"Maybe we all live life at too high a pitch, those of us who absorb emotional things all day, and as a consequence we can never feel merely content: we have to be unhappy, or estatically head-over-heels happy, and those states are difficult to achieve within a stable, solid relationship. Maybe Al Green is directly responsible for more than I ever realized."

We Decided to Let Them Say "We Are Convinced" Twice. It Was More Convincing That Way.
-I don't like the Decemberists but I like how the cover of "The Crane Wife" looks like a somee.com card.
-It would behove you to look up amethyst on wikipedia. Trust me. It's good.
-Blog title: The name of Walid Raad's 15 photo exhibit of when the Isreali army invaded Beirut in 1982. He was 14 when this happened. I saw the exhibit about 6 months ago. The pictures are hanuting...but the name of the exhibit terrifies me.
...Speaking of terrifying, I fully intend to see the "Last House on the Left" remake that comes out in a few weeks. The original made me never want to live in a wooded area (I did) or go galavnating around with no real purpose (I did). But what is truly terrifying is that I want to actually see this movie. This, however, is on par with my viewing of "Confessions of a Shopaholic" last night.

Recommendations, Definitions, Quotables, and the like...
Read: Love is a Mixed Tape by Rob Sheffield. It's beyond beyond.
Fact: I just learned what rhapsody means. I had to look it up.
Quote: "...a little oasis of elegant unreasonableness in a vast desert of practical common sense." -Oscar Wilde. The man, literally, can do no wrong. I'm hoping to work on my OW kisses collage from Pere Lachaise cemetary in Paris...pics will follow shortly or as soon as I get my ass in gear.
Fact: Today feels like the spring of 2002 outside. And I'm inadvertently listening to Pink Flloyd on Pandora...which will always makes me think of the spring of 2002.
