RANDOM CONFESSION..
Today, when I was driving my car, all I could think of was stepping outside
and grabbing a chunk of ice to cool off my SCALDING cup of green tea.
It was undrinkable.
All I wanted to do was drink the damn thing.
Then, I got a vision of
a cat peeing in the snow,
the filth of peoples shoes,
and the plain old filthy gutter
and
decided to drink it 20 minutes later.
My tea is ALWAYS too hot.
What a tease.
I also drove around with broken windshield wipers which was impossible because that white gross film of snow residue made it impossible to see out of the window. It sucked. Then I went to the gas station and they tightened the screw and they started to work again. If only I knew that 2 days ago when I drove haphazardly in the blizzard around Brooklyn.

IF YOU DONT KNOW, NOW YOU KNOW...
How cold is it outside today? Pretty freaking cold.
I did stuff that I had to do which always feels good, ya know-- being productive instead of lagging.
If someone were to cut open my head and take a peak inside I think that it would look like one of those kids rooms you see on tv shows where stuff is just piled up to the ceiling. You know the type that needs a do not disturb sign hanging from the doorknob? The absolute mess, thats about to pile over! Its filled with a plethora of thoughts, lists, reminders and gifts that are owed. ADHD at its best.
Last night the world lost bbm for what seemed to be an eternity. It made me realize just how much on rely on it for communicating. Suddenly I saw what it was like to own an iphone minus the cool apps obvs. It wasnt so bad. Am I running to go get one? NAH. Did I survive without bbm? Yep. Is texting impersonal and annoying at times? Mmhmm. But did my inbox of texts compensate? Yeah.
Today R told me that If I have an easy career in psychology if I decide to leave interior design. It didnt shock me in the least bit. Its not the first time someone has said that to me. I guess I can see it. I like to listen to people, I like to make them feel comfortable-- I can read between the lines and call it like it is. I dont judge. People open up to me, not necessarily close friends or family members either. We are talking all sorts of people. Im known as the vault.
Unfortunately with that comes the downside. I see too much. I can see right thru people and situations. I can tell the good from the bad, but theres always that one that slips in there. Were all human right? Sometimes I wish that I wasnt able to. Sometimes I think being absolutely clueless is the way to go, ignorance is bliss. But -- the good usually outweighs the bad. Besides, who would my friends have to talk to, right? Right!

ON WITH THE NEW...
Im still compiling my best albums of 09, I know that Im lagging but ill post it eventually.
This year has brought great joy and sorrow.
Sadly, BRITTANY MURPHY died yesterday of a heart attack at the young age of 32. What a pity. She was a great actress given the roles she took on. Sure I have my doubts about her cause of death, but, Id never comment, because, we should all just let her rest in peace. Its terrible to think that her family and loved ones will be spending the holidays without her. CLUELESS was my favorite movie back in the day. We all quoted her, and so many other great lines from that movie. Poor girl.
It seems that as I get older, I come to meet many different characters and shades of people. Some I could leave at hello, others I wonder how I went on for so long without knowing. I definitely have my share of funny stories to go with the latter. Not to sound heavy, but every day that we are on this planet is a miracle. Every day that we wake up healthy is a blessing. I think we all lose sight of that sometimes. I know that I do. This year, I plan on being more aware of all that I am blessed with on a daily basis.
SOMETIMES.. I wash my hands over a dozen times in a day just to make sure that I am germ free and clean.
SOMETIMES.. I can spend 100 dollars in the pharmacy on toiletries & nonsense when I couldve easily spent 20 dollars getting what I really needed.
SOMETIMES.. I laugh so hard that I wake up with my stomach muscles aching and sore.
SOMETIMES.. I see myself as an old lady recapping my stories to my bored grandchildren while they yawn but listen bec they have to.
SOMETIMES.. I try to explain my sixth sense to people but they just dont understand what I mean.
SOMETIMES.. Im too busy being anti everything to realize that anti isnt always the way to be, but then I see the light again :p
SOMETIMES.. I wonder if Ive lost my writing mojo and wonder if its just been transferred somewhere else.
SOMETIMES.. I bite my lip when Im nervous.
SOMETIMES.. Im convinced that I have arthritis in my right index finger because the top knuckle refuses to crack and it hurts like a mother______.
PS- In a moment of weakness and un-anti (is that even a word?) behavior, I bought a pair of black UGGS. Kill me. im not happy about it but hey, we are all human, not everyone can be perfect all the time!
I KNOWWWWW.

A-MUSE ME..
If theres one band that I consistently love, it would be MUSE. I love a band that is recognizable from the minute you hear them whether you know the song or not. You can always count on them to step it up while remaining true to their sound. MATTHEW BALLAMY was born with a gift. I also like that they dont crank out their albums one after another like so many others do. I feel like when bands do that it compromises the quality of their work.
Their new album rocks. Check it out and if Im wrong tell me, after all-- I welcome a good debate.
TIME IS RUNNING OUT is one of my favorite tracks of all time. Yeah, its old but still off the charts. The latest is called THE RESISTANCE. Im loving UPRISING right now, but the whole album is pretty much awesome! Its the first album that the band actually produced THEMSELVES! This album has more of an electronic sound which I respect, because they arent afraid to experiment.
Someone told me that I was channeling KENNEDY the other night with my new glasses. it didnt feel very flattering. Remember her from back in the day? The MTV veejay? Back when MTV actually played current music videos consistently? I wish we could go back to those days. Reality TV has taken over the world. Dont get me wrong, Im a sucker for that crap. JERSEY SHORE is my latest guilty pressure, but remember when writers actually had to come up with good stories lines and news worthy material? Boy have things changed...
Sadly, Imeem has merged with myspace and Im having a hard time finding another site to stream music with, Ive lost touch w technology due to school, Ill figure it out, but for now, heres some youtube clips :)

SOMETIMES...
SOMETIMES I want to curl up into a ball under my covers and scream as loud as I possibly can..
SOMETIMES I find myself in awkward situations and have no idea how to get myself out of them..
SOMETIMES I feel like the parking lot attendant at the lot near my school knows more about my schedule then I even do...
SOMETIMES I get the strangest flashbacks out of nowhere, completely unprovoked and they are so vivid...
SOMETIMES I wish I could just press pause in the middle of a convo just to regroup and get my thoughts together...
SOMETIMES THE GOO GOO DOLLS say it best, sometimes theyre just flat out annoying and cheesy...
SOMETIMES I think about doing something really drastic with my hair, like cutting it off or going blonde...
SOMETIMES I honestly believe that I am a SUDOKU mastermind...
SOMETIMES my heart breaks for a woman that I know, who is so sick and yet always manages to smile and ask me how I AM...
SOMETIMES we should all just stop and smell the roses and the fresh air.
PS- Christmas trees sold in the street devastate me. Have we all forgotten how badly we need those trees in the ground? Those trees clean and purify our air. Im no tree hugger but I am rational. Im all for the holiday spirit and all... but wont a fake tree suffice? I find it pitiful after the holidays when all of those trees are left on curbs all over the place rotting away, waiting to be picked up and destroyed. Sometimes they stay there for weeks, even months, discarded like old trash. It hurts my heart. :( I wish people could see that side of the coin. Oh well, to each his own, right?
