Is there a good reason that my belly button smells of coffee? It’s not as though i was serving it shirtless today. Ack… the smell of that place makes me so queazy … all of the coffee and sweet and bleach seeps into my fingertips as i clean at the end of the day and when i get home i can still smell it even after scrubbing my hands for minutes at a time. Uck. When i used to work in a footwear store the scent of rubber made me nauseous as well. I never got sick from the scents of being a camp counselor though; even the goose poop gets charming after a while when the sun is shining.

Version 2.0 is over. Again. Garbage apparently decided on a title for their new record, according to the studio diaries shirley keeps at their site. I can’t imagine what it could be… Version2.0 was at once a cop out and a perfect fit as an album title … better than Garbage II and totally true in the face of their revamped sound, but unwilling to single out any one song or emotion as the album’s center. The first album, of course, was garbage; it worked as well as the center of all of the songs as it did as the band’s name. Which is not to say that every album need a musical focal point to be its title, but listeners inevitably associate all of the songs on the recording to the title and visa versa, so the title is just as important as the track listing or the cover art. Aren’t most of your favourite albums fitting in all three of those respects?

Which is not to say i’m not interested in anyone. I mean, what would life be without a crush or two to make it interesting? Whether anything will come from them… well, that’s the question i’ve been asking for years :)

Isn’t it funny how i can resist blogging all day and then start with an hour left? That’s so like me. Anyhow, AMkitchen‘s facelift was all beauty and no content, because honestly all of the breaking songwriting content is on here. If i pass my Studio final i should have tons of new content next semester (crosses fingers). Meanwhile … gosh, i don’t know. Garbage is still on and i know all the words.

Wow… getting to know the blogger behind a blogger totally turns perspective around. Some people i know now have allowed me to appreciate their sites ten times more than i used to. Others have exposed themselves as the juvenile idiots that i initially pegged them to be. I suppose it’s the same with rock stars… heavenforbid we should all know the motivation behind our favourite song, we might never listen to it again. That should teach you not to peek behind the curtain…
