I'm From Barcelona Is What The Polyphonic Spree Should Have Been And Maybe Was At First
I'm so serious. I'm much happier with I'm From Barcelona. Light & Day was cool and everything, especially in that vw commercial, but basically every song I hear from I'm from Barcelona makes me very, very happy.
Check this one out, for instance: listen to "britney," which plays automatically
THEY DON'T KNOW A THING ABOUT YOU!
I'M GONNA GET A TATTOO
'CAUSE GIRL I WANT TO LOOK LIKE YOU!
got to:
a) take a shower
b) think about and enjoy the fact that I'm wearing cowboy boots
c) balance this charger-top on this upright blue pen!! CHECK
d) finish the following books:
i) 1919
ii) long day's journey into night
which are from my claybaugh class
e) somehow get my friends to plan new trips to their tristate area vacation-perfect homes, since I missed both that happened this week
f) edit the video I made with josh yesterday, wherein we play two young urban professionals on a date and josh ends up splashing my face with a lot of water because my food was too hot!
g) sell four books online (The Rise of Silas Lapham, The Te of Piglet, Christianity & Culture, and Sister Carrie.)
h) give them to you for free if you want them, since we're friends and all. How could I charge you for a book?
i) though I will say that one of them is a Norton Critical Edition, which is pretty high-class, if you ask anyone in the literary world.
j) pick up my netflix
k) start working at conan again, after a two-week hiatus
l) call mark krotov because it's been too long
m) buy josh ice cream because I lost a bet. Did you know that "I am the very model of a modern major general" is from Pirates of Penzance, not HMS Pinafore? He did.
Grasshopper cookies by the keebler elves taste just like thin mints and look like them, too!

as soon as tom saw that taboo card, he shouted BECKY WOULD KNOW THIS. also, it occurred to me that you may not know that I read your blog. which says that I'm a little creepy. but, I must give taboo credit where it is justly due.
i did know the pirate of penzance reference, which happens to be a huge coincidence because I know it from watching Mad About You-- when Paul's dad sings those lines and right now what am I watching that I haven't watched in years but, MAD ABOUT YOU!! Ahhhh coincidences!
