On the Literal Flashing of My Life Before My Eyes
Our front yard was struck by lightning yesterday. There is a large hole in the ground in front of our basketball hoop.
It also entered my home. Scorch marks by the light switch in the kitchen, a small piece of the wall blown out above the stove, half a brick blown out on the side of the house, upstairs TV totally janked, along with the computer monitor, cable modem, and router.
My main concern?...

I was at a Family Force 5 concert today, and they were doing an acoustic set. The lead singer threw a huge stuffed animal penguin into the audience and asked them to tear it to pieces. They, of course, obliged, and small bits of stuffing flew into the air and were carried over our heads by the wind.
It made my day. Mostly because my old high school choir teacher looks and waddles about much like...

About the word “douchebaggery.”
Douchebaggery. Say it. Douchebaggery. It feels so…insulting. I’ve had enough of your douchebaggery! These levels of douchebaggery are like none I’ve ever seen! This douchebaggery astounds me! Your douchebaggery must end!!
I know a lot of people with “douchebaggery” implicitly written across their foreheads.

I have successfully purchased tickets for the midnight premiere of The Last Airbender. Go on, poke fun. I still say it’s going to be a bomb-ass time.
I don’t say this often because it sounds ultra-lame, but…fuck, yeah!

I heard the song “Bad Romance” at 7AM this morning. I was singing it the rest of the day, despite the fact that I was at a music festival surrounded by non-stop music that wasn’t “Bad Romance.”
She has successfully reached the innermost corners of my mind.
Damn you, Gaga. Damn you.

I learned three things today: 1. Pineapple Express is one of the most hilarious films ever created. “You are high as a fucking kite!” 2. NEVER eat the cheese-flavored beans in Bertie Bott’s Every Flavor Beans. You will vomit, no matter how manly you think you are. 3. IHOP proves that breakfast is delicious any time of day, including 2 AM. I went hungry. I left happy.

On Death, But Nothing Particularly Profound
I’ve been thinking more and more that I do not want my body to be buried. The idea of my body being made up by some creep who digs that kind of thing, that I will be placed in a box lined with comfy cushions, then lowered into a six-foot deep pit surrounded by dirt and those dead before me, and soon enough the dirt will seep through the cracks with the insects and worms and attack my already...

For the first time, my fingers subconsciously typed “tumblr.com” rather than “facebook.com” when I opened the Internet.
I’m happy about this, I have to admit.

On TOMS Shoes, and Their Sudden Omnipresence In My...
A few days ago I posted a wonderful picture of a pair of TOMS Shoes that I desired. I went to orientation for my college. TOMS Shoes were everywhere, taunting me. I actually felt like a minority. At least half of my fellow classmates were sporting the wonderful footwear. They’re stylish and for a great cause. Who could need a better reason than that to purchase a pair? I have the money!...

I love this film. “Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant,...

On the Scholarship Audition
I don’t know where I’m going with this. Many thoughts ran through my mind at a scholarship audition today.
The bitches who don’t know they’re bitches. The boys who are complete flamers and proud of it. Flame on! The boys who act shy but actually think they’re the shit. The girls who wear Bump-Its. Oh God, I wanted to rip it off her pretty, little head. Get that...

I always set my alarm for noon.
It’s summer, so that seems reasonable.
Somehow it always turns off, and I end up waking up at an unreasonable time.
3:30 PM. It’s getting out of hand.
