Hell, i’m even as big a whore as Torrez (that’s not a shot at him, mind you, i love that whore), so if you buy me stuff i’ll praise you, link you, and [redacted] if you’re ever in town. Especially if you buy me something by Aimee Mann.

Ok, please commence buying me stuff.
OKay, time to take some shots. We’ll start general… why do people think their lives are interesting? I mean, i certainly don’t and i still have this thing, so i suppose i should explain myself. I try to tread the line between blog and journal, and i think i do it rather well. I don’t usually remark about every aspect of my day or the people within it, but i do tell about what i’m feeling and how it relates to what i’m typing. So, that’s why i think i deserve to be here. However, some people have sites that are truly journals, that work fine as journals, but are masquerading as general interest blogs. Sure, throw a link in there, it doesn’t fool me. It’s hard to write a pure journal that will keep people hooked … that sorta implies you have either an interesting live or an alluring style of writing. If you have neither, just go rot away on Geocities… oops, you already are…
Amazon.com has this interesting feature where they attempt to triangulate your musical tastes based on the last few albums you’ve rated. So far i’s about 50% on the money on discs i love, and 25% in discs on my want list. The other 25% is just crap, though. Computers can only figure out so much on their own… although it’s failry sure i should buy Beth Orton’s “Central Reservation” or Aimee Mann’s “Whatever,” which is pretty freaking smart.
I think i’m actually joining our subversive school paper, The Triangle. I’ve been flirting with submission for over a year now, but i finally just sent them my first review (which should be in the Crush section of my site somewhere). We’ll see if they can suck me into their web of cynicism and sleeplessness this semester while i’m not doing theatre…
