“The choice for (`Past The Mission’) had to be somebody that represented rage and anger because this is all about a girl trying so hard to work through being a victim,” she said. “I felt like for a guy to be supporting her, it had to be a guy that could rage, because then it would really mean something if he could be tender. Trent is–well, you can’t be in all that much rage and pain unless you have a very big heart.” – tori amos

hehehe

 

rofl

“But Bono’s songwriting craft was not why he was being honored. The EIF awarded Bono for his humanitarian work promoting debt relief and AIDS awareness in the Third World, and for his work with Amnesty International, Greenpeace International and other organizations.

The evening’s presenters and performers, including Kevin Spacey, Ray Romano and Kevin Nealon, took turns praising Bono’s efforts, though none of their kind words matched those by comedian Drew Carey on the red carpet: “I’m so glad that God sent Bono down to save us from our sins,” he joked. “Do you want to see my wristband? It says, ‘What would Bono do?’ He’s like Christ, I’m telling you. He’s like Christ and Bob Dylan rolled into one.”

hahahahahh

 

i forgot to mention this last night. listened to invincible in the car with my mom yesterday. her verdict “it’s good but not great”…and i’ve decided that every single song on the album is like 2 minutes too long. lol. oh, and my moms verdict is based on the songs i didn’t fastforward LOL…no speechless, no lost children, no dont turn around (or whatever it’s called), i might have fast forwarded a 4th one too… but whatever. and i really like track one… “unbreakable” is it?…i dunno why, but i enjoy it immensly. or is it emmensly?

so then today on the way back to school i listened to tool’s lateralus…wow that’s a great album. i haven’t really had a chance to LISTEN to it… i’ve heard it many times, it had been on in my room after i got it this summer. but every time i tried to LISTEN to it, like on headfones or in the car, i just get real tired of the epicness of the songs, and just can’t take anymore. But listened to it all today… and yeah, so great. it’s still kinda hard to listen to, cuz the songs all sound sorta similar… aenima was broken up by alot of those weird interludes, and the songs kinda all sounded different so even tho it’s just as long as lateralus, it’s easier to listen to. but yeah, lateralus…super. track 10…uh “disposition” is very trent-reznor-fragile-era-ish…in particular the background. not the rest of it. but the background sounds are right off the fragile…probably from la mer or the great below maybe… i dunno. they just sounded really familiar, and really trent like. i think i had a dream about trent last night, but not sure.

but anyway. i’m home. i should probably see if i have any homework LOL.

damn blogger. here is a short version of what i said this morning when blogger lost all my posts
1. was watching making the band, win a date with otown episode…and ashley had to marry his date at a chapel by fat elvis. and he was all confused, like “this can’t be for real” ROFL it was so funny. then one of the other otown ppl did a skydiving simulator where u get blown around by these big fans. it looked so fun. jacob’s date smacked his ass alot.
2. trl did an all britney video countdown… has she even HAD 10 videos?!
3. saw a clip of the new brandy video. priest had mentioned the arcade-ish quality of MJ’s new cd and i realized that alot of new modern pop music, like the brandy song, and the new george michael song, have that same “i’m a video game” quality to it… which makes me wonder why MJ’s hasn’t made as big of an impact as it should be…but what do i know, i dont listen to the radio, so who knows what kind of impact he’s really had.

so went to the mall with my mom (omg dana carvey is SO hilarious…old SNL with him as george bush sr talking to bob dole about how bob’s campaign was an embarassment, and he’s acting like a snake OMG he’s so funny)….i’ve realized i have a HUGE coat fetish. every coat i see i want. i got a new one today hehe. black suade long coat…not heavy, so it’ll be good for the warmer days at school. it’s so nice. and it was 20 bucks hehe… and i got shoes. while most girls seem to love shoes and shoe shopping, i hate it. i think all shoes are ugly, i don’t want such ugly things on my feet. they all look horrible. and i hate shopping for them. i’ll take another coat 🙂

so then we went to dinner at Fat Bobs downtown. i almost had a heart attack cuz one of the waiters looked JUST like Rhett Warrener LOL. i’m like GOTTA TELL ADRIENNE!!! lol

and now i’m freezing, so i need to go upstairs before i die.

