your life is hype

So I came across this picture of Sara Quin's feet at an indy concert, and it got me thinking about life (funny how that happens).

I've read that sara likes to wear her pants too short, and that the red and yellow zebra stripe hi-tops are her favorites. I was thinking, particularly considering the uncertainty of my life right now, that sometimes life is like sara's too short pants and crazy shoes. Who else is going to wear their clothes like that? Not many people. But sara does it. and she makes it cool.

you see, life is weird. it's rarely what we plan, and even less often what we want it to be. but each of us has our own unique, original life. we wear it our way, and we make it cool because it's ours and it's what we like.

also, the pieces of our lives don't always seem like they will fit together as perfectly as we want them to; maybe we should just step back and let them be what they are. make it work, and do it with style. just like sara.

cheezy life stuff over.
on a fresher note, this might be the only entry i write about sara. and it really isn't "about" her. it's about life. but you get the point. she's sweet. she's smart, and she writes great music, but sometimes she reminds me of my sister. and i get annoyed.


and in the way that i'm not keen on just cutting off my right arm and giving it to someone else...
I'm not ready to hand over the hatchet.
it has a lot of meaning, and sort of feels like a piece of me. I'm going to have to have a distraction for wednesday evening, so that I can deal with this in a less emotional way.

also, for you, i'm going to try out the youtube video feed feature, so that you can watch all these videos i recommend with less trouble. and without me having to embed them all. really more about me i guess, but still sort of about you. sorry.


i bought season 3 of the L word on dvd this weekend. a treat to myself. the episode of dana's memorial also has tegan and sara in it; actual tegan and sara. not just music. (ulterior motive?? perhaps) super excited about that. it's like 20 some odd hours of the l word. on MY tv.
of course, in order to watch it, i'll have to take out It's not fun, don't do it.
Decisions, decisions.


from the title of the entry, i leave you some old school t/s... watch:
