as soon as i got to work today i had to download this pinehurst kids’ song “the onceler”. i got it last night at home and listened to it a dozen times at least (and watched the video online). it’s really good, so now i have to download it at work so i can listen to it here too. but those pinehurst kids aren’t fooling me — not everyone may know that the title of the song is taken from a dr. seuss book that’s metaphorically about deforestation. but i do. that’s right, i’m onto you, you wily indie rockers. don’t think you can slide anything by me.

in other news, my friend josh (the pal of pals that just HAD to go study in australia for this semester), decided to start a weblog of his own, inspired by yours truly. i keep doing this to people, unintentionally. i start doing some nerdy dumb thing, and through me they start doing it too because i seem to like it so much. earlier this summer i subliminally convinced josh to read the sandman series of “graphic novels” (comic books). they’re my favorite books out of anything, but it’s pretty geeky all the same. my girlfriend started playing this insanely nerdy majestic game once she caught me playing it. now weblogs (which are really cool, for sure, but still you have to admit they’re pretty geeky too) are spreading. but it could be worse. at least i haven’t given anyone my syphilis yet.

wait, i don’t have syphilis. but josh does have a weblog which you can read right here. or on the link of all links on the side bar. i will at least spell the words right even if he can’t.

thursday means weekend after today! 7 hours until weekend! 8 until vagrant tour part I, featuring ultimate fakebook and reggie! rock up, rock down, rock all around.
