That is all :) Pointless post. But not really, you get some cute Ned and Chuck. The last episode will be shown this Saturday, June 13, 10pm on ABC. I've already watched it on YouTube (since been taken down) because I couldn't stand it any longer. It's bittersweet and loose ends are still loose. I am so buying the Second Season when it comes out (already own the 1st, and have been watching it this week and gushing over my love for it).

You can watch Season 1 Episodes and the Last 3 Episodes of Season Two. Hurra!

More Conan video!

 And GONZO TELEVISION:

 

 

 

Two more days! :)




Happy 60th Birthday to my Dad (tomorrow, though we're celebrating today, and tomorrow)!

And thank goodness for Trader Joe's for having lentils.

I have awesome new glasses, because I am blind as a bat. Although I always wear contacts, I thought actually getting some cute frames for a change would be nice, to have the option. My sister says they give me character. I'm cool with that.

EDIT: Grr, stupid link, HERE ARE MY NEW GLASSES.

Eww, I smell like garlic. Last time I use garlic. And onions. Bleh.

 

I have missed him so much these past...months....
But seriously there is a void I'm waiting to be filled, and I won't have to stay up so late to see him, which is a plus. I wonder what his stage will look like, if they'll keep it the same or not, if the humor will be the same (oh please let it be). I wait for the scissor dance.

Oh and also, Conan will be on The Tonight Show, so gonna definatly watch that!

For beatlemaniac90 and her love of GIFs:



*snortgigglesnort*

And some promos





Gosh I love Beach Running Conan. I'm excited! :D

EDIT: Chickenfoot will be on June 5th, and you know what this means....CHAD SIGHTING!!!

I may be a little more than very behind the times, but I just watched "Pretty in Pink" for the first time...and hated the ending. I loved Duckie from the moment he walked on screen. I liked the characters...kinda. Nah, its like one of those moments where you go "If I had written this thing, I would have done it this way". I'm annoyed. And weirded out by the styles. Oh 80's, how you did the world wrong. But Duckie was cool, oh so cool.

I'm feeling really optimistic and I hope this lasts. I feel like I'm finding a new lease (sp?) on life, and I'm ready to get up and do!

Went to go look at the Bug today, gonna get a call, the kid who's selling it is from my high school, not all that surprising because I live in such a small town, but still, its cool. It might be a little funny, but actually it might make the whole experience better than I felt. Observation, the kid looks just like his Dad, who was there and was really cool.

The Bug is a really good price, and there are a few subtle things wrong (windsheld wipers, easy fix; blinkers moved by a previous owner, probably can't move them back, but no biggie, can get those working too; broken latch on the front; would need a paint job, but that's in the way future, and I'd totally keep it the orange :D

Book reading list for the Summer! I just finished Paper Towns by John Green last night. WOW! I loved it so much! This is his third book, I've also read his first two and its amazing to see him improve and evolve as a writer, he just hit the nail so dead on with this one, wowza! It's a good read, I recommend it highly.

1. Lewis Carrol - Alice in Wonderland
2. Jack - Kerouac - On the Road
3. Neil Gaiman - Stardust, Coraline, The Graveyard Book
4. Sylvia Plath - The Bell Jar
5. Mary Shelley - Frankenstein
6. Bram Stoker - Dracula
7. L. Frank Baum - The Wizard of Oz
8. Dave Eggers - A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius (I actually have been reading this one since Fall 06, no joke, I need to finish it)

Well that's all for now on the reading list. I'm still super jazzed for Paper Towns.

On a side note, why are my parents so dysfuntional? I just don't get it. This sounds horrible, but I hope that's something I don't inherite, though its not all one's fault, my Mom even I don't get at times, and my Dad isn't the greatest at understanding, he's stubborn, and that gets annoying in and on so many different levels. Oi.

The heat. Oh boy, the heat. And it hasn't even gotten to 100 degrees of summer yet...

Check out the Warpaint Community (I co-maintain)! I love this band, and I hope to go see them, maybe in July. If I'm ever so lucky :)

I hope everyone's doing well!

