i will leave you all with a really great joke.

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller.

He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack.
'Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday.'
Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name.
The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager.
Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral.
The frog says, 'Sure. I have this,' and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.
Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into a back office.
She finds the manager and says, 'There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000, and he wants to use this as collateral.'
She holds up the tiny pink elephant. 'I mean, what in the world is this?'
The bank manager looks back at her and says...
'It's a knickknack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan, His old man's a Rolling Stone.'

=D

forever in blue jeans <3

vote jason castro.

the end.

As I Walked Out One Evening

W.H. Auden

As I walked out one evening,
Walking down Bristol Street,
The crowds upon the pavement
Were fields of harvest wheat.

And down by the brimming river
I heard a lover sing
Under an arch of the railway:
"Love has no ending.

"I'll love you, dear, I'll love you
Till China and Afica meet,
And the river jumps over the mountain
And the salmon sing in the street.

"I'll love you till the ocean
Is folded and hung up to dry
And the seven stars go squawking
Like geese about the sky.

"The years shall run like rabbits,
For in my arms I hold
The Flower of the Ages,
And the first love of the world."

But all the clocks in the city
Began to whirr and chime:
"O let not Time deceive you
You cannot conquer Time.

"In the burrows of the Nightmare
Where Justice naked is,
Time watches from the shadow
And coughs when you would kiss.

"In headaches and in worry
Vaguely life leaks away,
And time will have his fancy
To-morrow or to-day.

"Into many a green valley
Drifts the appalling snow
Time breaks the threaded dances
And the diver's brilliant bow.

"O plunge your hands in water
Plunge them up to the wrist;
Stare, stare in the basin
And wonder what you've missed."

"The glacier knocks in the cupboard,
The desert sighs in the bed,
And the crack in the tea-cup opens
A lane to the land of the dead.

"Where the beggars raffle the banknotes
And the Giant is enchanting to Jack,
And the Lily-white Boy is a Roarer
And Jill goes down on her back."

"O look, look in the mirror,
O look in your distress;
Life remains a blessing
Although you cannot bless."

"O stand, stand at the window
As the tears scald and start;
You shall love your crooked neighbor
With your crooked heart."

It was late, late in the evening
The lovers they were gone;
The clocks had ceased their chiming,
And the deep river ran on.

this ain't where it's at, my friends will second that

&& i've gotta admit sometimes it's pretty sad, but it's like we're our own brat pack. we're always kickin' back.

mhm. the rocket summer.
love, love, love.

so, i went to a dance tonight.
i wouldn't actually say i danced, though i did attempt it.

in case you decide to go see a good film sometime soon, i recommend Juno.
it's just lovely.

current favorite song: brat pack - the rocket summer
l.i.s.t.e.n.

if you're reading this, i would like you to do me a favor.
actually, you would be doing yourself a huge favor as well.
it works out great for the both of us.

GO. SEE. JUNO.

i'm obsessed.
[what's new?]

happy new year, my dear

welcome 2008.
cheers.

do you feel?

i enjoy sleep.
which is why it's strange that i'm still up at 1:26 in the a.m.

twilight needs a soundtrack.
you need to read twilight.
it would make you happy.

there's a good possibility that this is my favorite song right now.

-A Song Is Not A Business Plan-
Hey stop, do you hear an echo?
I do but does anyone know?
The same old thing we hear an hour ago,
Different band, the same radio.
We broke down on the side of the road,
East coast we had to cancel the shows.
I'm trying as hard as I can.
But I'd rather write a song than a business plan.
Because this is me saying words I actually mean.
I won't compromise this thing just to make it.
I want to that's a given but,
I can't it imagine the same way as you.
Oh you know I'll never do the things they do just to make it.
Oh, oh whoa.
Saying so, so you got it in you?
Something to say well I don't hear it in any one of your tunes.
The words you heard usually used.
You got a hook, there's no book, got no soul just a look.
And this is me saying words I actually mean.
I won't compromise this thing just to make it.
I want to that's a given but,
I can't it imagine the same way as you.
Oh you know I'll never do the things they do just to make it.
Oh, oh.
Do you even know what you're even saying?
Or you just saying it cause someone else said it.
Do you even know what you're even saying?
Or you just saying it cause someone else said it.
Do you even know what you're even saying?
Or you just saying it cause someone else said it.
Do you even know what you're even saying?
Or you just saying it.
I want to that's a given but,
I can't it imagine the same way as you.
Oh you know I'll never do the things they do just to make it.
I want to that's a given but,
I can't it imagine the same way as you.
Oh you know I'll never do the things they do just to make it.
Oh oh whoa.
