...and angst

Oh shit, girls, it’s Wednesday!

So I think the hard thing about blogging (at least for me) is the fact that it’s the summer and I’m off school and I totally forget what day it is until really late at night when I want to curl up in my bed and read while I listen to some radiohead or watch Mad Men… (I’ve decided it’s something I should dive into. My dad loves to buy seasons on TV shows used on amazon and watch an episode every day when he excersizes and he already ons the first two seasons; I’m going to watch the first episode tonight... tell me if you watch it, when I get into a TV show I can watch about a season a week so I should be caught up pretty soon and we can talk… anyways) …so I get to it late at night and I spend a shit load of time typing these out, but I have to try to write pretty quickly... I know blogger’s clock is on west coast time (*cough cough* I think blogger’s clock is on west coast time), but in my time zone it’s about four hours earlier than it says it is on blogger and, girls, let me bring you in on a little secret: I never actually make the midnight deadline.

…On to the theme…

So love. I’m pretty damn sure I’ve never been in it. I don’t have a boyfriend. I’ve never had a boyfriend. The closest I’ve gotten to having a boyfriend was a mutual like-ship… in seventh grade… with robby… we were both in set crew so we hung out a lot… I blame the paint fumes because, while Robby is a really great guy, I mean he’s one of my best friends, he is so not my type.

Believe me; I like some people like that, sometimes really intensely, but I’ve never romantically loved anybody… but that’s just romantic love. There are things I love in the world. I love my family and my friends and my dog. I love books, movies, music… I’m kind of really in love with Radiohead right now, but I also love Ben Folds and the Killers.

Speaking of book love… do you girls ever get book crushes? … as in you totally crush on characters from books? I do. I’ve had some book love for:

• Zach from the Gallagher Girls series
• Hale from Heist Society
• Alex Rider from the Alex Rider series (my cousin Sam is going to be in a movie with the lead from the Mission Stormbreaker movie. I’m psyched. He’s hot {The actor, Alex Pettyfer, not my cousin Sam… he’s my cousin, that’d be gross})
• Spencer from Suite Scarlett
• The list goes on.

Especially the Weasly twins. I’ve always loved the Weasly twins. Fred and George are so my type.

What is my type?- You may not care, but I tend to like… ok every guy I’ve ever liked has been funny. I like funny guys… also I’m kind of a social studies fan girl so if you’re especially good in your history/ government/ econ. Class…bonus points. Also if you’re good in a debate or model UN or that type of thing because I love a good, well informed, but civil-ish, argument.

I should probably sign off now as this could go on a while if I get to talking about boys I like…

What I’m Watching: Mad Men Pilot

What I’m Reading: Consider the Lobster by David Foster Wallace

What I’m  Listening To: Radiohead… right now it’s on Creep

Quote: "People are born with certain faces, like my father was born with a face that people want to hit." 

And "The others were all brought up to be polite. I wasn't." 

And "You will never make friends unless you like everyone genuinely. Oh well, I'm fucked then aren't I?" 

And "You will become a hypocrite, you'll become a liar. You'll try and paper up your own cracks... and that's what being an adult is all about. Then you have babies and... *shrug* that's it. *long pause* Sorry! *laughs*"

And 

"I'm not afraid of computers taking over the world. They're just sitting there. I can hit them with a two by four"

-Radiohead

...and I'm about to make deadline for the first time!

Haley, I'm looking forward to reading you tomorrow
