dust collecting

"I just want to be one true thing that don't fade" BRMC

Check out Molly's blog for more musical inspiration from Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. her link is on my page, molly rocks. by the way, i gotta learn how to post music on here too among a lot of other things like make it not look so boring. i just haven't had time to devote to things like a blog. oh well, besides complaining i've been doing ok i guess. i went to the laundromat this weekend to wash some long overdue dirty clothes. you know you need to do laundry when you start turning your dirty socks inside out. i'm not used to going to laundromats, this is the first place i've lived that didn't have laundry facilities. i don't really mind though, they're kind of fun, especially when they're next to a record store.

there's one next door called vinyl fever so i went to check on the records and make sure they weren't collecting dust. i got a free kasabian 7 inch single for telling the guy that worked there a joke. you were supposed to buy the cd to get the vinyl single but he was feeling nice i guess cause my joke sucked. i used the one uma thurman uses on pulp fiction about the tomatoes. i made this really long rendition of it that really made no sense. the original joke goes, "what did the papa tomato say to the baby tomatoes as they were crossing the street.....KATCHUP!" i was kind of nervous so my version was something like,
"um, ok, there was this family of tomatoes, and they were crossing the street, wait, oh the mama and papa tomatoe go across the street first, and um, i think they say something to the baby tomatoes, (nervous laughter dispersed intermitently throught) and he says, damn it, i forgot, oh wait i remember, he's waiting for them to cross and he says katchup!

he said i needed to work on the punchline but he gave me the record anyway. i think i deserved it after making such a fool out of myself. oh well, we all got a laugh and i got a free record. i think it was worth it.
