some things I've been thinking about:
1. Hinder sucks, right? Their song is beyond ridiculous, right??
Why is everyone loving them? I thought it was just Dallas, but I come back to Houston, and the radio is talking about their sold out shows, etc.
Any song that starts with "honey, why you calling me...so late?" is doomed for suckage.
2. Things on my list that I am having a hard time finding:
-puzzle
-sugar free oreos
3. Thomas Harris and Hannibal Lecter.
The forward that Thomas Harris writes for Red Dragon is pretty amazing. He describes trying to write the book while living in a house in the middle of a cotton field in the Mississippi Delta.
"Sometimes at night I would leave the lights on in my little house and walk across the flat fields. When I looked back from a distance, the house looked like a boat at sea, and all around me the vast Delta night.
I soon became acquainted with the semi-feral dogs who roamed free across the fields in what was more or less a pack. In the hard winter months with the ground frozen and dry, I started giving them dog food and soon they were going through fifty pounds of dog food a week. Thye followed me around, and they were a lot of company--tall dogs, short ones, relatively friendly dogs and big rough dogs you could not touch. They walked with me in the fields at night and when I couldn't see them, I could hear them all around me, breathing and snuffling along in the dark. When I was working in the cabin, they waited on the front porch, and when the moon was full they would sing."
That's the life I would be leading in a parallel universe.
Also, why did Starling and Hannibal Lector end up together? And she ate brains.
4. A wedding that I might have to go to by myself. umm...not my own.
5. Elissa is leaving to go to MN soon and I will not get to see her before she leaves bc of some terrible traffic near Waco.
