here's some random things i did this week.i heard mostly swearing today because my family went on a "pleasant" old boating trip. wouldn't the world be so much better if everyone were female? there would be a lot less temper tantrums.
i washed my car and my mom's and vacuumed my car.
heard my dad say the f word a lot this morning. a whole lot.
went to eui's. stood around and listened to punk, then techno, then heavy metal, then classical. all while standing around watching the neighbor's grill spew smoke for a long time. then we went swimming and went to the pet store because i want another kuhli loach. but they didn't have any :(. i got one in kalispell a few years ago and he was the coolest fish EVER!! hence, kuhli. nurr. and he lived a really long time. second up to my first pleco. he dug tunnels in the gravel and he had orange and black stripes! want a picture?
EEEEEEEEEE!
then we all came home and eui and em dubbed the first half of metropolis. and nothing else really happened.
there's always one moth in here. one. not two, not three, one. and it's always a different one.
i think i may have figured out the rock opera album, american idiot. yes it has taken me nine months!! it's not just JOS and Homecoming that are the operas, it's all the songs put together that tell the story. though i still haven't figured out the term "underbelly". i think it means the group of...rough people that he knows. you'd have to listen to it to get the personalities of the characters cuz i don't feel like explaining. tracks 1-2-3-4 are just introducing the jesus of suburbia. apparently he's leaving home to at least a slightly slummy part of town. and it's pretty obvious he's against the mindset of america, yes? by tracks 4 and 5 he's feeling pretty alone in this new strange place. but then he meets saint jimmy. a lot like JOS, but more hardcore. they're fast friends. he introduces JOS to drugs in track 7 to keep their minds off the pain. JOS falls in love with whatsername (she's a rebel and extraordinary girl) but they start turning bitter on each other by the middle of extraordinary girl. she can't stand this place anymore and skips town in letterbomb. track 11...in hell, wake him up when september ends. parallel to bj's life because his father died in september. in homecoming (another 5 part song!) saint jimmy commits suicide. east 12th street parallel to bj's having to fill out papers for a dui last year. jos finds a postcard from his friend tunny, similar to tre's life (ha ha.) part five the jesus of suburbia's coming home again. and the last track is self explanatory. i'll never turn back time/forgetting you but not the time. and that's the briefest summary of my favorite cd...