the past two weeks i’ve been wondering and commenting on how it’s possible that i’ve been taking 45 minute showers. it makes no sense. i have even been skipping steps, not using any conditioner. yet i get out of the shower and it’s 8:45… makes no sense. it’s a time warp.

well you wanna know why i’ve been taking 45 minute showers? CUZ I CAN’T TELL TIME!!!!!! My alarm goes off at 8:20…i get in the shower by 8:30….I’m done by 8:45….which is 15 minutes NOT 45…. I’m such a retard!!!!!! ROFL…makes PERFECT SENSE NOW cuz there was NO WAY i was taking 45 minute showers…lol. i can’t believe how much of a retard i am.

 

friday five
1. What was the first thing you ever cooked? probably macaroni and cheese….or soup or something like that. i dunno, with the microwave now a days, it’s hard to remember, cuz i’ve cooked lots of things in a microwave since we got one…years ago
2. What’s your signature dish? rofl, mac n cheese LOL
3. Ever had a cooking disaster? (tasted like crap, didn’t work, etc.) Describe. i almost burned the house down making pancakes…i try not to cook so haven’t had a big disaster… oh the hambugers at my non party were pretty bad but 1. i didn’t make them and 2. ppl ate them anyway LOL
4. If skill and money were no object, what would make for your dream meal? i don’t really like food, so i dunno… steak i guess, and one of those massive baked potatos….
5. What are you doing this weekend? going home today, going to dentist tomorrow, going back to school

 

first of all. i just got an email….from the international beer house….yes, that’s right, the one in canada, that the fab four visited on many occasions in summer 2000….www.internationalbeerhouse.com ….HOW THE HELL DID I GET THIS?!?! ROFL…i’m thinking that if they did a search for themselves the fab four site would come up ROFL….this is too funny. apparently they have a new location…haha. it reminds me of how we walked there the one day (i think me eric and jeff did…maybe i’m wrong) and found that IBH was now a jewelry store LOL. but anyway, how odd. they sent me email. haha…yep i just checked…. “They left right after that, up to the International Beer House (or as the four lovingly call it..IHOP).” – from the fab four site hehe. comes up as hit 19 if u search for ibh lol

secondly….my mom called yesterday and said that i have a valentine waiting for me at home from Jeff. this is maybe the 3rd time he’s sent me a valentine…and he sent me an xmas card this year too.
mom: jeff sent you a valentine
me: oh that’s cool
mom: why does he like you so much?
me: oh cuz i’m great.
mom: *laugh* but you don’t even really know each other
me: i’ve known him for 7 years
mom: oh

isn’t my mom nice… but anyway i was thinking about jeff last night, and wondering why he’s so nice to me. cuz i mean, jeff is gorgeous, and he’s so nice, and he even likes my grandparents LOL…like, i consider my only real date to be with jeff, even tho it wasn’t a date. he just took me out in michigan and bought me dinner. but that’s more than has ever happened to me with so called boyfriends etc…LOL…and i’ve known him for 7 years, which is longer than alot of people i know. but anyway what was i saying.. oh yes. jeff has always been super nice to me, he offered to fly me to michigan if MJ toured the US with HIStory and he said the offer still stands. and he offered to fly me down to Texas where he is now to visit. and while it hasn’t happened, the offer was still nice. i realize he’s a man slut… LOL. other man sluts i’ve met i’ve always been really irritated at, thinking like…how can girls fall for that. but yeah.. jeff does the same shit LOL. he’s so nice cuz he knows what to say lol. i don’t even know what i’m saying anymore. i had alot more good shit to say last night when i was thinking about all this but my comp was off… and danielle keeps talking to me about jonathan davis and i keep losing my train of thought. i can’t multitask at the moment, my brain is all wacky. 2 different songs are playing at me, i’m trying to think of what i wanted to say about jeff, and she’s talking to me, plus i’m hungry, and ahhhh it’s driving me insane!!! i should just delete this post, since it’s WORTHLESS. and my left arm/hand is numb.

