(How weird does the above paragraph make me?)
HOWEVER...
Kendra gave me Tegan and Sara's new album, The Con, a couple weeks ago, and I put it on this morning while I was going on a cleaning frenzy in my room, and I am in love. I fell in love with Tegan and Sara around this time-ish last year when I was obsessed with season 2 of Grey's Anatomy and forced Kendra to make me CD's of the amazing music that's on the show, which of course lead to a mix with like 8 Tegan and Sara songs, so she wound up just making me a bigass CD of the two albums of theirs that she had. So now the music makes me think of fall...and Terminal Bar.
Anyway. In conclusion, Tegan and Sara are awesome and that is my post for the day. Blah.
OH! Also. I have been TERRIBLE about reading and writing as of late. To be fair, a big chunk of that time was devoted to portfolio-ing. But also to be fair, that's not really an excuse.
I fiiiiiiiiinally finally finally finally finished Heartbreaking Work after like 8 years. That's probably the longest it's ever taken me to finish a book in my entire life. It's a tough book to get through. It's not bad, it's just difficult. And kind of disjointed and insane.
So, new reading list:
Tartuffe by Moliere (it's been like 2 weeks since I've read a play. bad me!)
The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver (It was like 1 dollar at a used bookstore sale and all proceeds went to breast cancer research, so I bought it and it's been sitting on my bookshelf for a year and a half. Plus, Oprah recommended it. Let's be serious)
Finally, I have to say that as amazing as Thanksgiving was (and pictures are coming soon!), it is completely insane how much better I felt after two days of being back into my classes/routine at the gym and eating my insane everything-is-whole-wheat-and-multigrain Trader Joe's food. I walked and did crunches and stuff at Megan and Joe's, but it wasn't the same. I think I'm addicted. This will be a problem once I cease to have all the time in the world and in fact have NO time at all. I have to figure out how to make this whole thing work when I don't have 2 1/2 hours every day to go to the gym and forever to make meals!
In conclusion (for real this time), I love Tegan and Sara. And go buy The Con.
Pretty Canadian lesbian twins!(But...not with each other.)

The Poisonwood Bible is actually one of my favorite books. I own four or five Barbara Kingsolver novels, and I guess technically I own The Poisonwood Bible, although the post office lost the box containing it and about a dozen other books and movies over the summer. Jerks. Great book thought. Definitely get to it!
You're not weird at all about music. I am the same way.
... I realize that that first sentence doesn't prove or even necessarily support the first one. Moving on!
The good thing about being super busy is that you'll probably be doing enough running around to compensate for not going to the gym.
Tegan and Sara are coming here... but there were sold out before I even heard they were coming! :(
"They" were, that is. Excuse my inability to write even the simplest if responses without a typo.
i'm glad you clarified "but not with each other" because i was starting to think really bizarre things. bad things. things that should exist. it made me feel dead inside.
SHOULDN'T EXIST. should NOT!
apparently, i can't comment without a typo either. sdghsdighS:Dgh!
I have smart friends :-D
