“Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat

– Bruce Springsteen
Springsteen
is playing in my old hometown.
For a good ticket it’s 91 bucks plus service charges.
I can sit behind the stage for 41 bucks.
To me, that’s still worth it.
Sadly, I don’t even have 41 bucks and I’d feel like a shit spending part of my income tax on it. I always feel bad spending money on myself.
“All my friends were vampires
I didn’t know they were vampires

– Daniel Johnston
See?
That’s exactly what I’m talking about.
I hate
that the posts I want people to like are rarely ever the ones that people pay attention to.

An open letter to writers
Dear Writers,
Please don’t write about writing or being a writer. If your best work is about writing, then you really need to start living and looking at the world outside of yourself. If you want to be a successful writer, you’re probably going to want people who are not writers to read your work, and I assure you, no one wants to read what you wrote about writing something....
Song of the Day
“You Can Call Me...
“Who will be my role model, now that my role model is gone?”
– Paul Simon
I lost a follower in the night
I wonder if it was due to the fear that I might participate in SNPD.
I hate when
my pizza order is late. It means I may have to call and complain, or even worse, my credit card was denied because this card is dumb and will get denied even when I have money available on it.
It’s ten minutes past the estimated delivery time.
Blah.

so, this is retarded, right?
jaimeleighfairbrother:
Hypothetically speaking, I hate my job. And hypothetically speaking if I were offered a different position that paid better, involved less hours with a longer lunch break it would make total sense to jump on it, right?
It would also probably mean not sitting on Tumblr all day. Fuck.
Hypothetically speaking, I don’t think I can make this call. I don’t want to give up...

My nephew’s name is Michael and he’s a degenerate. Of course, his name is actually misspelled Micheal, because my sister is a dumbass. Maybe that’s why he’s a delinquent.
Today's LastFM Threesome
Dire Straits—“Romeo and Juliet”
Supertramp—“The Logical Song”
Joe Cocker—“When the Night Comes”
Do you hear that? That’s the sound of my ears masturbating.
Remember when I said I loved LastFM yesterday?

electricpencils:
I still love it today.
This is like my 3rd longest relationship.
You should add that great singer-songwriter Jax Braithwaite to your library ;)
You should also add sinkshipsjax as a friend. Btw those two people are in no way related except for the name and identity and shit.
Okay, I tried to find that singer, but I got “No content available”.

Valentine's Day is a Sham
I don’t care for holidays in general, but Greeting Card Holidays are even worse, and the worst of the worse is Valentine’s Day.
I mean, really, don’t we have enough obligatory gift-giving occasions?
Do we hit a lull in greeting card and candy sales in Feburary, so we thought, “Hey, let’s make up a holiday. It has to be something that people will get sucked into. Oh,...

I’m good for it to. If you want a valentine, send me your mailing address. If you want to be stalked, send me your home address.
isn’t that the same thing? =D
No, my mailing address is currently my mother’s home in Oklahoma.
My home address changes depending on which hotel I’m living at.
That answer makes me sound like a douchebag. Sorry....

I need to write
but I’ve been waiting on housekeeping to come. It always disrupts my groove, plus I like to write with headphones on and I can’t hear them knock.
Anyway, she’s in here now. It’s a different one. We had the same one for a week or so, but they seem to change now. It makes me wonder if the first one got fired or something. It wouldn’t surprise me.

Do they spend time thinking about the ramifications of their choices in regard to sex? Do they think about their number of partners and what that number might mean? I’m genuinely curious.
Sure. Why wouldn’t they?
I wouldn’t have guessed they do. In fact, originally I was going to post “lucky for men that they don’t spend time...

and there are elderly people present, they usually look at me with one of the following expressions:
“Damn hippy”

Oddly enough, I’m not most of those things.
You’re not a hippy, or ”on that pot”?
I am neither of those things.

Does having Keifer Sutherland as the voiceover in the commercial convince “24” fans to bank at Bank of America? I mean really, is it that enticing? Is someone sitting at home going, “Honey, Jack Bauer uses Bank of America. Maybe we should switch.”
Someone should do a study on this.

both for your quick responses.
You’re welcome. I had a wiseass comment about Memes (the internet meaning), but have learned to keep such things to myself.
I bet you can think one up though, something along the lines of ”More trendy hipster crap, so we can think we’re important and cutting edge”
haha Here’s a tip…never hold back the smartass comments.

I thought you were gonna say “nine peoples’ favourite thing than a hundred people’s ninth favourite thing” which is also befitting.
I started following you because I read a reblog with you complaining about people following you ;)
Classy!
