Instead of just saying something like "blah blah blah, So this is my first post! OMG, SPECIAL!" I'm just going to get right into it.
I used to hate blogging. I thought it was for self-absorbed people who just like to brag about themselves. And maybe it is. I'm just using this as an opportunity to get better at writing boring shit.
That's what I usually think of my life as consisting mostly of: boring shit. Occasionally something worth mentioning happens, but I never really think "hey, i should blog about this!" because I figured nobody cares.
So this is just an attempt for me to write about myself and make it as interesting as possible. Okay, so maybe not interesting, but it's about me.
(ten minutes pass at this point while i'm trying to figure out what to write about first)
Okay, so there's this huge black fly buzzing around my room right now and I'm wanting to put an end to it really badly at this point because I want to go to bed and I don't want to think about this thing landing on my face at night while I'm sleeping. I don't have a fly swatter- instead, I have a dvd case. It'll have to do. The problem is, whenever I set the case down the damn fly decides to buzz around just long enough for me to get the case back in my hand at the ready, then takes off (probably laughing). I'm pretty determined to get this tiny asshole and put an end to its flying (and possibly laughing).
I've been in this habit recently of downloading like 8 cds a day. I may not actually know who the artist is of the music I'm downloading, but I like to be surprised when I just randomly download a cd and then listen to see if it's something I actually like.
Tonight I downloaded:
31Knots "Worried Well"
Kamikaze Sperm "Diesel & Kicks EP"
Wire "Object 47"
Backyard Tire Fire "The Places We Lived"
Jaguar Love "Take Me To The Sea"
The Broken West "Now Or Heaven"
This Car Up "Smile When You're Alone"
Bears "Simple Machinery"
Son, Ambulance "Someone Else's Deja Vu"
Bedouin Soundclash "Root Fire"
I'll post a very brief review of each at a later time once I listen to them all (but so far I'm really liking Backyard Tire Fire).
Anyway, I need to lose some weight. I'm getting lazy.
