i want to be a house pet when i grow up.

This evening I found myself sitting in my car in a parking lot, with the engine off listening to a film score on my iPod, eating a Big Mac and a McFlurry as it lightly rained and a deep chill settled in the car. All alone.  My circumstances proceeded to hit me. And I can't decide if it was a sad circumstance that I should be a wee embarrassed about or if it's a quirky representation of how college students manage to find some solitude and a bit of relaxation. Honestly, I was having my dinner. At 10:45 PM. Now that's a bit of a shameful confession.


I need prayer this week to finish strong! I just want to curl up on my bed and have a dreamless sleep for three days straight  -maybe wake up to be fed or have my head scratched or something, but otherwise pretty much left undisturbed. I sound like I have aspirations to become a house pet.


I hope you're well  :)

things i like

I listened to david sedaris answer five random questions, one of which was "if you could kick any politician in the shins, who would it be?" i could listen to him all day. sometimes i think we'd get along well. who knows though? i also just listened to jonathan safran foer read a short story. two of my favorite authors back to back. nice.


now listening to the national and forcing myself to write this paper over the dangers of the emerging church. i don't really care anymore though.


i want to listen to some joy division or the kills heading to sonic happy hour and then off to log footage with the crew for our documentary over indie pro-wrestling in northwest arkansas. there's so much comradery wrapped up in the story. i like being a part of something that really tells a good story.i think this is something i'm going to be proud of.


in other news: i'm exhausted of school and ready to have this semester behind me. i have three huge projects i need to work on and then i can go home and rest. rest is such a foreign concept. the most i have gotten thus far has been laying in bed for three days with H1N1. yeah.



this is me whacking my sweet friend kristen in the head. she's a real pal.
