these are things that make me happy in the pants, and they should make you happy too if you know what is good for you!

july 22: the spits @ the beachland

so about that vacation...beth and i are finally taking our week vacation from work at the same time and we are DETERMINED to go somewhere and have some fun. only problem is, we can't think of where to go that won't cost us too much. i am dying for graceland, but i dunno, it would probably cost too much in gas to get us there. that's why i need your help. any ideas??? i have already gotten the following suggestions, none of which are helping much:

to review, WE NEED SOME GOOD SUGGESTIONS! haha. fun/stupid/silly/inexpensive ideas. we have a few days to waste at the end of august, so help us think how to accomplish that.

the other nite, beth and i spent the evening sitting in our underwears in the air-conditioning watching old monkees episodes and eating pizza. it was a dream. the only thing that would have made it better was if we had ice cream for dessert, served to us by tristan in his jean jacket and not in his backpack and glasses nerd outfit.

i loved the other day when beth and i were getting our records together to dj our brothers graduation party and all the sudden she said "did you ever think in your life that we would be sitting around trying to make plans with a dead boy?" haha. ok, i guess life isn't always so bad.

speaking of which...sometimes there are people you are so thankful to have in your life, even if you don't really know them the way you should (i.e. face to face). for me that is my guardian angel, jason hero. that is his punk rock surname i gave him. he always cheers me up and looks out for me and tells me i am ok when i feel like i am the worst. AND sends me manges cds! haha anyway, he makes me feel better when i feel like shit, and he never fails. i can't thank him enough times. but stuff like this puts a smile in my heart no matter how black my days are:

In closing, I'd like to remind you that you are truly awesome. As far as I'm concerned (and I dont know how much my opinion matters) you're the real deal. Any guy who hasnt figured that out by now is a fucking idiot. You're beautiful and smart, funny and kind....and that doesn't even begin to cover everything thats amazing about you. I mean, there's the rock n roll, the radio show, your kid-like need to be silly, among many many other things. I've only touched on a fraction, believe me. I WISH I could find a girl even half as special as you that liked me, ya know? I hope this is getting through...you're just great and the mere idea that you are alone is a travesty. That's the point to all this. But I will say that if you're ever lonely and desperate enough, remember that you've got a nice fanbase in Toledo, hahaha.

so. yeah. i dunno. in other news, i have this problem where i can't stop liking this boy that is so so wrong for me. then again, isn't that always the problem?
