the kicking horse of scope creep

Remember when we tried to replicate that noise? Remember how miserably we failed?

Smog – A Hit

(Is this the way the words go? I can’t remember.)

If you’re still around I want you to know that I sort of miss you. I miss your fastidious nature. I miss the incredible regularity with which you washed your hands.

I woke up with a Rod Stewart song running through my head.

While this alone would have made for a terrible morning, what really frightened me was that this was not a Rod Stewart song I could place in memory. The song instead seemed to exist in an alternate past or possible future constructed completely by my subconscious mind.

Now, if my brain is so warped that it is working on unknown Rod Stewart compositions while I sleep, what other horrific thoughts must lie in wait?

We attempted to reduce the distance between one another thinking it might help lessen the repulsion we felt for ourselves.

In the end we both felt kind of sad.

The extra ‘v’ is for xtra-vous.

Update: Mexico still in North America.

Maybe this is the creeping dread I’ve heard so much about. Or maybe it’s just the regular kind.

I know that this is boring all the time. I only had three ideas and I am waiting for the right time to reuse them.

The new Dwayne Sodahberk album is really nice.

So what is it like to be caught in a perpetual cloud of awesome anyway?

I’m forgetting now how all of the words fit together.

Syntax schmyntax.

I want to put the new Boyracer comp on my iPod but it appears that no one has submitted the titles of the songs to one of those internet thingies that automatically tags your mp3s and it has 75 tracks and some of the song titles are really long so I don’t want to type that shit out.

I don’t even want to copy and paste.

Maybe I’ll just wait a few days and try again.

Also, I know I’m slow on the uptake with this and that songs have probably already appeared on blogs maintained by individuals who try much harder than I do, but I’m so impossibly crushed out by this album that I am going to post something anyway.

Tender Forever – Tender Forever

(Right click and save. Buy “Punker Than You Since ’92″ by Boyracer from Darla. Buy “Tender Forever” by Tender Forever from K.)
