raised by wolves

maura @ 11:05 pm

And for tonight, because it is late and I am too afraid to think of the many school-related things I have to do, lest my head explode, here’s a random list of things:

1. [poking her head out of the hole of life where there’s no time for music] The kids are right: Voxtrot, they are indeed good. And I could have even seen them play last night or the night before! Oh, I am SO good at getting a clue one day late.

2. Man, I need to get me to an indiepop blog or start listening to WFMU online again or something. I miss music! And listening to (and singing along with) “Panic in Detroit” and “Cracked Actor” on my 20-year-old Aladdin Sane tape in the car on the way to get Gus from school is not cutting it.

3. Jonathan just said “You could bake a loaf of bread every single fucking day! You can scoff all you want, Maura, but you can’t have any of the bread!” I leave it to you to discover which story in today’s paper inspired those statements. (Oh, okay, I’ll give you the link.)

4. Really, why do I even try to think of things to write in this blog at all? I should just give the running record of what Jonathan says. This minute: “What happened to all of that pie at the Harvest Festival (Gus’ school fundraiser) last weekend?! The cleanup committee CLEANED UP, that’s what!”

5. My hair is really bugging me recently, making me once again wonder about buzzing it. I think I’m still too chicken, but I did decide that when I am old, I will have dreadlocks. Or shave my head. Or both! Dreads seemed like a good plan because I am forever twisting my hair and with dreads you actually NEED to do that. But then I looked on a how-to-make-dreads website and it seems like it’s actually a lot of work, which is kind of the opposite of what I want.

6. Will I look stupid in these sunglasses? Xmas is coming, and I do need some new sunglasses; those $2 ones I got at H&M years ago are getting wobbly on the foldy parts.

7. Aiieee, it’s late! Good night!

Re: the sunglasses, let’s go back to H&M, eh?

They’re that bad? I was thinking something that would work for wintery sporty things, too, as I can still wear the H&M ones for city livin’.
