I've been listening to almost nothing
but Chantal Kreviazuk's colour moving and still since I picked it up
at Virgin last week. Her voice is haunting and every song makes me think about
M. Not sure why, probably just because he turned me onto her. She kind of
looks like Alanis on the cover though and that freaks me out.
I have a date with the Texan tonight.
This will be number 2. We're going to see Bring It On and I'm giddy
with anticipation (both for the date and the movie). It's weird - I mean I
had a feeling he was interested, and that intrigued me, but it wasn't until
I found out that he's from Texas did my curiosity really take hold.
Is that weird that I'm more attracted
to him because of where he's from? I mean, really, that shouldn't make any
difference, but it's like we have this bond of solidarity, being native Texans
here in Ohio. But he's a serious native, y'all. Generations there, ready to
secede, the whole nine. I'm just a transplant native, ending up there thanks
to daddy's oil business occupation, but I'm proud of my birth state nonetheless.
It was a never ending topic of teasing
in college. Let's make fun of Hannah and her knowledge of Texas. Well, I'm
sorry I paid attention in seventh grade TX History class. Forgive me for being
enthralled by the stories of Houston and Stephen F. Austin and Travis. And
I do tear up when I think about what happened at the Alamo and the battle
at San Jacinto.
But it makes him feel safe - comfortable.
This is only the second time we've gone out, so I really shouldn't talk like
I know what I'm saying, because right now, I really don't. I'm just excited,
so I thought I'd share.
I'm really annoyed with Yahoo! mail right now. It's just not receiving messages,
and I feel like I've lost an appendage because I can't post on Squishy
anymore. Elaboration - I went to my profile this morning to switch my email
address and when you do that the forum sends you a new password to confirm
your email. I never heard back. Not a peep. And I was so close to being a
Diva. So insanely close. So I tested it by sending myself a few messages from
my work mail. It took 3 hours. And still, nothing from Squishy.
I probably shouldn't bash it too loudly,
this being Geocities and all, but whatever. So everyone (is there anyone?)
email me and we'll see if I actually
get messages. (But really, if I don't get any messages how am I going to know
if it's because Yahoo! is messed up or if it's because no one's reading? Hmmm.
. . .)
I'll let you know how tonight goes. When
it rains it pours y'all, really.
