preparations for the thailand vacation are underway: this weekend we will be renting "the beach" and squealing with delight over leo's antics with wacky hippies. i can't wait to be on the beach with my fruity drink. not here with the cold and the stink. yo.

stuff i'm thinking about:

1. why is it that we can only appreciate our lives from far away? i...

hope thailand is cool. ive heard it is. be sure to try the drugs and prostitutes! just kidding that makes me sound uneducated.
1. its hard to keep things in perspective when you are constantly adjusting and new things become status quo and less noticable. for me at least
2. dee dee ramone. i dont know if he counts cause the rest of the ramones are all sort of monkeyish
3. the point is to vacation in cool places in southeast asia?

well, you look 8, but anyway...

i think old jesus, if jesus he be, may be doing a santa claus gig at the mall. not sure if thats true, but how cool would that be. I don't really drive out into jesus land too much anymore so i haven't seen Young jesus in a pretty good while. He was kind of a fair weather jesus anyway, and its been a little to cold for the fiber of his faith i guess.

I think mohomed's kink, as far as the zealot at albertson's was concerned, was probably children. which is funny since mohomed's wife was actually quite a biy older than he was. Thats what i love about irrational people, they are just so, well, irrational. They don't let their beliefs get all hung up on facts and truth. so refreshing.
oh, and btw, it wasn't so much a bumper sticker as a big sticker just under the driver's door so you would immediatly see the driver when you saw the sticker. i think maybe he was just trying to get people to stop borrowing his car.

hmm weird. sounds like korean suerkraut kinda. did you know in the 40's there was some sort of anti german nationalism law that changed german sounding names like sauerkraut to something wholesome and american. they called it victory cabbage! haha anyways. i hope the rest of your job is swell. it sounds like a good experience

mao would be quite cool. if i had a way to get the pic of the chinese family onto the computer, it would already be there.

AWW!! Girl, thank you so much for the tidy tid bit.

One of the first tapes, maybe it was the second tape I ever bought, U2 was first though, was Bjork's debut album. Well, the ribbon detached from the blue thing and for some reason, for years, I have been carrying it around with me like a relic, never fixing it or buy a Debut cd. For some reason I fixed it with tape a couple of days ago. I listened to the entire tape once in the bedroom and I was ecstatic. I had weird, deja vu, yucky, nostaligic, I don't want to go there feelings from when I first bought the tape. . .and I had one last listen in the car and it popped.

*sigh* oh well. I wonder when I'll get around to fixing it. . .or even buying a new cd!

Apple can kiss my ass. . .I have a love hate relationship with them. . .oh but the new iMacs are so cute. . .yuck!

you write so well! I'm quite impressed.

thanx for the support. and trust she's looking. but thats just the thing "no one" at all is hiring. and her folks are starting to drive her nutz (mainly her dad). if she had a job, she would be living on her own.

ohhh a fancy picture update. it is very nice.
i would not have thought you were irish. um good job
m1stab:
no way new orleans was 75. it was cold there too. I had a jacket on when i saw John Cusack. Granted there was no snow, but i think you may be stretching the truth a bit. i'll think about your lovely exagerrations when i have taquitos.

seoul --> tokyo --> seattle --> memphis --> new orleans

leave here at 10:55 am, arrive finally at 6:15 pm, same day, although 23 hours will have passed. time travel is a strange thing. i'm used to living in the future.. now i'm flying into the past. oddly fitting.

7 days then do it all again, and back to the future...

i'm so sorry. frown

but i must say, i think you are my new sg soulmate. when i was little i was obsessed with michael jackson. for a while my sister kept track of how many times i watched "the making of thriller", but after 80-something she stopped counting. she bought it for me this past christmas, and even now whenever i watch it if i'm feeling bad in some way it makes me feel better.
