Friday I'm in Love

I have had the flu or some kind of ick bug all week. I have had a lot of time to sit in my bed and be a lazy bum. And to work on the new things that I so adore.

1. Ritz crackers. For days they were all that I could taste. And I love them.

2. I have reaffirmed my love for Patty Griffin. Her voice is so wonderful. My favorite PG songs are as follows...
-You've Got Growing up to Do by Joshua Rouse and Patty Griffin (but the best thing i can give to you, is for me to go, leave you alone, you've got growing up to do.)
-When It Don't Come Easy by PG (if you break down, i'll drive out and find you. if you forget my love, i'll try to remind you. stay by you when it don't come easy.)
-Rain by PG (sometimes the hurt is so deep you think that you're gonna drown. sometimes all i can do is weep with all this rain falling down.)
-Time Will Do the Talking by PG (there are those who like to look and those who ain't afraid to touch.)
-Long Ride Home by PG (i've had some time to think about it and watch the sun sink like a stone. i've had some time to think about you on the long ride home.)

3. Looklet.com -Paperdolls for grownups. And it's all couture. So, I can play dressup on a super skinny model with really expensive clothes that I can never afford. Wait, why do I like this website? Because it's fun.

4. The Wackness was a really good movie. Josh Peck portrayed an emotionally retarded drug dealer and it really made me forget that he was ever on Drake and Josh. Ben Kingsley is great as well as a wacked out psychiatrist. And no words for Oliva Thirlby. She's fantastic, loved her since Juno.

5. Wipeout - Curt and I both agree that this show is hilarious. If you are having a bad day or you just need something to make you laugh, this show is it! Watching people of all shapes and sizes and all degrees of weirdness busting their butts into giant pits of mud or foam - PRICELESS!!!! There was a psychologist on there that said he made up a language to better communicate with his patients. Because English isn't effective enough. This guy spent the rest of the show yelling out in jibberish. So funny!!

6. I am still really digging on Florence & The Machine. If you haven't checked her out, you are missing out!!

7. I made up a word, or at least I think I did. BUDGETISTA. That is my new name for the girl who still wants to be fashionable and fun but is B.R.O.K.E.
