Sulking

I am sulking at home. Why you ask, because I couldn't find a ride back home from Cat's Cradle, where Rooney was playing. The doors have just opened, and I would be marching my way in to the venue hall this very moment. Even though I already saw them last summer. I still wanted to see them again and I wanted to see the opening acts. Maybe I should have planned this early on and not wait til the last minute. Oh well, maybe next summer I will see them.


Work was really exhausting today. It was pretty busy for a Saturday. Maybe it was the fact that Peter Pan was performing or the crappy weather we are having today. Either way I am tired! There is a girl at work that has a big attitude. All day, all she does is talk about how my methods(the way I do things) are the only thing I know how to do, and I am thinking no I have been working here for 9 months. My methods are the best way for me to be as productive as I can be. If they weren't they would have fired me months ago. If they don't work for her then OK. Just stop talking about how my methods are the only methods I know. It took me a while to find out how to best be productive. I just really wanted to say that to her "in the nicest possible way". All she does is talk about her child and how she had to raise herself and that she is 27 years old. I just keep thing OK I heard you the first thousand time. Geez. Hopefully she changes her attitude. I don't know if I can stand it for any longer.


New subject, but what to talk about. Um....I think next week I am going to post up what outfits I have and the (0) people that are reading this can help me decide which outfits to choose. I can't decide so I need some audience participation. Even though that is very limited. Speaking of outfits my mom gave me some of her vintage belts. I am really excited to wear them, especially to New York. I LOVE belts, if I could I would belt everything. It is an obsession of mine, except I only like to belt my waist not like jeans shorts. Just like dresses and skirts, which are my favorite clothing items.


Going back to work, but not talking about my co-worker, I have to work a really long day tomorrow. I have to work at the store from 12-5, then switch to IMAX from 5-9:30. I am going to be really exhausted. Lets just hope that it will be very, very, very slow tomorrow.


So I am trying to write down any attractions I want to see on my first trip to New York. I kinda want to see a movie at MOMA, as they call it. If someone is actually reading this can you help me figure out what to see. Just leave a comment.


MUSIC NEWS


I think I should add a music news section every week, your thoughts? Well I don't really care what you think because I am going to do it.

So this week I got a hold of Coldplay's new album. Although Perez has dissed it, I very much enjoyed it. There are some great tracks on it. My favorite is "Lovers in Japan" it is like a quintessential Coldplay love song full of flowing, piano-led melodies and Martin's warm, reassuring vocals.


Carl Barat, Dirty Pretty Things, was hospitalized for acute pancreatitis. They are still running tests and he might have to face operation. The band has already cancelled two dates on their tour. Ohlala.


Music I have been listening to lately is some oldies. I kind of grew up on oldies since it was the music my parents always listened to. I have enjoyed The Drifters, Four Tops, The Youngbloods, The Foundations, The Temptations, Otis Redding, Beach Boys, Smokey Robinson, The Mamas and the Papas, The Turtles, The Box Tops, Supremes, Bob Dylan, The Byrds, The Lovin' Spoonful, Sly and the Family Stone, Spiral Starecase, Lesley Gore, The Impressions, Lulu, Righteous Brothers, Sam Cooke, Harry Nilsson, Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons, Neil Sedaka, Little Eva, Peter & Gordon, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole, Paul Anka, Edith Piaf, Teresa Brewer, Jo Stafford, and some good old Beatles. Now if you don't know a name maybe you should try the artist out. If I have listed it, it is some good oldies. Currently I am listening to Simon & Garfunkel. Great music.

I suddenly I had this craving to watch this movie a saw about a year ago. It was on TCM, my favorite channel, but the thing is I never knew the name of the movie. If I remember correctly, it was about this spiritual family in the 50's. They believed in the stars and they even named their 12 daughters after stars or planets. They lived in this nice place upon the hills, where the whole family stayed even though more than one daughter was over 21. It all centered around this love story of the rich guy, maybe wanting to demolish some of their property. I can't really remember. But I think I got the justs of things. If anybody knows the name please help me. Also, it was in black and white, if that helps.

Bon.

Until tomorrow,
Carey
