#1: More Rockin' Library Titles, Many of Which Would Make For Some Nice Band Names of Multiple Genres.
Parrot in the Oven
Leroy and the Cavemen
Girlhearts
Jason's Women
The Stalker
Cowboy on Ice
A Boy No More
The Muffin Child
The Solid Gold Kid
The Girl of His Dreams
Patti's Pet Gorilla

Title Find of the Week (But Not in the Children's Section) By One Jon Smith: Pop-Porn.
Nice title, bros.
#2: Some Songs That I Had Stuck in My Head, But With the Wrong Lyrics, Which Took Me Forever to Realize
"Bring a corpse, Jeannette, Isabella."
"Traitors and pirates now fight him in vain."
#3: Things I Ate for Dinner Last Week
Wednesday: Andes Mints + Value fries from Wendy's.
Thursday: Lasagna. Yum.
Friday: Dinner at Osaka's, where they have an entire MEAL of GYOZA. HOLY COW. Though it is too bad Yamato doesn't have the same thing, since their gyoza is five thousand times better, I think because they cook it in different oil that doesn't taste quite as burny, but still. It was scrumptious.
Saturday: Moar lasagna.
Sunday: Lentil soup + raw vegan ice cream + a salad of strawberries, greens, sprouts, cauliflower, and Cafe Rio dressing. I've never known how desperately much I like cauliflower. It tastes just like broccoli, but without the Satanic texture.
Also: It started on Sunday because I can't remember what I ate on the other days. Something.
#4: Some Notable Dreams of This Week
Two nights ago: I was an extra on the set of the new Twilight movie. People kept dying on set because everyone hated Twilight so much so they kept sabotaging the set, which looked like the pit underneath the Tower of Isengard. An actress stood on a mountain and gave an epic speech about how Twilight would overcome all things. An old man was sad.
Like a week ago: I was a vampire, which just meant that during the day my face was just a skeleton, which I tried to cover up with a scarf in a department store so people wouldn't know I was a vampire. It kept getting harder to breathe and I kept trying to figure out why, and then I thought, oh, it is because vampires don't have to breathe, so I kept trying to stop myself from breathing, but I couldn't. In retrospect, this is probably a good thing.
Also like a week ago: Miranda and I went to a concert. She was seated by one of the Beatles, who was not a Beatle but looked like a member of Kiss. Then I spent the concert trying to name the Beatles and figure out which one he was, but I could not, because my Beatles knowledge = nothing.
#5: Some Marvelous Things My Swahili Teacher, Who Is Wonderful, Has Said in Class
"No hurry in Africa. Just very relaxing."
"That fish will run away from me on the bus."
"What happens with my cats here?"
"You go to the Rift Valley Area, where the weather is so friendly."
"I know I dream about those scary things myself. They come after me in the night."
"I always remember sometime when I dream."
"You know...is good."
By the way, my Swahili teacher can say 120398123098123098 times more things in English than I can say in Swahili, since all I can say is:
"Jambo"
"Amina" (=amen)
And also the last for months of the year: Septemba, Oktoba, Novemba, Desemba.
IN CONCLUSION, I am going to bed now.
I still envision Cowboys on Ice as a hard-boiled western crime noir, featuring Marshall as a one-eyed, nearly-mute bounty hunter, toting The Judge. A juvie book indeed.
ReplyDeleteAnd to clarify, Pop-Porn was on the sorting shelf and it's my job to shelve it. I wasn't looking for the book, nor did I check it out - though I'm not opposed to doing that, it sounded like an interesting book.
Oh, well, I guess I know that, but the internet does not, so good clarification. I approve of Cowboys on Ice ten times. I think Parrot in the Oven would be like this vibrant punk rock band while Bizzy Bones and Uncle Ezra would be this old black man Southern duo. I don't know. I am just saying.
ReplyDeletePop-Porn? I sure hope my library has this!
ReplyDeleteAlso your blog posts make my whole life.
Yesterday we discovered this show called Meet the Natives: USA and it's about these tribesmen from Tanna who go to America to experience the culture difference and it is the cutest and most entertaining show ever. I think you'd rather enjoy it because srsly. They are the cutest people ever. ANYWAYS maybe sometime I will be able to show it to you/you can find it somewhere.
I LOVE YOU.
YES. I want to read the Muffin Child. But that is because I love muffins and was at one point the Vice President of the Muffin Club. True story.
ReplyDeleteAnd I wish I could remember my dreams like you do. I just wake up and remember that it was weird and entertaining/freaky but cannot remember what events transpired in my dreams!
Also, I love your not-real-song lyrics you were singing. Now I can't remember the real words to "Praise to the Man" because I keep singing "pirates." :)
Aaaaaahhh that is the cutest thing my eyes have ever read! I WILL SEE THAT SHOW, BECAUSE IT SOUNDS PRECIOUS. Probably it is more precious than finding Pop-porn in your library, but I do not know, for sure.
ReplyDeleteAND RACHEL do you know how WONDERFUL it is that you were the vice president of the muffin club??? Would that we all could aspire to your greatness! :) I am jealous.
I love them all. All the words you type, they bring me joy.
ReplyDeleteThe words YOU type bringing me excessive joy! EXCESSIVE JOY INDEED.
