sitting around, procrastinating homework and buying AQUA songs obsessively off of the itunes music store, in some sort of desperate attempt to relive 1997. does the song "cartoon heroes" make any friggin' sense? "what we do is what you wish to do" "welcome to the toon town party" "a bunch of dust that's chasing us, frame by frame, to the extreme, one by one we're making it fun"? what the shit?? i don't know. i still love this band even though my brother says we'll be playing it at his friend's gay wedding someday.

as the years go by, i am frightened by how much my attention span has dimished, how i become more and more easily amused, and the boughts of noun diarrhea spewing from my mouth*. i don't know whether it was just because i was tired or what, but yesterday i laughed so hard that i cried on three separate occasions, the most intense case of which occured after watching people make bird calls on letterman. however, at school today i noticed that i was having fits of laughter if someone yelled out a person's name in a very slighty different than normal way. maybe i'm just enjoying life a little more than the other people around me. i have observed that many of the other freshmen at my school are quiet, and rarely ever smile. in fact, i'm watching this one particular girl very closely, waiting for her to smile because i'm absolutely convinced she hasn't before in her entire life. this is all a very dramatic difference from the upperclassmen, who are extremely relaxed in their environment. i want to make friends with them.

*i wrote steve a letter and put it in his school mailbox yesterday. the entire bottom half of the letter was a continuous stream of obscure words, one of which i believe went something like "harpy carp lark ding-dongs".
