"I know I've said this before; the odds of us actually playing Free Bird are...there ARE no odds. It is not going to happen. I'll start with the first reason: we have NO idea how to play Free Bird. The second reason is: in the lovebug's natural habitat, hearing that would just fucking kill him, wouldn't it? You wouldn't want that, right? He's adorable. He is cute. Thirdly: Even if some, like, pick your deity, whoever, came down from the heavens or the hills or wherever your deity lives, and just blessed us with this vast knowledge of Free Bird and things, and we could play it backwards, sing backwards, we could do all that crazy shit, we still just wouldn't do it. If this were the Make-a-Wish Foundation and you were gonna die in 20 minutes, just long enough to play Free Bird, we still wouldn't play it. And here's the end reason: the end reason is that life is just too fuckin' short to play or hear Free Bird."
Today, I highly recommend you go out and download/buy/whatever Baron von Bullshit Rides Again by Modest Mouse. Even if you aren't a fan of them, it's still a stellar live album. After "Paper Thin Walls", they got heckled to play Freebird. Issac, in his infinite wisdom, gave them reasons why they won't (see above).
Finally moved into the apartment and I just had a chance to sit down and get everything straight. My room looks pretty awesome; I got a few posters up and once I start getting some income, maybe I'll get some more. Speaking of income, I got a server job at J. Alexander's. The restaurant seems pretty nice, in between fully upscale and Chili's. Most of their prices are double digits, so I'm expecting decent tips :D
In other news, everything is going great. Janet is here, I have a job, my roommates are pretty cool most of the time, and my best friend now lives less than a block away. Life is officially awesome. I know once school starts on Monday, I'll be regretting saying that, but such is life. Maybe I'll take a semester off and just work, then do summer and winter intersessions to make up for it.
So many opportunities. I love college.
