Poor Stuart. Once again we are the minority(not a reference to that horrid Green Day song). Not that I live in Glasgow or anything, but I do feel a sense of community amongst the fans. Boy that sounded stupid eh? I do feel sorry for you Glasgow Uni students. So is the comedian considered hip or whatnot over there? I mean, he did get nominated in the first place. Oh, and don't worry...I always ask for autographs. Well, I've been consuming unhealthy amounts of Jolly Ranchers candy as of late. See,I've had papers to write/projects, etc etc. Thus I've slept like a night watchman. Coffee doesn't help either, it has no effect on me. Candy seems to work. I guess it's the sugar rush or whatever it's called. Although I think I'm becoming immune to the jolly ranchers. Maybe I should switch to Chupa Chups or something. Speaking of junk food, the little pringles guy is now singing Screamin' Jay Hawkins' "I put a spell on you." Kinda creepy, coming from a potato chip carton. This week a college radio station did a one hour retrospective on Belle and Sebastian. In the first minute he already said "they got their name from a 1960's television show about a boy and his dog." *sigh* Well, at least he got the boy and dog part right. Then later he said Isobel sang "Waiting for the Moon to rise." It wasn't until after the song when someone corrected him. But he still made it sound like they were the ones who were wrong: "So SARAH sings..." I saw the preview for that Harry Potter film yesterday. My eyes widened and I began to laugh. I pointed at the TV and said "It's wee chris!!" The kid looks alarmingly like Chris Geddes, I must say. Last night I was listening to "Cherry Chapstick" by Yo La Tengo, and I keep thinking it sounds like another song..but couldn't think which one. It keeps bothering me... Oh I finally heard Paradise Motel...really really great! I felt as if in a dream when listening..it's so ethereal. Speaking of dreams..have we all been having B&S dreams lately? Last week I dreamt I lived in some odd basement apartment in some haunting living community (reminded me of the campus in "gattaca")in the 60's. Anyway, Stuart and Isobel were there (along with a comedian from Saturday Night Live, Jerry Minor). Well Stuart went outside the apt. door because there was a lost child, so he went to go help it find its mother. Isobel stayed in and sat at my dining room table, which had nice christmas lights hanging over it. I made some spaghetti for her, which she wouldn't eat. She looked as if she didn't want to be there. So I served the food, and changed the cd in the stereo(I forgot what was playing) and put in "The Girl from Ipanema." She said "Oh this I like" but still stared at her plate. Later Stuart came back in, but had to leave again to walk with some other child, and some woman with long black hair who was very pretty. That's about all I can remember. Oh, and Jerry would not eat his spaghetti either. xx Michelle mmmitten "Bonheur n'est pas gai" -Vivre sa Vie __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
