I'm not sure if it's just the whole "college" thing, but I love cold leftovers. I'm eating my roommates stale
Chinese food and it's super good.

This review of a song by Miguel made me laugh. Really hard.
"…as in 'Do you like drugs?,' which is the only information Miguel wants to know about you. He promises 'matinee movies, morning secrets, midnight summers, swim private beaches,' and a whole run of clichéd activities that sound clichéd precisely because he's never actually done them. What he has done is drugs-- and he would like you to do drugs, too, which is to say compulsively, vigorously, and until you're all gone.
Miguel takes the luxurious tempo of a ballad, but the drum tics and guitar flourishes all work in doubletime-- the twitchy hands of the undernourished and chemically overstimulated. Now he wants to dance real close, and you let him, because you like drugs too, so you believe him when he confesses his fears, but understand that his is the love song of someone who has no idea what love is-- vulnerability at its deepest and irony at its highest. It's a character sketch that puts Miguel in league with writers like Frank Ocean, but also with people like Chris Owens, formerly of Girls, whose disaffected subjects often take a lot more than they've learned to give. What people like this want is to be cradled and nurtured through the dark night of their soul. What they need is a glass of cold water, a good squeeze on the shoulder, and their cab fare." --Mike Powell

I was watching a documentary last night while doing arty stuff. It was on Jay Z's Hard Knock Life Tour of 1999. I have SO much respect for Jay-Z after watching that show. All the rappers on tour with him were doing all sorts of crap and he was just staying out of it, as classy as can be. That is why he is King. He stays focused on the music; while those other guys just go screw around and become complete obsolete after ten years.
And that is why this flask makes me so happy.
Because Jay is bomb (Kanye is coolish too). Even though I would have absolutely no use for this flask, I still wannit! :)

You know you're at a good point in your life when:
A. You're at the gas station two minutes away from your house and you ask the worker if she's new.
and
B. When she replies, "Yes.." and gives you an odd look.
I've always wanted to become "a regular" somewhere. I just didn't think it'd be a gas station.
