the d sticks

I was reading my last post and realized that there was no d on the and. And I was writing a post on facebook (which I'm want to do) and realized that there was another and with no d on it. Now I've realized that the d sticks and I have to hit it extra hard to make sure it comes out on the words I need it for. And, like everything else, it made me think of life. The sticking d is like an affliction which is testing my will to use words with that letter. I might simply choose to eliminate that letter from my vocabulary, thus no longer requiring the hitting of that specific key. this plan of action might help me to lengthen my vocabulary by choosing phrases that use other letters in lieu of the things I normally say, such as using the phrases "might", "lengthen", or "in lieu" as well as eliminating conjunctions all together. But then I came to the conclusion that I like the letter d. An(d) that my vocabulary is quite fine the way it is. An(d) not only am I going to take the extra effort to hit the (d) extra har(d) to make sure that it works, I'm going to emphasis just how much I love that letter by placing it in parenthesis every time I (d)eci(d)e to use it. An(d) I'll even use wor(d)s that are completely unnecessary just to show off how much I love the letter (d). Because I (d)o love the letter (d). I (d)o, I (d)o, I (d)efinitely (d)o.

While writing this I also realized that the r sticks sometimes. But the d was sticking first, so I'm going to just try and avoid r words whenever it becomes an issue. I don't need two letters getting special attention. Plus, giving attention to the r would take attention away from the d. See, I even forgot to put parenthesis on the d's in this paragraph. Stupid r.

Oh, an I .... AND I. I hate you too now, d. And I forgot to draw the connection between the affliction that the d sticking causes and afflictions in life. So let's just say that not using the d is like not eating cheese when you like cheese but have decided that not eating cheese will solve all of your weight issues. And they're both like the Rolling Stones song "You Can't Always Get What You Want" only a lot less entertaining.

when i get married

Jason Bauman will be my best man. Thanks for upating my site to redirect people here! I'd kiss you if you weren't so far away an if it didn't make us both feel a little uncomfortable.

Now that people might actually come here, I'm going to upate with something.

Saw Sufjan Stevens at Bowery Ballroom. It was cool.

all day i dream about you

1. white lights
2. cold wind blows
3. my own david to kiss
4. keep me away from the mirror
5. needles and pins
6. cooperstown, nd
7. hecksher field #3
8. idaho #1.
9. will you lie with me in my deathbed
10. wake up

songs that i like that for some reason i have not decided to do for this thing:
alexander hamilton
the a stands for again (which really fits with all the other songs. but it's like all the other songs are good end of album songs and this is definitely an end of album song. so i can't have like 5 end of album songs on an album)
i am a doctor
DNR
fictional song
deep in my heart

these will probably make a good amnesiac to my kid a someday.

I should probably follow up with Blake about the stuff we've recorded.

hello all you carl creighton fans out there

Blake and I recorded a bunch of songs on his tape deck. we recorded guitar for these:

White Lights
Cooperstown, ND
Keep Me Away From the Mirror
Idaho #1
Needles and Pins

Guitar and vocals for these (though we might have to redo vocals because of my speech impediment):

Hecksher Field #3
The Cold Wind Blows on the Soulless Soul (or whatever the hell I end up calling this song)

And piano (sorta) for this:
Will You Lie With Me in My Deathbed

It was fun. There's rain on a couple of the songs. It's going to be a rain-soaked lullabye. I was talking to may dad on the phone today and I asked him what the weather was like and he said "pretty rainy." That would make a good album title, right? Pretty rainy?

the propaniacs

The Propaniacs episode of King of the Hill Season 4 would make a good spin-off I think. Like a variety show or something.
