Why Mt. Dew Big Slams Are NOT For Caffeine Newbies

Why Mt. Dew Big Slams Are NOT For Caffeine Newbies

I’m baaaaaaacccccckkkkk.

And there was much rejoicing.

Yay.

I GOT TICKETS TO MISS SAIGON!!!!!

I ROCK!!!!!!!!

I’m so excited, I’ve wanted to see Miss Saigon forever and it is coming to Hancher Auditorium in October.

I have worn out only 3 cds. The Phantom Of The Opera (which is a 2cd set) and Miss Saigon. We played Miss Saigon music in marching band--so did a lot of other high school. “Bui Doi” was the popular choice.

The only thing I want to see more than Miss Saigon is Phantom. And I don’t think it is gonna happen. [insert Eibisch sad face]

But, dudes, MISS SAIGON!!!!!!!!!!

I ROCK!!!!!!!!!

I am so up on myself the last week or so. It’s a good feeling because........

I ROCK!!!!!!!

Can I get a whoop--whoop?

Okay, that wasn’t very ROCK-worthy, but it was fun to say!

Well, my brother started school Aug. 26. He likes school. I am not sure why. All he will tell us is that he likes it, drinks chocolate milk and (on the first day) his bus was in a fender bender. Oh, and today, he told me the names of the kids he plays with: Mario, Clara and Ellie. Clara and Ellie are blond, by the way. Le Prince likes the blondes.

Is that some kind of Y chromosome defect?

My mom is teaching me clarinet. I don’t know why. It just kind of came up one day and I said hey--why not?

NEVER let my mom teach you clarinet. She is such a perfectionist. You know I play French horn. The ambesures (I have no clue how to spell that. It’s how you hold your lips/mouth when playing.) are way different. Oh, but try telling that to Ms.-I-have-never-played-brass-a-day-in-my-life-but-you-will-bow-down-before-my-woodwind-expertise!

Why do I get myself in these situations?

Okay, I am totally obsessed with Weezer’s “Photograph.” I have been playing it all day.

I. Can’t. Stop!

If you want it
Come and get it
But you gotta learn to reach out there and grab it...

Yep, I need help.

And I watched the first “Island In The Sun” video and, you know, I don’t think I’ve seen Brian look hotter!

Yep, I’m all about dorky brunettes.

I love this new (I don’t know how new it is--new to me) club, Apt 211. They have rock, alt rock, indie rock--whatever. They have a big show on October 19 (I think) and they are being all secretive and not saying who is coming. So all the kiddies have been going wild with speculation. I don’t have a clue.

I suppose Goat Punishment would be asking to much?

I know y’all are like Goat Punishment?!?!?! What?!?!

Just follow the link. All will become clear.

I have a job interview tomorrow. It’s at a telephone company for operators. I don’t think I’ll get it because I don’t really have a good phone voice. I sound like I’m twelve. I look young, too. Oh, sure, someday that will be a good thing. But when your younger-by-3.5-years sister gets waved into an ’R’ rated movie and you get carded................NOT a good thing!

I am not being pessimistic. I am being pragmatic. So far all of my interviewers have been absolutely immune to my charm. All guys. All blond. Coincidence? I think not. Perhaps this interviewer will be a dorky brunette who will succumb to my “You know you want to hire me--I ROCK” vibes.

It could happen.

If you need it
You should show it
Cause you might play so monastic that you blow it...

I am ADDICTED to that song! And you know what other Weezer song I really like? “Smile.” Oh, and Rivers Cuomo’s “Long Time Sunshine.”

Because I embrace my inner emo-pop dork.

Bootsie started her new job tonight. So I’m bored. I’m sitting here at 10:00 at night, in my cool pajamas with the cherries, eating Ritz crackers, nursing a Mt. Dew with my hair (which is down and loose and, inexplicably, rather curly) blowing in the gentle breeze. And I can’t help but think............could I possibly ever ROCK more than I did today?

And the answer I receive is...............probably.

Listening To: Didn’t you just read my entry? Weezer’s “Photograph”!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a happy day!
