  • “She’s a rebel, she’s a saint, she’s the salt of the earth & she’s dangerous.” –Green Day-


     


    I drove past a house today with signs on every side of it that read “NOT FOR SALE AT ANY PRICE.” It reminded me of that commercial where the people barge into someone’s house & they’re like, “We’ll take it,” even though it’s not for sale. WTF? Do house-hunters really haggle with these people for their not-for-sale house often enough to warrant signage?


    <<<>>>


                                *Google says that this house is not for sale, either.


     


    Sweet New CD’s In My Possession (That Are Now My Newest Obsessions):


    ·   Armor for Sleep’s “What To Do When You Are Dead”


    ·   Beck’s “Guero”


    ·   The Faint’s “Wet From Birth” & “Danse Macabre”


    ·   Brendan Benson’s “Lapalco”


    ·   Son, Ambulance’s & Bright Eyes’ “Oh Holy Fools”


    ·   The Dears’ “No Cities Left”


    ·   The White Stripes’ “White Blood Cells”


     


    Apparently my... boyfriend (?) looks like James Dean. How cool is that? Also, apparently a bundle of girls in the class of ’05 think he’z OMG, lyke, sOoOo hAWt & they wanna hang out with him. Sooo I guess I get to be cool by association because hahaaaaa.


    ((()))


     


    Sometimes all it takes for me to know that I did the right thing by transferring is to look at my former roommate’s pictures & remember what it felt like to be abandoned by people I thought were my friends & feel the misery of OU all over again. Kent is home now.


     


    This weather makes me happy, especially when I drive down 59 with my windows down belting out The Format. It better still be sunny this weekend or I’m going to dropkick Mother Nature. I dunno where to, but I’ll figure it out or something.

  • can i just say how happy i am that joyce got the bigam household out of the 80s and got internet?  thank you.

    now that that's over: i LOVVVVVVVE beck.  like, man.  in love.  obsessed -- with his music. 

    i miss driving sooo hard.  my favorite part of the summer is speeding down broad boulevard, blasting 106.5 out of every window -- usually it's some sweet-ass 80s song.  mmm.  yeah.

  • I know the house you're talking about-- I think the signs are because they're against the whole KentLink idea, which I believe will eventually involve demolishing that house (among others) for a stripmall or somesuch thing to "modernize" the campus. 

  • hey i am pretty sure it was you who also liked the 4400, and i just saw a commercial for the new season, this sunday june 5th at 9pm on the usa channel, so i thought i'd tell you in case you hadn't heard. hope everything is going well for you and i miss ya!!

  • Guero = love... good choice

  • I too have been obsessed with Beck, The Dears, and White Stripes, but now I am obsessed with Gorillaz' Demon Days... which is freaking amazing.

  • Amazing cd selections, also I think--scrath that...I know I inadvertently always give "the abandoners" nasty looks when I come across them...in memory of Sigma Kappa, Kate Bigam...

    whoops, my bad? 

  • Green Day... one of my guilty musical tastes. Oh, the shame. (I swear I hve better taste in music than that, though!) Heh.
    I like James Dean a lot, too.

  • I told him about how all the ladies love him but really its just one plus you.

  • sorry, i fail to see the similarities between kevin and the dean

  • *I also do not see the similarities. I, however, always thought he looked like Shawn in Boy Meets World, when I was in 5th grade. That was our group consensus at a young age! Rider Strong used to be there. James Dean... not so much! 
    I always wondered how you were friends with your friends at OU! I'll never forget getting ready with them to go to a party. 2 hours, 5 outfit changes and 2 lbs of make-up later, and we were out the door.Yowza! I couldn't handle that. Kent is so the place to be!*

  • I was just randomly xanga surfing because of the fact that I can't sleep, and came across this:

    Oh, man, the pics of Flotz & Joel are especially hilarious. I didn't know Katie Taisey was still in high school... the new profile pic of you is adorable... CONGRATS WITH BEING DONE!

    Katie Taisey IS still in high school . . . .Megan Taisey, on the other hand, is not.
     
    booya grandma.

  • How's the new Beck cd?  I've thought about getting it, but I really don't have any money.  I also want Brendan Benson as well.  I didn't see your mom last night, but there were lots of people there.  Has she been asked out yet?

    Thanks for the comments.   Later babe!

  • Not seeing it my friend, Kevin...Dean???
