i've got two big hands and a heart pumping blood and a nineteen sixty seven colt forty five with a busted safety catch

that song (that jaq started quoting and i'm quoting more) is the best. i want to play it at my wedding. specifically the atom and his package cover of it, which is, i would argue, actually much more passionate than the mtn goats original. if the dude i'm marrying doesn't think it's the best love song ever, then i probably won't marry him. also, if he isn't down with riding around on a tandem bike on our wedding day, the whole thing is pretty much off.

today my parents were here and we went to a giant antiques fair, which was chill. i got a dress that my roommates describe as "actually much less ugly than we thought it would be, amy." i sort of look like a secretary from thirty years ago in it. in a good way. no, i swear. it's awesome.

basically i spent most of the day reading people's old postcards. like from 1911 old. they were amazing. one of my favorites was a postcard that said:

KISSING
sometimes i want to and sometimes i don't---
sometimes i will and sometimes i won't.
but there's a time coming when i will be game---
that is, if you are with me and you feel the same.

and then the girl sending it wrote at the bottom: "and your feet aren't cold." that is pretty sassy for 1913, i think.

right now i am downloading the new missy elliott. i can't wait.

aaron got a job! he will probably wear clothes more often now. he seems happy about it and that's good.

i am impressed with kish's list of boys. i don't have the energy to compile such a list, or the balls to put such a list up on the world wide web where someone might read it, or the good fortune to know a handsome man with a yacht. as always, i find myself settling for boys who have bikes.

whoa sweet. my prom date just told me he has a friend who will let us hang out backstage at siren fest. i knew keeping in touch with my prom date would pay off someday.

ok! work tomorrow! goodnight!
