1) I don't want to fight. This sounds like a good thing. In my experience, it's not. Never getting upset makes me seem like an evil robot, and refusing to discuss a disagreement with people who are upset makes me seem condescending. I might be both, I guess.
2) I have terrible taste in music. Most of my music library is chosen on the basis of either clever lyrics or novelty. I have a lot of off-genre covers of well known pop music and the complete recordings of a handful of bands whose lead singers enunciate clearly. If I make you a mix CD, it will probably have Cake on it. And Marcy Playground, if I can justify it to myself at all.
3) I don't want to go to shows. This is probably a corollary to #2. I don't even go to see my friends' bands. I certainly don't want to see The Beardos opening for Our Band Name Is a Full Sentence. Anyway, it's hot, and loud, and crowded and expensive, and I'd almost always rather drink beer in a park and listen to the '70s power-pop playlist on my iPod.
4) I will remember everything you say and do when you've been drinking. I've got a heroic tolerance. The upside of this is that you'll have a ride home, and I'll try not to let you lose your camera.
5) My actions are beyond reproach, but my motives are suspect. I'm not saying I'm building up trust, working toward some diabolical goal, just that I've taken too many liberal arts courses to be sure why I'm being nice to anyone, least of all the women I date.
Also, sometimes I wear suits to the beach.

dan, i read the 5 most recent entries and then decided to start from the beginning, and this is how far i got before i had to write and tell you how fantastic it is.
ReplyDeletea lot fantastic.
all of the fantastic.
you're a spectacular writer. i spent my entire day weirdly depressed (stupid brain-chemicals being all wonky), and this is SERIOUSLY the first thing that's cheered me up.
