Things about This is Spinal Tap:
-after the movie, some speaker manufacturers actually started putting 11 on their speaker knobs.
-I heart Christopher Guest and all his movies
-Harry Shearer plays one of the members of Spinal tap. He also does Simpsons voices, so try and watch this without hearing Mr. Burns, Rev. Lovejoy, Skinner, Ned Flanders etc.
-The movie FUBAR is also awesome.
I've probably mentioned it before, but I'm just so pleased at the proliferation of the word zeitgeist in mainstream English vocabulary. It seems silly that there was never an appropriate English equivalent, but then again the German word is only a little over 200 years old. I think Google is responsible for its relatively newfound popularity and once again, that scares me. Also, spell check just corrected me by capitalizing Google... like God...!
Related: I predict that words expressing connections and complex structures are going become increasingly important and developed.
this is cbt, signing off.
So apparently while I was gone, it turned to full on spring in Toronto! right on. these days when I leave it is kensington I miss the most. I have about one more day of not being busy so I better make the most of it. puttering time!
Vic is going lovely. Enjoying spending time with heather and co. Fun rooftop sexy superhero photoshoot with katja on monday- oh hi hello.
So my yesterday my mom and I went to one of the million big box stores in what is becoming a cultural wasteland in the outskirts of Victoria. Cheap clothes though. My mom has sensitive skin and smelling-abilities; she complained about the clothes smelling like they were off-gassing and on the way home she actually developed a rash on her arms! gross!
oh GTA4 is awesome, and I want to own it. But that would also require owning a tv and a playstation. Friends who own it, be prepared to see more of me.
I am sick of course, but after exams, taken care of by the mother seems like the perfect time -if there was one- to be sick.
oh and I learned that heather's phone number makes the melody of 'Old McDonald had a farm'. neat.
should be a week of fun out on the west coast!
hopefully the sun will decide to join at some point.
ugh nyahnsn[stryi.
last exam (not ever, sadly) at 9 this morning, running on 3 hours sleep and not a lot the nights before. Finished 15 minutes early, walked out and sat in the sun across the street and listened to this (give it a chance).
Smoked a much deserved joint, waited for my friend to finish and listened to this. sun soaked and high by 11:11am. lovely.
We ended up stuffing ourselves with beer and food at sneeky dees. Yum. actually don't bother with the guac and cheese omelette. Suddenly it was 4pm and we were sorta drunk, talking too loudly and crudely. I heard about this thing going on around the corner from my place- a garage sale held by the cobrasnake?!? (sort of epicentre and early player in the sceney hipster world). I was just drunk enough to suggest we go watch the people and make fools of ourselves... but when we got to the place we saw the most obnoxious ridiculous hipster uniforms standing around outside, being seen and it was all too much... had a good long belly laugh and kept on walking. we both needed to pee for the millionth time anyway.
Came home fell asleep and now I feel like shitey shite mcshiterson
oh. god. turns out it is hosted/associated/circle jerked by the band I am supposed to see tonight. I don't think this is going to happen. I think I might just watch a few episodes of The Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! and fall asleep in a pile of my own superiority.
I think I need to work on limiting the amount of parentheses I use.
