I just said "Mathematically speaking" which made me also hysterically giggle after that, only because I really needed to use math to get my point across.
I <3 Math. Math is hot.
Alice - got two tickets to math camp this year? :)

Oh Baby!
Here is the most amazing thing ever for expecting parents that like music (thanks for the tip!):
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewArtist?id=216123617
My favorites are the Radiohead and Bjork re-imaginations as lullabies. This is the perfect way for kids to become familiarized with good music, to get their brain thinking/enjoying all things amazing. :)

Shutter Clicked But the Film Did Not Go Round...
One more thing...
http://www.myspace.com/nadasurf
I am pretty ecstatic that in one week from today (next Tues) the new Nada Surf album will be out.
It is called "Lucky" - so naturally I think it is written for me since I am feeling lucky. (bonus points if you get this reference, it REALLY isn't hard) Let's also not recall the few times I used that statement.
Person I don't know : "You work for company x?"
Me: "Why? Are you feeling lucky?"
I really need to stop using that - it NEVER pans out well. ;)
But seriously, this is going to be so amazing. Check out the album at their myspace link above - I like "The Film Did Not Go Round" - but who am I kidding? I love the ENTIRE thing.
Nada Surf makes me feel like I want to buy an old convertible vw bug - put the top down, and drive up the cost, wearing giant indie-oldie sunglasses, tights, and a sweater dress. Stopping all along the way to take the obligatory myspace/facebook/blogger pictures. Preferably with a poloroid camera, because that makes pictures look more vintage. Maybe I would wear a giant hat, in Audrey Hepburn style. Or not. At least that is what the music video would look like if I made it.
Anyway, it is right up there with Jimmy Eat World in the "bands that mean something" chart.

Thanksgiving in January

Today, Tomorrow, Forever
There is this awesome site I just found out about:
meetup.com
I totally want to find some *random* group in OC and check it out. There was a group for Italians who own greyhound dogs, and some other random stuff. Anyway, maybe I should start my own meetup.
But what would it be? Girls who want to discuss Star Wars? People who want to discuss pop culture? A group who battle out at old school Tetris?
In other news, I got my Uggs today! :) I took this pic while upside down, but it turned out pretty cool - even if it is my iphone camera..

It's Still Rock and Roll To Me
Billy Joel's - "It's still rock and roll to me" is my song of the day.
"Everybody's talking bout the new sound, honey, but it's still rock and roll to me"
Rock. And Roll.
Your mission, if you choose to accept, listen to one song today that makes you jump up and down in the middle of your room, singing into a hair brush, and smashing imaginary guitars into imaginary speakers, with the imaginary crowd totally rocking.
I expect comments on the song you choose.
Here are mine for the day:
"I slept with someone in fall out boy and all i got was this stupid song written about me" - Fall Out Boy
"I want you to want me" - Cheap Trick (Oh, Heath Ledger, it is SO sad, I have been unable to watch the 10 things I hate about you, even though I really want to)
"Don't stop me now" - Queen (Enough said, if this one doesn't get your heart beating, you must be heartless)
xoxo - long live good music!

Let's Have Some Words (Of The Day)
yodelumpet: a singing style that combines yodeling and Louis-Armstrong-style trumpet-like sounds.
opisthotonos: the characteristic head-thrown-back, tail-extended posture of fossilized dinosaurs.
I am trying to increase my vocabulary. I think both of these will be highly important words that I use multiple times a day.
This is a good start, isn't it? :)

