She said I love the way you think but I hate the way you act.

I was totally productive today. I'm proud of myself. You would be too. Cleaned my room - like officially unpacked. I've lived here over a year now, it was time. But the boxes are gone, stuff is put away in the closet, posters are on the wall, stuff is shredded and in the trash - all while I listened to my audio book for class. Ha! Multi-tasking. I'm on disc 9 out of 14 so it was good day.
Except for the bookdrop thing. I'm all for bookdrops. I love them. They're easy and awesome, until you have to climb in one. I just felt like showering all morning. But we had so much stuff since we were closed for two days and it was overflowing. Blah. Lots and lots of checking in. But I just shelved - huzzah! And I actually shelved everything before noon so that was exciting. Then came back here intending to shower and nap but instead listening to my book and deciding it was time to unpack. I worked hard today. And actually feel a sense of accomplishment. So huzzah! to that.

But yeah, disc 9 of 14 on book #7. I'm thinking of burning the rest of them on my computer and uploading them to my ipod so I can listen on the go. A decent book so far, it's pretty intriguing but I still wish I could get through it faster so I can figure out what's really going on. There's a lot of backstory, so there's more things revealed in every chapter. I have to finish it just to figure out what everything means! I actually got this for a decent price off Amazon but a bunch of my classmates got it for free on some trial thing on there. Totally jealous. Anyway, tomorrow I need to go shopping, so then I can multitask as well if it's on my ipod. I need pop, cat food, human food, light bulbs, and more pop. I'm hoping that writing these down - well, putting these out there - will help me to remember what I need. But of course I'll forget.

Okay, one more thing, I think Facebook needs a "poke all" button. Just because so many people freaking poke me - it's a poke war basically - and it takes forever to hit "poke back". It'd be nice to just hit one button and be done.

"No Such Thing"

my favorite of his songs, other than "Daughter"

"Always" Rilo Kiley

although the song doesn't really start start until like 1:48, not sure why the intro is so long. kind of annoying. i always find myself skipping ahead. so that's my advice to you. if you actually listen to the song, skip ahead to around 1:40. from then on, awesomeness.

and since that one had a late start and was more like a half I'll hit you with another.
"Steal My Kisses" Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals

another late start, skip to 0:40.


out!

Well I am young but I have aged...

Oh the joys of Easter. Lots of food, lots of candy, time with family, now I'm in need of a giant nap. But it was a good day. Church, then second sister and I hid the eggs (with the easter bunny i mean) and it was like candy overload. We always get too much, but it's awesome that way. My brother enjoys it because he finds more and more candy throughout the week. After dinner the kids were running all over the place finding the candy and playing on the playground area. Dad built this playhouse thing with a slide and a sandbox and a merry-go-round with a bunch of swings...all for the grandkids of course. We didn't get any of this stuff, huh.
Anyway, there was so much food! and then we watched - well attempted to watch - Angels and Demons, but I had to keep changing the channel when the scary parts were on since kids were running in and out of the room, plus half the adults were napping. It was humorous. So, two crying children and a broken crockpot later I'm home and jamming out on my couch.


As promised, some indie favorites.

Rilo Kiley "Silver Lining" LIVE! awesome

recorded at a radio station, love it!

She & Him "In the Sun"

I seriously love this video. It amuses me. And I would have posted "Why Do You Let Me Stay Here" since its my favorite of theirs but I posted it a few weeks ago - the morbid disturbing night with Beck's "Loser".

Eh, I'll post it again anyway. Cause I like it and I can.
Sounds vaguely like Adam Sandler in "The Wedding Singer" ... "well I have a microphone and you don't..."
"Why Do You Let Me Stay Here" She & Him

i already commented on the morbidity in my last post of this, but i still laugh hysterically at 1:02.

"Life is Short" Butterfly Boucher

very catchy.

"Hurtful" Erik Hassle

gotta love itunes free music, i actually like this song a lot.

"The Fear" Lily Allen

I think if I were to break it down, Lily Allen and She & Him would probably be my favorite indie bands.

And I'm out. I don't think I have to go in tomorrow morning so I might actually get to sleep in! Which will really kind of suck for my coworkers since we were closed yesterday and there will be a lot to catch up on. I'll leave my ringer on in case they need me.