 

so i’m home. could my internet here suck anymore?! that’s the question…

so i’m watching the vh1 show driven about marilyn manson. he fascinates me….i just find his whole situation and the whole…ehm…spectacle of it all, just so interesting. in a way that is different then like how “mansonites” worship him and all that…but anyway, this show is super great. and there was some old bandmember that was fired on xmas in rehab, and yeah he was hot…..and of course all the really nice shots of trent throughout the show, those are nice bonuses too hehehe…yay trent. yah i still want to see manson live. too bad i wasn’t able to last year when i actually had tickets. eh next time.

but i’m bored. doing laundry etc….it’s freezing down here. and yeah. bored.

there’s not much i hate more than being woken up by people.

and oh yeah, it’s valentines day. i wouldn’t have realized it except when i left my room this morning there was this piece of paper that said Harry Potter on it in front of my door…. so i picked it up and it was a valentine from bill. isn’t that nice? my worst valentines day ever was when i actually had a boyfriend…haha 😛

Headline: “Bush decides to oust (sp?) Hussien (sp?)”…. see THIS is what i don’t get. i don’t get how OUR AMERICAN PRESIDENT can just DECIDE to remove some other leader from office….this is why i’m taking international politics….i’m sure someone will bring this up in class… in 15 minutes. shit, i should leave now LOL.

 

carolyn is gonna like what i have to say here….since she’s all into how great english/literature is…

but i was in clinical psych class and proff said something about “big brother” watching everyone….and it made me think. it’s really fascinating how much certain scholarly works…be it literature, or psych, or medicine…end up pervading society. so many things we say, or refer to have basis in works of literature…. like “big brother” for example….had 1984 never been written, that wouldn’t be a term anyone ever used. kinda amazing. and in the area of psych…the amount of Freud that gets used in everyday language is amazing…even though Freud’s theories have been critiqued, and discounted in some areas….he was so important, and had such influential ideas that they’ve become common place…. i dunno. i just kinda found it interesting.

anyway. i gotta do this interview thing in a half hour. i was gonna go right there after class and sit there for a half hour, but ended up talking to this girl and walking back to the townhouses with her. it’s so blah windy cold out…but sunny…hate that. it tricks you. i can’t wait for it to get just a big warmer so i dont have to wear a coat anymore. but then i wish it would just stay at that temp… like 50 is good.

 

few more things….
1. macs suck. i don’t know how anyone can stand to use them. i especially don’t know how people like trent reznor do all their music on them. or maybe it’s just the macs we have here, that are so fucking unstable, you can’t do a damn thing on them. you do something and it freezes, crashes, you name it…i dont think i’ve been on a mac once that hasn’t had a problem so far this semester. i think if i was a musician or artist using a mac and spent all this time on a project to have the mac suddenly fuck up and die…i’d be really pissed, to the point i’d become violent. i NEVER have that many problems with my PC…
2. listening to “candyass”…it’s been a loooong time since i last listened to it. i forgot how much i love it. so totally digging “fetisha” and “Gender” right now…and it totally reminds me of summer. i know, i say that about almost EVERY cd that i love to death, it just happens that i get them in the summer, or get into a band in the summer…but this one, it reminds me of driving in a car, really sunny outside,…with melinda. APC reminds me of driving around in a car, with eric, in the rain…and APC also reminds me of spring, moreso than summer (except the rain thing) cuz we had the mp3s playing for the last month of school sophomore year, and during finals…but yeah i dunno. me and danielle have been having orgy moments since Jay’s song appeared on the internet. and we realized that in 2 weeks it’ll be a year since Orgy weekend….i think me danielle and adr should have an orgy party. except adr doesn’t live here so…dunno how that’s gonna happen LOL. they need to finish the damn album and tour.

ok there was something else to say but i gotta head out to do my thing.