Hung the Moon
It is an either very well know fact (if you know me well) or a very surprising fact (if you don't know me at all) that Better Than Ezra is my favorite band.
They were the first band that was mine. I discovered them on my own (without the help of my parents), I bought the CD on my own (their first, Deluxe), and I enjoyed them on my own. This band shaped 8th grade.
While everyone else was jamming along to "Good", I listened to the whole CD, and appreciated it like nothing else I had ever heard.
Then I followed them through the years. And the years have been good to BTE.
One of the greatest BTE related events was the first time I saw them live. They lead me to find Something Corporate, probably the second most influential band obsession in my life. SoCo opened for BTE way back when they were a tiny OC high school band.
I haven't seen them too many times (if I am remembering correctly it was once at the Galaxy, once at the Belly Up Tavern, once at HOB Anaheim, and I think that is it...). But they just rock.
Anyway, the point being music has always been a constant in my life. When I was in kindergarten I listened to KROQ. I remember loving the Ramones, and I used to call songs "sequels" if they were by the same band. "Hey Mom, is 20 20 20 4 hours to go a sequel to sheena is a punk rocker?" I also was obsessed with Oingo Boingo, Moriessey, The Smiths, The Cure, Pet Shop Boys, Bon Jovi, and Madonna. I probably had more cassette tapes than any other kid in the neighborhood.
I am so enthusiastic about music - which is probably the understatement of the century.

You Make My Dreams Come True
Here is one of the funniest pics of the new year: The annual Joshua Tree pic, with all four of us on our iPhones. What is the world coming to? 
And now for the real reason for this post:
I briefly worked as an Intern on Hall & Oats episode of VH1's Behind the Music. I loved being exposed to music that is more along the "classic" or "super pop" or whatever you wanted to call it. It was like this giant Pandora's box of brilliantness was spilled on me, and I had to listen as fast as I could to catch up on at least a good 50 years of music that I wasn't alive to hear first hand.
That said, I dug up this song today in my iTunes. I am bound and determined to own as many genres, bands, decades of music possible. I want to be able to listen to anything. Whenever. I love that I live in an age where this is possible. I need to spend at least days in Amoeba catching up on albums that I don't currently own.
Just read these lyrics. They are so moving. Even though this is a song that conventionally I would probably not like, today it sort of made sense. And made me dream about things I want to accomplish in life, which is pretty dramatic to say, but whatever. It did. :)
WHY is music so moving/amazing/brilliant/inspiring/emotional/comforting/explaining/dramatic/intense/satisfying?
Hall & Oats - You Make My Dreams Come True
"What I want, you've got
And it might be hard to handle
But like the flame that burns the candle
The candle feeds the flame
What I've gots full stock of thoughts and dreams that scatter
You pull them all together
And how, I cant explain
But you make my dreams come true
On a night when bad dreams become a screamer
When they're messin' with the dreamer
I can laugh it in the face
Twist and shout my way out
And wrap yourself around me
cause I ain't the way that you found me
I'll never be the same
cause you make my dreams come true
I'm down on the daydream
That sleepwalk should be over by now
I know that you make my dreams come true"

Back on the Chain Gang
I am super into the Pretenders again.
Tonight I am organizing all of my music. This is a weekly, or bi-monthly, occurance in which I burn all of my online purchases, and organize into cd binders. I have lived the sad life in which all my digital music was lost in a computer crash, and I now vowed to never have that happen again - at least not at the magintude of the 30-some odd gigs that I lost back in 2005. Wow, 2005 sounds like AGES ago, but that was like three years now.
Ok, back to Chrissie Hynde...

Kate Nash
New Obsession of Today:
Kate Nash - "Made Of Bricks" Album
Gateway Track - "Foundations"
Key Tracks - "Mouthwash", "Skeleton Song"
This CD makes me want to pack up and move to Brighton, England - going out to sweet indie clubs every night, meeting the creative types that live in Brighton, and journal down by the fire-destroyed pier.
People might disagree, but I put her in a league somewhere between "lily allen" and "feist", but not quite either.
I <3 new music.

