i want one

did ya postsecret yet today?

made me think

the soap dispenser at jose pistola's.

what was the vandal trying to express?

should we not try to forgive? shun the idea of forgiveness?

or should we try to forget so that we can forgive?

for whatever reason, i prefer to interpret it as the former.

what i should have said, part III

You're right, I do have a belly. But so do you -- even after you've spent $6,000 on liposuction. Oh, and your ass is fat, too.

ain't that the truth

outta my, outta my head

It's yet to be determined, but the air is thick,
and my hope is feeling worn...

And the phone is always dead to me,
so I can't tell you the temperature is dropping
and it feels like...

It's colder than it ought to be in March
and I've still got a day or two ahead of me
'til I'll be heading home into your arms again.
And the people here are asking after you.
It doesn't make it easier.

It doesn't make it easier to be away.

an oldie but a goodie from dashboard.
and it is colder than it ought to be.

what i wish i had said, part II

It's not that I don't drink, or even that I don't like to go out on week nights. I do. Often.

It's just that I'd rather sit alone on my couch, watching TV on DVD, than go on a potentially awkward first date right now.

think thin

i'm usually not one to promote specific products or to force my opinions upon others, but -- wait, yeah i am. especially the latter.

anyway, i have to tell you about a fantastic new snack:

THINK THIN bars!

you should stop what you're doing right now, run out to Trader Joe's, and buy a few of these delicious, healthy protein bars. they're packed with scientifically created nutrition but are very low in carbs and sugar. and they promise to make you thinner!

i know, i know -- a lot of diet foods and pills promise to make you thinner. but in my experience, these bars actually work. how? they give you diarrhea immediately.

at first i thought it might just be me. so i clandestinely tested these bars on two of my unsuspecting friends. this was by no means a reliable clinical trial, but suffice it to say that both friends, at separate places and times, let me know they didn't appreciate the side effects of my chocolatey delicious gifts to them. i don't know about you, but i'm impressed by a 100% reduction in weight among consumers!

in short, whether you're a dieter, a low-carb-er, or a closet lax junkie, these tasty treats might be for you. give 'em a shot!

i'm eating one as i write this. no, really, i am. brownie crunch. it's delicious.

sigh

this song is breaking my heart.

i can't get it out of my head, so i've simply given in and am now listening to it nonstop.

must share.

Flightless Bird, American Mout...

raw emotion

one of my favorite postsecrets as of late.

we read you loud and clear.

basho says...

There is nothing you can see that is not a flower;
there is nothing you can think that is not the moon.

think about it.

what i wish i had said

No, I can't meet with a potential client this morning, because I'm using Crest Whitestrips. Yeah, I'm booked until noon.

outta my, outta my head

though i didn't heart it at first, kelly's Don't Let Me Stop You is quickly becoming one of my favorites on her new cd.

thanks, E, for encouraging me to give this song another chance.

today it's all up in my head, and it wouldn't stop playing even if i wanted it to:

A lot of things I can take
Got a high threshold for pain
But let's get one thing straight
I'm not down to share you with anyone
If that's not what you're looking for
Nice knowing you, but there's the door
'Cause I know that I can find
Someone who will give me what I want

Don't let me stop you
From doing what you want to do
You don't wanna stick to just me? It's cool
Take no chance, get over you
No no, don't let me stop you
If you wanna leave, baby you can leave
Just don't pretend that you're into me if it ain't true
Don't let me stop you

Even if I end up brokenhearted
I won't lie: I don't wanna hear goodbye
But either way I'll be all right

hear here while it lasts.

a holiday FYI, via gchat

me: this isn't a real holiday

david: true

me: this is just a marketing ploy designed by the makers of green food coloring

david: thanks for ridding us of snakes st patrick

how did he rid the island of snakes? some pied piper shit?

me: i think he just prayed or something

i dunno

that's a good thing to wikipedia... hold on

me: and i quote:::
Pious legend credits Patrick with banishing snakes from the island, though all evidence suggests that post-glacial Ireland never had snakes;[38] one suggestion is that snakes referred to the serpent symbolism of the Druids of that time and place, as shown for instance on coins minted in Gaul (see Carnutes), or that it could have referred to beliefs such as Pelagianism, symbolized as “serpents”.

david: so he got rid of the satanists

me: essentially

david: there are still snakes on this muthafuckin plane
me: you always take it too far.

quote of the week, thus far

My grandma wants me to bring you to visit her sometime you are around so that she can take us out for an expensive dinner and then come home and drink many bottles of wine. She LOVES gay men. She has a menagerie of her own and loves it that I have the start of one.

-who else but cass would e-mail to tell me something so precious?