 

why must my internet die every night between 10 and 11pm?…..like COMPLETELY die…i hate geneseo.

“so precious you know this hate of mine exploded. i’m so deranged you know, i will never be the same” is still one of my all time fav orgy lines…

the word “orgy” has pretty much totally lost all sexual meaning for me. lol. it doesn’t even occur to me to be a weird thing that i wear a shirt that says “orgy” on it… or in everyday conversation i’ll say “orgy” and that some people may not understand what i’m talking about, and think i’m talking about a sexual thing…hahah.

wow suddenly i’m really tired.

sabres game is on… this is by far one of the more entertaining games this season. it’s still the first period, both rob ray and eric boulton got in fights. then there were 2 or 3 other almost fights/group altercations that led to a total of 5 sabres in the penalty box and 4 in the devils penalty box. LOL 5 PLAYERS IN THE BOX!!!!! ROFLMAO the bench was empty. and then we scored, for once! so, so far so good.
finished going through all the lines of data that i had to do for research this week. me and my partner figured out we checked a total of 13,612 characters of data….yeah. that’s ALOT.

it’s SOOOOOOO windy out. and i got 2 valentines packages today. from my mom and aunt carol. so that was cool.

 

 

air is blowing from somewhere, and moving things…. last night as i sat here cold air was blowing on my foot…today all the wires from all my electronic devises behind my desk keep moving from air blowing on them. the windows aren’t open, i don’t get it. wtf. kinda scary…

i’ve had “slept so long” in my head all night, and all day. except for the 5 min that i had “if” by janet jackson in my head this morning.
it is hurricaning outside again, but luckily it’s not raining. i gotta go continue to read line after line of data at 5 tonight. which i dont understand why we have to do, since we have to read it off scantrons…why can’t they just get scanned. but whatever. we have 100 more scantrons to go through (we did 64 yesterday, took us 2 hrs)…blah. then i gotta interview a counselor on wednesday for my punishment paper.

i was thinking about what makes mer de noms by a perfect circle one of the greatest cds i own…and i decided, it’s because it has something for everyone. for the more “hard rock” types you got “the hollow”, “magdalena”…maybe “thinking of you” and “thomas”…and then for the “adult contemporary” types, you got “orestes”, “3 libras” and “brena”…maybe “rose” and “sleeping beauty”….you got the more or less instrumental tracks “renholder” and “over”…and then for the bible thumpers, you got “judith”….

 

today is bill’s birthday. so leah made him a cake. yeah the 4 of us almost ate the whole thing LOL. me and bill both had like 1/4th pieces of the cake. it was good. yum.

 

 

eric and mary came down tonight. mary hadn’t seen the house yet, so gave her the tour etc. headed up to soundgarden to do the cd thing. they don’t usually have much, and their used cds are expensive…but whatever. they lie. every time i go there they lie to me. i ask them if they have promo posters of *insert band/cd here* that i can have, and they tell me no. so this time i saw the friggen poster tube that said NOTHING RECORDS on it, and i ask the guy “do you have any of the nin promo posters and stuff that came with the new cd”…no we only have the posters in the rack (normal, for sale posters)… so i’m like THE POSTER TUBE FROM NOTHING RECORDS IS RIGHT THERE. IT SAYS NOTHING ON IT IN BIG BLACK LETTERS! so I actually did say, oh well i saw the poster tube over there so i figured i’d ask. and he’s like no we don’t have any. LIAR! WHAT THE FUCK ELSE WOULD THEY SEND YOU IN A POSTER TUBE?!?!?!?!? asshole.

so anyway, went to ames and wegmans to get snacks, came back here, watched tv…exciting lol. we watched janet jackson and michael jackson greatest tv moments, then popupvideo “scandals” with manson, nin, madonna, mj and sex pistols.. it was a new episode, informative as always lol. then watched mad tv while waiting for nbc news to end for SNL, which never was on cuz of the stupid olympics…so whatever. they left around 12. i think it’s bedtime.

i just saw this commercial…for 10 10 220…with those ex football players or whoever they are… and alf… ALF!!!!!!!! ALF THE CAT EATER ALIEN!!!!!!!!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

oh my god. oh my god. when i saw this i actually verballized “oh my god”…not too loud tho, i was about to scream it then i realized i’d scare danielle….but OH MY GOD!!!!!!

o.m.g.

o.m.g.

