let me see

after having a tough few days, being home by myself feeling delirious and sick (yet again) has not been the perfect cure. i've felt lonely, bored, restless and lightheaded, and all i've been able to do is watch TV. yeah, i watched One Life to Live, General Hospital and Lifetime movies. but i also had way too much time to think. as i said to a good friend, being an insomniac and having a cold is the worst combination. all i had left was music, so i downloaded tons. i now have some more Panda Bear and PJ Harvey, as well as some more Grizzly Bear and the newly leaked Animal Collective. between my gigantic sneezes were interspersed songs and a few kitty attacks courtesy of my cat, Scout. i wish i could figure out how to put songs on my blog, but since i can't all i can do is provide titles:


Grizzly Bear "Colorado"
Animal Collective "Daily Routine"
Panda Bear "I'm Not"
PJ Harvey "When Under Ether"
BONUS! team9 vs. stereogum Ratatat vs. PJ Harvey "Ratatat Under Ether"
* it's a mashup of "Wildcat" and "When Under Ether" sooo good (thank you Mitch)

and a bonus picture of my crazy cat (this is how he likes to sleep)

shponder

when i woke up today at 12:30 to a wonderful phone call about what drank i would like to have purchased for me tonight, i looked out my window and saw gray skies. not sure what's wrong with me but seeing gray skies made me the happiest i've been all week. i was feeling a bit more healthy after being plagued with a cold for the duration of the week and i decided to treat myself to a day off doing what i do best, watching movies. 



the darjeeling limited has to be one of the best movies to wake up to. vivid colors, an exciting culture, adrien brody and jason schwartzman and natalie portman, a highly enjoyable soundtrack and lots of prescription drug abuse. but what got  me most were the colors. bright colors and sparkly things are like magnets. i'm automatically drawn to them and, if they are buyable, i will buy them. with this film though, wes anderson's style is extremely attractive to me. especially with the indian colors. i could go on and on about colors but they are beyond describable. i wouldn't do them justice.
 

tonight consists of $3 chamapagne and daft punk slow jams. i'm pretty excited.