The only good Alt Station around here, its gone.

www.kwod.net

I'm just so sad. They announced it maybe late last night, early this morning. That was it.  No big warning. Now what am I gonna listen to? I'll have to lug around my CDs whereever I go. I mean a small sacrafice, but what other station played Foo Fighters, Nirvana, The Clash, Chilis.

Ooo. I realized I haven't posted in a while, only because I have nothing to post about. Not to say that my life has been uneventful, life has been happening, but It's been neither thrilling or exciting. I'm still majorly happy for summer! And hopefully some summer fun soon, shopping for fun fun dresses. Ladies and Gents, I come from a different decade and I think that decade is the 1960's, mix in the 1950's too, but mostly the 1960's. I love vintage everything, and reminded myself I had some Frank Sinatra music and am now enjoying his swinging music immensely.

And there was this super cute deep purple dress at Overstock.com and now its sold out, so that makes me very pouty. I look for a job this week. It is my quest. Although I shouldn't complain in any way, life is really good actually, I just need to not be fearful, and go out and enjoy the sun.

Andi Pandy! Though I never see her update anymore, we've been friends since...7th grade I think. She's way cool :D And I mean it.

Warpaint at The Bardot, 5/09/09

Found out via Warpaint that Bardot doesn't allow cameras.

They played a six song set that was unfortunately
marred by sound problems (feedback, etc.).

The setlist:
1. "Warpaint"
2. "Lissie"
3. "Beetles"
4. "Elephants"
5. "Majesty"
6. "Burgundy" (uptempo version like @ The Smell)

My today was amazing, how was yours? After a 3 day rain, the world is nice and moist and it is beautiful and sunny. All is right.

And my dog Pal is better! Not all better,  but he's totally walking and wagging his tail and very happy, which makes me happy. He has to be on antibodies and get some treatment for ticks, but woo! He's old so we were way overly worried, but he's a tough little thing, so he still lives at 17! He is now sleeping, and I am now happy. To the pictures!


The beautiful sunny day today.


The new flowers in my garden I planted today, yay!

My new no more sick dog, in three parts.


He posed.


Then gave up on me, and continued to lick his paw.


Then ignored me completely. But I still love him.


Oh, and here's some wonderful words by Jenny Lee, of Warpaint:

TDOA:Any band/musician you’d like to banish from the planet in an effort to save us all?

JL: Never.  I feel for all people creating anything, and who am I to judge?  I may not like it, but that doesn’t mean I have the right to say it’s bad.  What’s bad to me could be the best thing in the universe to another.  Perhaps even life changing.  So, on that note, to each her own. 

<3 Yay!
 

 

The dog might be okay! Apparently he's got this Tick thing, yeah, actual ticks that can release toxic chemicals (stay away from my dog you fools!) His bloodwork they did while we were there was all good (kidneys, heart) but they also found 3 ticks on him, and my Dad's been taking him on hikes he takes up in the mountains in the morning, so he's gotten some medicine to kill off the ticks and we'll get to pick him up at 5 (after I have an eye doctor appointment) and see how he is, they have him now for observation. Ooo! A phone call just came in from the Animal Hospital Place and they say he's walking now! And tired but improving!

:D Fiesta! :D

I gardened today with my Dad. I bought some daisies and a tropical flower and planted them. We also have potatoes and tomatoes and peppers. Yay summer. And I didn't at all mind getting dirty, I'm totally embracing nature and loving it. I can't wait until I can get some Indian clothes I saw, that's will be awesome.

Oh! And I found an Orange Bug Car for sale! For like $2000. And the parents said they might buy it for me, and then I'd pay them back of course, but yay! I'll get the car I've been wanting for cheap and oh, I'm excited if this pans though. Isn't it amazing how life can change like this so quickly, and you get really blessed sometimes? I feel like the luckiest person right now, hurra!

I hope everyone's days are going well!

Note to self: buy some fake silk daisies at the store and make oneself a hippie crown, just cause.

