I’ve been one before…accidentaly. I SWEAR I didn’t know they were already on shakey ground…
I. Swear.
I’ve never actively and intentionally homewrecked…
But I totally want to.
You see, there’s this guy…Jack…I know Jack wants me…but I also know that Jack has a girlfriend…more things I know? I know Jack is too nice of a guy to actually cheat (and I wouldn’t want him too) and I know that for the most part he’s happy in his relationship…
But you know what else I know?… I don’t want a relationship. I just want to have fun with Little Jack…
Can I destroy someone’s happiness for a few hours of fun once a week? Short answer: No.
so obviously I can’t/wont do anything…but I sooooo want to.
Apparently, when you work for a small place that’s owned by 2 Frugal Fannies you should never, and I mean NEVER, let it get out that you know anything about marketing, advertising, or writing. Just. Lie.
Do you want to know what happens if you don’t lie? I’ll tell you.
They will spend hours trying to work out a “trade” with you…like this, “soooo, if you help us and redesign our entire website we’ll give you a free scoop of ice cream every day for a month.” Seriously.
Oh, here’s another one, “can you re-write our entire menu descriptions so that they sound exotic and exciting and in exchange we’ll let you buy our retail merchandise at cost.” No. Joke.
While they’re at it, they’ll decide that they’ll just pay you your low hourly wage to redesign some pamphlets and then decide not to use them, but a month later they’ll pull it out and move a margin over by half an inch and unveil it as “their” creation.
So, yea, just keep the shit you’re good at under wraps until you can find someone who will actually pay you for your work and creativity. And by “pay” I don’t mean in miniature gummi bears.
So, I know I said at one point that I want to talk about Dragonette’s new album…but here’s the thing: I think I need to educate you on Dragonette in general.
And that’s not something that can be easily done. It’s a multi-step process.
Here’s what I’m gonna do; I’m going to remind you of their first album (which you should already have, but I doubt you do), I’ll introduce you to their new album, and then I’ll discuss how awesome they are live. So we have at least 3 posts that will be dedicated to Dragonette alone. So you might want to just not stop by for a week or so if your a non-music-lover.
so here’s part 1- a few songs off of their first album, also known as “my favorite”.
Song #1 – the first song that I fell in love with or ever heard for that matter – Take It Like A Man
Song #2 – I Get Around – probably my third favorite song
Song #3 – Jesus Doesn’t Love Me – my second and sometimes first (depending on my mood) favorite song…I actually think I’ve posted this one before
Well, there you have my top 3 favorite songs off of their first album, Galore. Though, it’s not really fair to pick favorites because I love the entire album. There’s not one song on there that I don’t like. It’s also the first album I’ve ever purchased where I never skip songs.
When I first bought Galore a couple years ago you couldn’t get it in America. I had to order it on Amazon and I think it came from the UK somewhere. I don’t really remember…but I do know this, I stayed in my car’s CD player for at least 6 months without ever being taken out. I also had a, what I call, “house copy” that was in my bedroom BOSE and would play when my alarm went off every morning.
Next, I’ll give you a few songs off of their new album, Fixin’ to Thrill….
I can tell you can’t wait.
(and in case you haven’t figured out, I’m not really going to write a whole lot about them…other than that I love them and you should love them too. Just listen. I think their music speaks for itself)
did you know for the past three days you got pictures out of me? shocking, I know. Lets see, you got me in rain boots, the wrapper to a durex, and chris pine. You’re all so lucky!
‘cept today…no pictures today.
what can I say? I’m lazy.
lazy and too busy reading Hithhicker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
Can you believe I’ve never read it before? seriously though, what’s wrong with me?
More proof that something’s wrong with me…I only just read Thursday Next by Jasper Fforde…another book I should have read ages ago.
I also just bought Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters. Looking forward to that one. I’m just waiting for Jane Eyrcula or Little Women Werewolves or something of that nature. The covers of S&S&SM as well as Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (which I already have) crack me up too. They just look so silly and serious all at the same time.
I was going to talk about Dragonette’s new album, Fixin’ To Thrill, but I’m too distracted by my book right now. I’ll try again tomorrow. (but it’s awesome so go buy it)
Did you know, that the #1 reason I get hits over the past few weeks has been because of Chris Pine? Weird, right?
I have talked about Chris Pine maybe once. or twice.
Still, almost not at all. I talk about vomit more than I talk about Chris Pine (I’m seeing how many times I can say Chris Pine in one post…we’re up to 5).
Speaking of vomit, I touched old man sweat at the gym yesterday and vomited a little. Then I came home and this morning watched the latest Southpark episode…cue scene of the police dolled up like a ho…depositing his butt load (literally) of ejaculate into an evidence bag. Vomit. Funny as shit…but still vomit.
Back to Chris Pine (6).
He’s delightfully gorgeous. He’s freaking Chris Pine (7) people. I guess he’s going to be in some new movie that’s a big deal…such a big deal I can”t remember the name or the character he plays, but you can bet I’ll go see Chris Pine (8) in anything.
I would pay to watch Chris Pine vomit (9).
But I do feel bad for the people who are searching for Chris Pine (10) and then they end up here. I mean, they probably are stumbling into posts that have nothing to do with Chris Pine (11) or Star Trek.
Chris Pine (12).
Back to vomit (because that’s what you’re really here for)…someone was getting freak-nasty yesterday in the parking structure elevator at my school (sadly it wasn’t I). You can bet it wasn’t Chris Pine either (13). Chris Pine (14) would never use Durex.
