If I’m not in love with you yet, you only have yourself to blame.

I miss my best friend.

Sometimes when I start to get close to someone, I feel guilty that maybe I’m just using that person because my best friend can’t be here. Which is silly because no can be Oliver but Oliver. However, Oliver can be “Ross.” Or some Mexican dude. But jacket + eyeglasses + “Ross” mode < "Hey, Olli!" in a British accent.

Where the hell are those punks?

P.S. Sorry. This entry is so full of inside jokes because I miss my best friend.

Dear Future Love,

Apart from the obvious cheating, lying, manipulating and general scumbag-ish behavior, bad taste in music is a deal breaker. We don’t need to have the same favorite genre, but even with hiphop there’s good hiphop and bad hiphop. Guilty pleasures are welcome, but a decided lack of good taste is a no-no.

Same goes for movies. Of course. And books. And clothes. Just have good taste, all right?

xoxo

(Inspired by a pic of someone with fugly hair in a fugly shirt. Which now reminds me of another pic of him in fugly shorts. And my thoughts during Saturday’s gig.)

1. I have to stop listening to New Order’s “Age of Consent,” and REM’s “At My Most Beautiful.”

2. Watched yet another Pinikpikan gig. This time at SaGuijo. Kat said she’ll be visiting in November-December. She has got to watch this band. I love them so much. There’s nothing like hearing them play live. I don’t even own a CD (I know, I should be ashamed, but then I don’t have anything illegal either). It simply will never compare. Best live act ever.

3. I need to download some songs so I can whip out SwishMax or something and make a video from all those pics I’ve accumulated in the past year or so. I’ve been spoiled by online streaming. I hardly have any songs on this laptop.

4. Last.fm still sucks big time for making non US and UK residents pay. S-U-C-K-S.

5. Books before CDs. Books before CDs. Payday? Books before CDs.

6. And just for posterity so I’ll remember when I read this a year from now or something, MJ’s been dead for two or three days now.

I am LSS-ing on the Black Eyed Peas’ I Gotta Feeling. I’m not much of a fan of Boom Boom Pow, but I Gotta Feeling just fits my feelings when I’m getting ready to go out.

I have a project with Kathie in the works that I really ought to start already and there’s a publication that I’m thinking of submitting to, but what I am right now is bored. I even have the Todo Patintero post to work on for this blog but I don’t feel like doing it yet. (Btw, Pinoy Records will feature it tomorrow on GMA.)

So I will drag my lazy ass to Makati and enjoy a night of Kalayo (Pinikpikan) with PDI friends. I was originally planning on just hanging out with QC friends but it’s too much effort to gather everyone tonight. Maybe next time.

I have two shooting days in the near future. Well, one will actually be a shooting night. I am very very afraid of the logistics of that project. I foresee sleepless nights this coming week. Better enjoy my free time now, while I can.

I don’t know why the concept of permanency evades me. Maybe because my family always moved so much. I am just chronically programmed to get antsy when left in one place too long.

I wanna move!

Most people see the end/beginning of the month as payday. Me? I see it as pay-the-bills day.

Life is tough.

I don’t care that I have bills, bills, and more bills to pay. Next payday, I am going to get Pride, Prejudice and Zombies, Overqualified, and the Bladerunner graphic novel.

I have not bought a book since Christmas. I think that’s long enough.

Zombies!