A repost from myspace
(An oldie blog, but a goodie. This year commemorates my sixth year of bloging. Yeah, can you believe it? SIX years of pouring out my random, personal, and strange thoughts on the internet. I may start re-posting some from 2002, if you are lucky...)
July 15th, 2007 (original posting on myspace)
Music.
So, for those of you who were A) over at my place on sat night or B) happened to catch the first 15 mins of SNL - be advised, some plagiarism is involved in this blog.
For those of you who did not, these are all 100% my own ideas. :)
In all seriousness, music *is* the closest thing to time travel we ever receive. I like to hearken the memory of those of us who remember hearing "My heart will go on" after seeing the movie Titanic. I know you cried.
Let's explore my top five time travel experiences from this weekend while listening to music:
5. Brian and I were listening to Eliott Smith on the way home from LAX. (Long story) Eliott Smith reminds me of being 19, the worst year of my life thus far. Ptloma, the bowels of Klassen, gross. But I was taken straight back to that time, those feelings.
4. Journey - We were at the fair, and "Don't Stop Believing" came on. We all broke out and started singing in a very "October Road" type fashion. I am pretty sure .01% of you will catch that reference, but October Road had some lovely scenes with friends singing.
3. Stevie Wonder - I believe when I fall in love with you, it will be forever. This also took me back to that horrible sophomore year at ptloma. It was the first time I had ever seen High Fidelity, and I hated it. (aka, I didn't get it) Once I hit the summer of 02 and became extremely well-versed in all things hip (thanks kurti) then this movie became a fave. It also reminds me of a great mix CD I was once given, along with a clove.
2. Jimmy Eat World - Ten. Freshman year. Ptloma. It is truly strange, because I try to block out college at most times, due to the fact that life is so much better now. Ok, block out is strong, but I typically don't harp on it. Some memories are fantastic, but the over all feeling is that life today is the best it has ever been, so why harp on those years? However, this song gave me good feelings about that year when it came on party shuffle today.
1. WEIRDEST musical occurence, probably ever. Today, I was listening to "Thnks fr th mmrs", which is also my ringtone for text messages. I got a text at the exact moment, so both the song and the text played in perfect unison. What are the odds of that? I will probably remember that for awhile.
So, take that HG Wells. My time machine is better than yours.

i want you to want me - cheap trick
I love relaxing. Most of the time, being the extremist extrovert that I am, I get my energy from being around people. Today, I am a bit run down and I am still getting my energy from people - just through the art they create. (ie, music, movies, and books)
Reading:
Mind:
Time Traveler's Wife - Audrey Niffenegger
Soul:
Soul Cravings - Erwin McManus
If I'm Waiting on God, then what am I doing in a Christian Chatroom? - Kerri Pomarolli
Body:
Lucky Magazine - Feb 08
Us Weekly
Glamour - Feb 08
Listening:
Placebo - Meds (Placebo is of of my top bands)
Cheap Trick - I want you to want me
The Velvet Underground - various tracks, pillaged from itunes
Queen - (my fall back to feel amazingly happy)
Castledoor - Follow the Dove EP
Watching:
When Harry Met Sally - I pretty much have the HUGEST crush on Billy Crystal in this movie. Sort of Seth Cohen meets every neurotic Jewish character in movies ever.
Sideways - I do not recommend. This movie BLOWS.
Studio 60 on Sunset Strip - BLISS
Romeo and Juliet - the Baz Lurman version. Oh Leo...
I am slightly sick and the amazing combo of these things make me happy.
My fireplace is on, candles lit across my room, enjoying the amazing comfort of my place that I am so lucky to have, sharing it with all of my favorite bands, who haunt the air - filling in the spaces between.

Song Review - Castledoor - Magnetic Fields
When I was in 5th grade I was in a bell choir. I loved it. Because I could easily read the cards to know when it is my turn to play. Hold that thought.
A few nights ago I discovered Castledoor - a local LA band on Check 1 2, on Indie 103.1.
The song I heard was "Burn the Maps". I went to iTunes and downloaded the full EP almost immediately.
Then I listened to the track "Magnetic Fields". There is a faint bell choir type sound that brought me back to 5th grade bell choir, in a raw rock and roll way. I was then transported to a swirling dreamlike deja vu of mixing sounds reminiscent of Lovedrug, Mew, and dashes of Muse.
"You make me move with magnetic forces and super glue/I got a feeling that I don't deserve this/ but I will preserve it/ I won't desert it/ I'm yours/ I'm yours/ I'm yours"
I know nothing about this band other than this EP is flawless and I am happy to spend some QT thinking while listening.
