead of studying and because the psyc video is already done, I'm going to American Adventures with camp. Should be fun. I hear the foam factory is a must see... Two things that I really like about myself...#1 I have the same entertainment interests as a five year old (I still watch Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory, I love Hello Kitty stuff, I'm scared of roller coasters, etc.) which makes keeping busy and entertained really easy, especially since I have a nice, long attention span. #2 I have a low alcohol tolerance. This is just so economical and convenient. I love it, and I'm not ashamed to be buzzing after one beer. Those are not at all related, but everytime I think about what I like about me (uh-oh, cheesey!) I think about how practical a low tolerance is. Many agree...
