oreos and milk

i think tonight is an oreos and milk night.
i'm excited about painting my room.
and i think if i try to busy myself with stuff like that,
i'll in turn make myself happier and maybe feel like
i'm not missing out on big stuff.
there's a few things that i want to happen
and a few things that won't happen
a few things that i don't want to happen that will
so ..
i think tonight is an oreos and milk night.
for sure.

In Chicago

it's been a little while since i got a song under my belt
that i can just listen to over and over again.
i'm always listening to music
but that feeling that you get when you listen to a song
and by the first note you're hooked for at least 4 plays right in a row,
that's the reason right there i listen-
for songs like this:

In Chicago via Purevolume
In Chicago via Myspace
In Chicago via Facebook [video!]

so as far as i see it
the opportunity to listen to such genius work of joey hendrickson.
is really unavoidable.

"You don't know how to drive? I thought you were 16? When I was 16 I was driving"
"I'm going to camp next week so give me your address; we're write letters!"
"I have to work."
"Well, I mean, I'll be in New York so you can just call me or something if you ever go out there .. we'll see each other sometime soon so it'll be okay "
"Dear Shayna- Don't throw this away. Read me first before throwing me away! This is REALLY worth your time! Let me know if you're interested. "
"One last question"
"Your grades are here."
"You just have to wait for the AP letter"
"When do you get your schedule?"
"I'll be out of town a lot so.."
"My boyfriend's coming in to see me"
"We're going to counseling later on this week"
"I don't want you to do it if it's boring but.."
"There's a meeting on Tuesday"
"Why aren't you ready yet?"
"Maybe some other time, alright?"
"I think we need to set something up"

"I've been up to a lot.. things have just been so busy. You?"

summer.

the inevitable question of "what's going on in your summer?" keeps getting asked and i keep answering with a mumble and a stumble and then come up with some half-assed sentence like
"well, i'm learning .. how .. to drive .. in july .. and that's .. it .." "you aren't working?" "no .. i have a job during the year on Sundays.." "are you going out of town any?" "uhm .. no." "well .. driving will be fun! that's fun. have fun!" and then they tell me about their travel stories or their work stories.

so i'm thinking that with all the big things going on in people's lives, i gotta fit somewhere. the problem is, i don't know what i want to happen. i don't know. i thought i had a handle on what was up but i just want to get into the car again and drive. i want to get onto 271 and turn up the music and put down the windows and just drive. maybe that's the problem - i just want to run away.

Alright!

So this morning I woke up at like 6:30 for some reason and I had no motivation to get UP so I got the closest to winning a game of solitaire on my iPod I've ever gotten and then I went back to sleep.

Then when I woke up again, to what I was sure would have been like 5 hours later, at NINE-thirty, my mind just raced around for a few minutes of early-morning babble and then I realized something great. I got hit with a ton of brick type of inspiration that had hit a few days back.

"A Human Mobile" Eh? Eh? Yeah. I'm sharing it here since I think if I share it anywhere else, there would be modifications, alterations and I'd end up with a totally different dress to wear and I wouldn't want to shoot again and thus the rut. Howeverrrrrr, no one talks back here so. Woohoo.

Next thing is is to put it in action. But we'll let it simmer for awhile.
