why hello mrs. gps
So my father rented a car here the other day. He’s from out of town, so naturally he doesn’t really know any roads, much less which direction to drive in. So we also rented a GPS along with the car. He’s never traveled while using one before, and this was what happened after we inputted our first destination. By the way, the voice of the GPS was a woman’s.
GPS: In 100...

so my father came to visit
And this was one of the things that happened.
Dad: Oh by the way, I forgot luggage at the airport when I arrived. Me: Are you serious? We can go get it later, it should still be there. *At the airport, after asking a lady to check if the baggage was still there*
Lady: Sorry, we couldn’t locate your baggage, you should try calling the airline itself as they hold onto passengers’...

the worst kind of horror movies
Are the ones with creepy inbreds. In my opinion. I watched the movie Wrong Turn today and The Hills Have Eyes a while back, both were very disturbing to watch.
In other news, I participated in a horror/thriller movie marathon with some friends today, 4 movies back-to-back. It was alright, hopefully no nightmares tonight. We watched Wrong Turn, Homecoming, The Invisible, and Drag Me To Hell.

Did Mike Gillis...
Really just trade Steve Bernier, Michael Grabner, and a 25th overall draft pick for Panther’s Keith Ballard and Victor Oreskovich? Words fail me right now. Cause Grabner is awesome.
Somewhere right now Luongo is scared of getting his head chopped at by Ballard.

pet peeve
When radio hosts don’t mention the name or the artists of the song being played and then you have to Google up the lyrics to find out the name of the song.

Happy Birthday to my Tumblr
Tumblr has just informed me that my blog has turned 1 recently. It’s quite hard to believe that it’s already been a year, it barely feels like I have been posting for more than a couple of months. Hopefully, I can father this baby for days to come.
I shall now hug my Tumblr dashboard to celebrate this momentous occasion. This is not awkward at all.

new music tuesday!
I love Tuesdays, only because it is the day that new music singles and albums are released. With the exception of Miley Cyrus (blah), everything is looking pretty damn sweet right now.
Especially looking forward to checking out: Stars - The Five Ghosts Eminem - Recovery Brandon Flowers - Crossfire (Single)

First Memories
One of first and earliest memories was probably a long time ago when I was perhaps the age of two or three. To be completely honest, there is nothing remotely great about this memory (well, actually it’s kind of funny now that I think about it). So the thing that happened was that I threw up on my mother. It’s strange, because when I think back on the event, I feel like I can only...

OH WOW DOES ANYBODY REMEMBER..
That pop band soulDecision? I think they disbanded a couple years back, but I remember they were quite popular in the early 2000’s. Anyways, one of their hit singles “Faded” just played on the radio, and I can’t even begin to remember how long it’s been that I’ve heard the song or anything by the band. Time sure flies.

a poem to share
I’m not generally a poetic person, nor do I usually read poems, but “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night” by Dylan Thomas has easily become one of favorites. The message that he sends is quite powerful in my opinion, and it definitely leaves you contemplating the truth in what he wrote after reading it.
From what I understand he wrote this about his dying father at the time...

You know a radio station is awesome when..
They play Death Cab for Cutie (specifically “I Will Follow You Into The Dark”). Speaking of which, I generally hate listening to a lot of radio stations these days. All they do is overplay songs, especially the more prominent stations in my area. Most of these songs are usually by artists like Katy Perry, Rihanna, Ke$ha, and Lady Gaga. I swear, every other song that I hear is one by...

Have you ever woken up...
To the glorious sunshine pouring through the blinds? It’s honestly one of the best feelings in the world. From the moment that you open your eyes, all you see is light. There’s just SOMETHING about the light that makes you feel so good. It’s like an instant +10 happiness points and it’s just a great way to start off the day.
But most of the time the weather is gloomy or...

Would it be wrong of me to say...
…that the new temporary Tumblr dashboard theme is pretty SLICK?
NOTE: I think the BP oil spill is a catastrophe. From the pictures and videos I’ve seen to the news that I’ve read, it’s total crap. The lack of consideration for our planet, our oceans, or anything affected by it just pisses me off. It seems like there are barely any solutions that are working, and at best,...
