myriad of the mundane

10.27.2005

you know what the single best thing about blogger is? to post you have to create. it doesn't say compose, it doesn't say write and it doesn't say post; it says create. a great mentality to be in when you come into something like this.
if you said everything in and ordinary way no one would be here to read. we are all trying to be cooler, funnier and sassier than usual just to be outside of ourselves for a while.
like how you always think of that perfect line as soon as the person has walked off.
ever have that happen? i hate it when it does. drives me crazy. and it happens to me a lot.
"your mom tries to...uh...oh man give me a sec" just doesn't work.
that is all.

  • yeah, my best lines always come ten minutes too late.

    you're right that you don't want to write things in an ordinary way, but for me it's not about even being outside myself and more about trying to make sure my blog isn't boring. because that's my biggest fear... that my mates might read it and think, "well, i'll never get those five minutes back".

    some of the best blogs i've seen are about the most mundane things but what makes them brilliant is the slant they take and the flair with which their written.

    to be honest, i was a bit intimidated when i saw them (but then i went random blogging and saw the acres of crap out there and felt much better!)

  • no joke. damn. there are blogs on where to rent in your city. not joking, blogs devoted to this crap. they're like free ad pages you sometimes hit when you just go to random blogs.
    speaking of which, i did a search for sex one night and came up with the coolest music blog ever. it was truly superior. called sex kittens compare scratches or something like that. i bought one of the artists featured there.
    but i do like that you can take some time and make yourself more interesting than you really are. it helps a lot.

  • oh baby, go check them out.
    i've been listening to nothing else for the last two weeks.

    and i can't come up with anything but the right answer most of the time. not being arrogant. i don't spell well, i don't have any skill at dancing but i can pick out the right answer out of four 9 times out of 10.

  • do you know built to spill? because if you do imagine what would happen if kurt cobain from nirvana was the front man. they're really guitar driven, have that lo-fi production and a bitter view of the world.
    and disturbed? no offense but here they get more airtime than most pop bands.

  • check out refused. they've easily got one of the best screamers out there for a front man. the man is insane. they're amazing, though. they're loud sometimes but then they'll also go into 5= minute songs complete with accordion and string sections. it's truly superior music. them and the blood brothers as far as bands that scream. both are quirky and awesome.
