mix tapes, sweet and warm drinks, pastoral pop.
it feels like a sunday because i have the house to myself; the folks are off to church as it's a holy day...i spent last night with friends and it went surprisingly well; peter is so great. i'm such a lethargic dork, and he didn't even mind. plus the guys fed me cookies i haven't had in years. we drove aimlessly for a while, wandered an abandoned and sad mall, went for coffee at the new ihop, and then picked up dave. dave. ! anyway. then we had a sort-of dinner at my house, and watched the odd couple. woo. i'd never seen it, by the way. liked walter matthieu in it a LOT. la.
i made hot chocolate; the teapot just began shrieking. it's finally cool enough in rochester (!) to appreciate hot beverages. mm. there's a box of pocky on the counter; it resembles a pack of cigarettes.
"emma's house" was just on, and then the one about the girl leaving and "that she...has stayed this long..." mm. i've neglected this disc, listened mainly to the other one in the set. peach and pink. pretty and sunlit.
i'm wearing pajamas and drinking hot chocolate and feeling a little woozy. and even if i don't see the guys one more time before i return to school, i know they made the effort to see me at all. it makes me happy. i actually enjoyed company. how odd.
/
also talked the other night with bryce, for the first time really in what, six months? i'll refrain from posting long dialogue, but i do enjoy those wandering hours. (giggle)
the coo coo pigeon sisters. (giggle again)
/
i sent my first ever mix cds out, and he got them. :D
long. it was so selfindulgent; i put things like low and arab strap on there. ee.
but i did try (a little) to remember that he requested the magnetic fields, and i purposely avoided early his name is alive, as it has that gothy label (for better or worse), and he's not into it.
also, these are more silly than serious, as implied by the many, many power ballad covers. :D
it's pretty obvious i have certain mix staples, both artists and individual songs. yep.
...this is much for my sake; i might make my own copies. (pink) also for if he can't read my terrible hand scrawl.
