When my little sister heard about the upcoming FOBlink-182 tourvaganza, she got very big-eyed and said:
"I want to go to that concert. More than anything in the world."
"Huh," I said, intrigued. "Do you want it even more than, say, world peace?"
She nodded solemnly.
"You do know that makes you a bad person, right?" I asked.
"No!" she replied, shaking her head. "Because that concert will make world peace happen."
I love you, Little Sister.
Guyssssss it was so WARM today! So warm there were kids out playing on the street all day! So warm I got to lie out on my back deck and absorb the sunshine like a furry purry kitty! So warm I didn't even put on socks! (I pretty much always wear socks- brightly-patterned knee socks, for preference- so this is a big deal.) I've got my window wide open and I can hear frogs somewhere out there and it is SUMMER FUCK YEAH FINALLY. \o/
I mean, it snowed again a few days ago, but whatever. SUMMER.
I have been feeling kind of ridiculously optimistic about things lately. This is partially due to FUCK YEAH SUMMER, but also because I have decided to spend this summer Being Productive, and so far I'm doing pretty well! I've been writing and practicing bass and working like a motherfucker and it feels really good to be busy because I think I've been kind of doing nothing for a while. Even during the school year.
I've also been reading a lot, which I choose to count as Being Productive because, um, reading is good for the brainmeats? I dunno. Here are some of the books I've read, complete with pocket-sized reviews!
( Books, books, books. )
I'm currently reading Out by Natsuo Kirino (delightfully creepy and full of social commentary) and The Lady Elizabeth by Alison Weir (interesting, but it's really easy to tell she usually writes nonfiction- her style is kind of clumsy and she can never seem to decide whose head she wants to be in). Books are fab.
