Current Music:
The Books - Enjoy Your Worries, You May Never Have Them AgainThat might just be the longest song title I've archived in here. Reminiscent is a good word to describe this song and how i feel right now. It takes me through different stories every time i hear it. It may be why I like The Books so much; their work is so eclectic and amazing and it awakens parts of my memory that bring me to crests of every emotion, turn after turn. Every song feels like a beautiful microcosm of life. It's nonsensical because that is how things are but each little piece, no matter how arbitrary its' placement seems, works to create a bigger picture, a more fitting feeling. Repetition of the word "aleatoric" with different enunciations and single letters spoken over an heavily digitalized music woven with, of all things, roughly played cello, to actually
create aleatoric music. It's all i can do to keep from crying out from the roof tops in sheer auditory bliss. The Thought for Food album is so amazingly put together, each song segueing into the other; not a moment to sit and think too long about anything until after the album is done when the whole thing can hit you in the face five minutes later when all the irony, desperation, desire, sadness, elation and sense of community can fully settle in.
okay. . . that went to a weird place. My five year old self (heh, like I talked when I was five) is telling me, "If you love The Books so much. . . WHY DON'T YOU MARRY IT?!?" My only retort? I would if i could.
I'm. . . I'm a little weirded out by Akim today. Yeah, yeah, I read into everything far too much but. . .. Meh. I overuse ellipsis; this is me caring. He got upset, not really upset just perturbed, I suppose, at me for almost everything I did. How I feel, or don't, towards other guys, wearing his robe, laying in bed. It was weird. He was probably having a -ish day though I can't shake the feeling that something is wrong vis-a-vie him and me. I have to admit though, my feelings about things like that
always run the gamut of "I must have done something wrong."
Saw
Hostel today. I know, I'm always late on these sorts of things. Pop culture is something I am severely lacking in. Can't help it, I'm too much of a nerd. Aww, ferret shuffle. Anyway. . .. Watched it, sat back, watched it again. Wasn't as gruesome as I had been told to expect. And the cute, dorky, white kid had to die. Watching him be intimate was most the reason I put up with the first half. . . twice. He was adorable. Oh, that movie gave me a horrid
Jisatsu Sakkuru flashback near the end. Aye, good ol' fashioned Japanese horror. Heh, the other day, Frankie asked me about
Ichi the Killer. I was so proud. For once, I'm the more knowledgeable about a subculture. I'm going to gloat for a while.
I keep cleaning my room but it is never clean. Blegh.
