Non-Sequiturs

Unfortunately, my beloved Cowboys didn't make it through the latest episode of The Amazing Race. Here's hoping that Justin and Zev win!

Based on this trailer, if the movie is only 1/4 as good, it will be awesome.

Cody Ross is too damn cute. And he has a really good sense of humor.



Coachella 2011 is barely over with and my gang are already looking at houses for next year.

I think it is time for Survivor to go away. The past couple of seasons have been a huge bore.

The Lollapalooza lineup came out this week and, aside from a few bands that didn't play Coachella that I wish I could have seen (Lykke Li, A Perfect Circle, Friendly Fires, and The Cars), I was not that thrilled with it. Most of the bands played Coachella, so there really isn't much of an incentive for me to ponder going. It's still a good lineup, I just wish there were some more amazing grabs.

I finally watched Black Swan on DVD. Although Natalie Portman was fantastic, and deservedly won the Oscar, I thought the movie was just ok. The pacing was all over the place and I never really connected with the character of Nina all that much.

We also watched Skyline and Season of the Witch. That is a collective 3 hours I will never get back of my life. Stupendously horrible.

Lyrics Rattling Around My Head

"I feel the need to go
and distance is the goal
if memory serves me right
I've done this before

I used to close the door when everything went wrong
you don't need to call I ignore everyone
nothing against you but you dragged me for too long
too long

this is me in my sorrow
this is me at eighteen
this is me at my greatest
all my friends begin to weep"

"I salute you Christopher
I declare you as our king
Or queen, depending on your mood"

IAMX
"I Salute You Christopher"

"Rather live out a lie than live wondering
how the fire feels while burning
for life is like a flame
and the ashes for wasting
so honey don't be afraid
to dance while we're waiting
we will live longer than I will
we will be better than I was
we can cross rivers without wind
we can do better than i can
so dance while you can
dance cause you must
love out of lust
dance while you can"

Lykke Li
"Love Out Of Lust"