OH MY GOD

 

oooooooooommmmmmmmggggggggggggggg as if that pic wasnt enough for me. I get to watch my exact trent fantasy be played out on my computer screen. andallthatcouldhavebeen.com still disc performances. HOLY SHIT!!!! this made my LIFE! you don’t even know. now i just need to get them converted from streaming quicktime to mpeg so i can burn them someplace hahah. oh my god. i’m surprised i didn’t pass out. and yeah like, the becoming and something i can never have were great, amazing, those alone made my life…but the gone,still clip… jesus christ, that is my PURE UNADULTERATED TRENT FANTASY!….well except for jerome dillon, i can take his place…but yeah…trent, piano, candles….*dies*

and this is retarded, but you can tell trent was trained in piano, cuz he plays correctly. if you just taught yourself you wouldn’t play like that. i never played like that, but i knew i was supposed to LOL. just like i don’t type right either, i know i should type differently to avoid carpal tunnel but whatever… i could never really play piano the right way…i dunno, i just couldn’t. she was going to make me play while holding tennis balls in my hands…but she never did, thank god. LOL.

i had another amazing u2 dream last night. i woke myself up from it at 630, and i’m like MUST WRITE DOWN. so i wrote it on 2 postit notes, yeah can barely read my writing LOL.

i must avoid sitting here all day and playing these videos over and over…my god…

current mood: dying, my life has been made, nothing can stop me now lol

 

my day just keeps getting better and better….. SWEETTARTS!!!!!!!!!!!!! valentine heart shaped sweettarts from the wegmans candy section. and that reminds me…easter is coming… you know what that means?! chicks and bunnies sweettarts!!!!! bags and bags of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

it’s such a beautiful day out. i put in APC this morning since the judith video was on forever wild last night. and the combination of nice day and APC creates HUGE flashbacks… lol. can we rewind time a few years to summer 2000? that was like the best summer ever. i want it to be summer 2000 but with all this new nin stuff, and my u2 fandom lol…yeah.

i don’t like that all sweettart greens have been changed to greenapple. those little 3 pack halloween ones still have lime green. but these hearts, it’s green apple. and the chicks and bunnies are gonna be green apple unfortunately. cuz the chicks and bunnies only come in green, purple and yellow…thats why i liked them so much, no icky red ones. but now if the green is green apple, i really only like 1 flavor of the chicks and bunnies (purple, yellow tastes like soap but they’re ok)…BLAH. maybe i should write to them again and complain (if you recall, i complained to them in august)…

i’m not doing work today. i just really don’t feel like it LOL.

 

wtf is the olympic event “Skeleton”!?!….i heard it twice today… so and so is the captain of the skeleton team…and such and such country is a contender in skeleton… WHAT IS SKELETON!?

 

forever wild is the best thing that ever happened to VH1. sebastian bach rocks so hard! i love him. he’s HILARIOUS…and they showed the “judith” video…. which i forgot was directed by David Fincher… I love Fincher i’ve decided. he’s so great. i wanna see his new one, panic room. probably wont. but anyway….so totally love this tv show. gotta remember to watch it regularly. i should send vh1 some feedback so they keep making the show…

 

when are people, in particular famous people, going to realize that taping yourself having sex is just going to get you in trouble?! especially if your having sex with a minor… do you think no one is ever gonna find it?! why provide evidence for your own imprisoment?!?! just try to resist setting up the video camera, k?…. cuz really, who thinks that’s a good idea…it would never occur to me to have sex with my 14 year old neighbor boy… let alone video tape it….but maybe that’s just me
