The Clumsy Astronaut
Using Google Reader
The best thing about google reader is that I can look at silly blogs at school yet people thing I’m researching important stuff. The thick glasses help.
david and mary
Johnny’s always running around, trying to find certainty.
He needs all the world to confirm, that he aint lonely
Mary counts walls, knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right, if it would buy, truth from him.
Mary says he changes his mind, more than a woman.
But she made her bed, even when the chance was slim.
Johnny says he’s willing to learn, when he decides, he’s a fool.
Johnny say’s he’ll live any where, when he earns time to.
Mary combs her hair, says she should be use to it.
Mary always edges her bets, she never knows, what to think.
She says that he still acts, like he’s being discovered.
Scared that he’ll get caught, without a second thought
Johnny feels he’s wasting his breath, trying to talk, sense to her
Mary says he’s lacking a real, sense of proportion
So she combs her hair, knows he tires easily
Johnny’s always running around, trying to find certainty.
He needs all the world to confirm, that he aint lonely
Mary counts walls, says she should be use to it.
The Mexican Ian Curtis
Hoy en el trabajo, ahogado entre papeleo dije, pinche trabajo repetitivo y aburrido. Luego me acorde que Ian Curtis tenia un trabajo cerote de oficina que lo llevo a empezar Joy Division.
Quite el disco de Michael Bolton de la grabadora y puse el Unknown Pleasures. Creo que es la unica vez que alguin a escuchado Unknown Pleasures para levantar su moral en el trabajo.
C'est la seule chanson que je te consacre
“Points Underneath”
What started as a crush became an obsession
It was the classic path
You’ve taken the weekend home, you’re believing
That things are somehow getting done
But you’re wrong
Don’t ever leave me alone, not this evening
I am cold and shivering without you near
I have begged and I have borrowed
From my friends, who once admired
Now they all have lost respect for me
Feed me the words to explain this urge
With pressure and squeeze, from points underneath
The streams in your skin are ready
And I can, so I will, just as long as you instill
This fear in my heart
I just hope that you aren’t alone
“Did I do something wrong?” her eyes start to question
Yes, you did something wrong.
You just failed to mention
Hopefully you will see that the plans and the dreams
That we shared in this haze
They all wilt away
You were wrong.
I just hope that you aren’t alone.
[Ed. A guy told me a few days ago, that you and me would end up with other people. More and more, that seems plausible. I’m just glad you are happy…I just hope that you aren’t alone.]
A day at the office...
- Co-worker: Oh, I like your boots...
- Me: Oh thank you, I bought them during my beatles fase
- Co-worker2: Yeah, they go well with the shirt you're wearing
- Me: Oh yeah, I got it during my alt-country fase
- Co-worker: (between polite laughter) so what fase are you in now?
- Me: In my "time to grow up, look for a real carreer instead of wishing to be a rockstar" fase
- It's nice when all your dreams are dead.
Baggage Claim or Alive and well (accordingly)
- Me: Hi
- Clerk: Hello sir, what can I do for you today?
- Me: Well, I have this baggage, 7 years old actually
- Clerk: Yes...
- Me: Well basically, I would like to leave it with you
- Clerk: May I ask why sir?
- Me: Well, actually, I was very content with carrying this baggage. For another 7 years even, but this past year that you weren't in service made me reflect on how I needed to dump this baggage on you
- Clerk: Well sir... here is your reciept.
- Me: Receipt?
- Clerk: Yes, its just proof that your baggage was received, and its valid for akward glances across tables and mild hostility...
- Me: Can I get gift card, or somethin?
- Clerk: Gift card?
- Me: Yeah, you know one of those gift cards "this is childish and lets just laugh about how ridiculous this all is"
- Clerk: Certainly, but those take time to process... May I ask, where you unhappy with the service provided?
- Me: Oh no, not at all...actually I applied to be an exclusive, permanent member.
- Clerk: Ahh yes, well that will take from 10 to 15 years, to give you a concrete answer.
- Me: I see... so for all this baggage, I just get the reciept?
- Clerk: For the time being sir...
- Me: OK, well thank you...
