No… I didn’t get sloppy and pass out. I just thought that was a fitting title because for the past couple of days I have been so frustrated, and it’s making me feel all woozy. Not actually frustrated, but have you ever loved and obsessed over something so much that it makes you angry? Well that was me the whole weekend. It’s kinda like the feeling you get after you watch a Harry Potter movie, and you get really angry cause you know you’ll never be a wizard. Happens to me every time. Anyway, that’s not what I am here to talk about. First, I just wanted to tell a funny story. So this weekend, my family went to Martha’s Vineyard again, and on the way I really really had to go pee. We finally get to the ferry, and we have to wait for a while, so I go to use the public bathroom. I take care of my business, and on my way out I look over at the urinals and… what the fuck. There is this guy with his shlong out, taking a piss, simultaneously eating out of a giant tub of CoolWhip. Just eating the stuff while he’s pissing! Unacceptable I say.
Anyway, the only other thing I wanted to post was a preview picture of a little project I am hoping to start. This is going to take a while, so don’t expect anything soon… but it might be fun. Send me an email if you’re at all interested in submitting art or an article or whatever. It stands for: crazy ramblings, art, and phonography. Yeah, that last one isn’t a word, but pops told me it was a good idea.
I got my wisdom teeth out yesterday, so right now I’m just a big puffy mess. Although my huge face is highly uncomfortable, it has allowed me to do a lot more browsing on the google-internets than I am usually capable of. And thus, I have found some glorious music with the aid of sites like Last.fm and The Hype Machine. First off, you have to watch the video below. It’s by Janelle Monáe, who just released her album The ArchAndroid in May of this year. She is super cool, and she has incredible hair. Her music is really different and refreshing, as is the video below. Take a look!
If you think you might be interested in some of her other music, these are some of my faves: Sincerely, Jane; Many Moons; Violet Stars Happy Hunting!; Cold War; and Locked Inside.
Another artist who I just discovered and am quickly falling in love with is Marina and the Diamonds. Check out her myspace page here. She is a Welsh singer-songwriter who is popular in the UK but is quickly gaining fans in North America. Her video to the song “Oh No!” is quite nice. Give a lil listen! Oh, and please post any links to songs you really like too. I wanna hear ‘em!
Embarrassing that I’m blogging about ice cream again, but my foodgasm meter just got busted up! This stuff makes me wet. My family discovered this ice cream on Martha’s Vineyard over the summer, and it’s just disgustingly good. It’s called “jeni’s” ice cream, check it out here: www.jenisicecreams.com.
Jeni Britton Bauer was inspired to start making her own ice cream while working in a French pastry shop. She uses fresh and exotic ingredients to make ice cream that is “less sweet and more flavorful.” Even Martha Stewart is obsessed with this stuff. In an interview, Martha said about jeni’s ice cream, “I wanna rub this stuff all over my breasts and then lick it off myself.” With flavors like “Pistachio and Honey,” ”Sweet Corn and Black Raspberries,” and “Goat Cheese with Roasted Cherries,” this stuff will turn you into an obese cow in about a week. You can order it online, and although it is a little pricey, it is worth every penny. Buy it. Now. If I could make a baby with this ice cream, I would do it. For reals.
