Hog

I really want to learn how to ride a motorcycle, but for no other reason than to have some pretty spectacular parking options on campus. I swear UT students who ride motorcycles have it made.

But in order to obtain such parking options, I would have to:

  1. Buy a motorcycle
  2. Learn to ride said motorcycle
  3. Get a motorcycle license
  4. Buy motorcycle parking pass

I guess I’ll just stick to my little car. I did get a pretty great parking spot yesterday, but that only happens once in a blue moon. My roommate got the most awesome parking spot ever the first week of school and has since refused to drive her car anywhere.  Maybe I should do that.

ID yourself

Today I was talking on the phone with one Andrew Thomas Cole when he said that I sounded different on the phone.  I’m not quite sure why I sounded different, but he demanded that I identify myself with a random piece of pop-culture or celebrity knowledge.

My response?

“Did you hear about Owen Wilson?”

Andrew’s response?

“Oh, that would soooooo be something you would say.”

Time for a carol

I listened to Christmas music last night.  Do you think there’s some kind of support group out there I could join?  I just want to put up decorations, wear my black peacoat, and not be sweating every time I go to class.  Is that so wrong?

I think my aversion to heat, sunlight, and summer has increased with the recent failure of the air conditioning system in my car.  But that does make a great excuse to get people to drive me everywhere, since none of my friends feel like sweating it out in the passenger seat.  Hey, I’m just excited I have power steering again!  But I do seem to be losing some muscle in my arms…

I've got a Halloweenhead

I was having dinner with my friends Tracey and Alex last night and they were already having a full-blown discussion about their Halloween costumes.  Call me crazy, but it’s not even September yet.  I usually don’t think about my Halloween costume until October 30th.

Halloween stopped being a fun holiday for me the minute I got to high school.  Without fail there would always be something going on with marching band that day and I just wouldn’t have the energy afterwards to partake in any of the festivities.

But bring on Labor Day!  I’m ready to run.

Overkill

So I’m all moved into this dorm-pseudo-apartment-thing with two roommates. We definitely all have subscriptions to NetFlix. I think I’m going to cancel my subscription and mooch. I mean, three separate subscriptions for one apartment is a tad frivolous, yes?

I ordered a second battery for my camera the other day and it should arrive by tomorrow. I was all excited until I realized that I left the chord that hooks the camera up to the computer at home. I wouldn’t have sprung for the one-day delivery had I known that.

This semester at college is not looking too good. Why oh why did I have to minor in business? I’m retarded.

Oh, me!

I am really into music right now. Usually I just listen to whatever is on my iPod when I work out and that is the end of it. I don’t even change the songs on it all that much, which I should do more often since I can only fit 500 or so on there.

I have to credit Ryan Adams with rekindling my music fever. Easy Tiger is a great album and I listen to it constantly. And anyone who includes a Murphy bed in their lyrics deserves some kind of special honor.

What a coincidence it is that I start loving music again just as new Britney Spears music starts to leak on the internet. I’ll let you decide how much sarcasm I meant to include there.
