senioritis has come again?

i haven't updated in forever. but i have pledged to update at least every time my father does. which is perhaps lame and not the best plan i have ever come up with - but i'm writing, so at least its working at the moment.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETER. um, again. it was peter's bday last night, so i went to go be social with him at his petite fete. it was fun, i had a good time - everyone liked the cake i made, and i got to play some ddr and piano, and had a good chat with peter waiting for the bus. (there was absolutely NO ONE else on that bus. that doublebus bus... all empty for me... was a bit strange.)

going to classes has been difficult. i like 2/3 of my classes, i'm just having a hard time working up the _____________ to go to them. even though i don't really have anything better to do, a big part of me is just kind of like "classes? ...... meh, maybe not." So i'm trying to get over that.


And speaking of film classes - i may have to rethink my position on my favorite director. I like bertolucci a LOT, but he may be getting bumped down the list by Mind-Fuck-Polanski. I've liked all of his films so far, even the ones that dont make my brains dribble out of my ears- but those ones are the best. I havent had a movie affect/effect me in a long while, and then we watched REPULSION. and today i got to see The Tenant (or Le Locataire if you're in france). both made me have dribbly brains.

anyway. thats kind of what has been going on lately. everyone in the house seems to be listening to Paul Simon's Graceland lately - and i've finally downloaded a copy of it to my computer and am listening to it currently. i'm not sure how i escaped the paul simon (and garfunkel) revolution - apparently it never happened in our house. we jump straight from the allman brothers and the doors to peter gabriel and alison krauss...

and in a final and very sad note, jupiter is still missing. i can only hope that he was taken in by someone who is very nice to him. i miss him, where ever he is.

Actually, there is at least one PS vinyl LP in the house... but essentially, you're right. We never got into him/AG.