My dog may be dying. And I've been crying. And being upset for the past hour (when I found out). I did take him for a walk this morning and he was fine, but now he's been sleeping all day and he can't walk, and we're gonna take him to the vet tomorrow. But I've still been crying. I mean he's old, but this is still so depressing.

Please vote for Warpaint, it would make me happy if they win, because they would win a free master recording. Ends tomorrow (May 6th) at 11:59p PST.

There is Garth's Donut man, Wayne's World is one of those movies that I can watch time and time again, and never get sick of it , and it always makes me laugh out loud.

So much thanks to kiifrootloop for capping this for me. <3 I think I'll make an icon out of it eventually.





Ahh Dana Carvey. Another man on my unofficial "hot over 50" list (though he wasn't when he made this movie) *IMDB search* 54 in June?! Holy moley.

I'm going to sleep. I'm depressed. And hungry and tired. I'm just upset in general.

I love this song. :)


We were talking about the space between us all
And the people, who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion
Never glimpse the truth, then it's far too late, when they pass away
We were talking about the love we all could share, when we find it
To try our best to hold it there with our love
With our love, we could save the world, if they only knew

Try to realise it's all within yourself
No one else can make you change
And to see you're really only very small
And life flows on within you and without you

We were talking about the love that's gone so cold and the people
Who gain the world and lose their soul
They don't know, they can't see, are you one of them?
When you've seen beyond yourself then you may find
Peace of mind is waiting there
And the time will come when you see
We're all one, and life flows on within you and without you



Yay George!

Egypt

India

England

Hawaii

Just cause. :)

 

Song That Represents Your Life: The Beatles - Dear Prudence

 

I always knew it was a beautiful song, but wow. And I've become a monk, a recluse as of late, so I feel its pretty expressive of my life right now. J'adore.

Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play

Dear Prudence open up your eyes
Dear Prudence see the sunny skies
The wind is low the birds will sing
That you are part of everything
Dear Prudence won't you open up your eyes?

Look around round
Look around round round
Look around

Dear Prudence let me see you smile
Dear Prudence like a little child
The clouds will be a daisy chain
So let me see you smile again
Dear Prudence won't you let me see you smile?

Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence won't you come out to play?
 

 

I'm torn between styles of the 1950's and my 1960's hippiness. So strange. It's like my sense of style has bipolar, or I dunno. Maybe one doesn't have to fit in one particular style, and can just wear whatever the crap they want, no matter what "style" it fits into. I mean having one distint style in your life, is that really so important? Hmm, maybe the key is infact to find things that you like and mesh them together in your own creative way. This could be leading into something.

As I studied more and more about the Beatles, and therefore more and more about the 1960's and hippiedom, I fell in love with George, and also saw how much the hippie is really influenced by the Indian culture George fancied so much. Not to mention he's just a cool guy with a wonderful philosophy of life. And quite a snappy dresser.
( For fun...George and Kermit )
Such a recent lucky occurance of mine was finding an online Indian clothing/other nic-nack shop with the best clothes, not too expensive, all in my size  Also I found a couple of very cute 1950's inspired dresses, but I'm still so toward the India garb.
( My Personal Favorites )</div>( Apple Green )

( The Deep Purple One! )
 </div></div>
And spotted some music (Ravi Shankar, Benny Goodman Orchestra, Eddie Cochran, The Beatles, numerous movies on DVD) and the Converse shoes I've been wanting forever. But oh I'm poor because of the Coldplay tickets (!) for July! Boo, I hope everything is still there when I get the cash flow again.

Oh, oh, am I ready for Summer. My brain is totally fried. I'm in La La Land.

My crush on Paul continues. I'd like to think that at another time and place, we'd be very good friends.

If you've got like an extra hour or two on hand (for all the back pedaling) all the parts are worth the watch. Interesting indeed.


Part 1 of 14. BLAH :P

EDIT: I actually didn't mean to post this here, I meant for the Warpaint Comm I co-manage, but I kind of like it here, so here it shall stay. If you don't know who Warpaint is, chech them out. And show some love at the comm.
