I've been out of the nursery for a while, just reading the posts when I get home from work, getting to know everybody... I'm a little nervous about posting, which I notice is common. I think it's because there are so many good writers on the list! You all write so amusingly! How can a dimwitted lass such as I hope to write anything befitting such an illustrious list? Blegh, I can't. I'll barrel ahead anyway. Damn the torpedoes... I drink way too much chocolate milk. But even though I know it's making me fat, I keep doing it. I have really short breaks at work, no time to eat *and* smoke a cigarette. So I drink chocolate milk and smoke at the same time, and just *feel* like I ate. This morning I took my half-finished choclate milk out of the refrigerator at work before I left, and I noticed a whole bunch more in there. I'll bet they're all mine. Somehow this struck me as extremely funny. I'm waiting to see if the whole refrigerator fills up with half-full chocolate milks. Then I'll *know* they're mine. That would be hilarious. A monument to my greatness. I'm tired and silly. B+S content: I had "Stars of Track and Field" stuck in my head all day. Especially the part about terry underwear. No one knows who they are here. And it's so hard to describe what kind of band they are. Especially to people who wouldn't understand what "indie" means. And so I pack plastic bottles at work, listening to B+S inside my head. hmmm....my opinions are not nearly as elitist or "hip" as they once were...since I got married, I haven't been part of any scene. So, I've made do, and learned that you can really be friends with all kinds of people, even if they listen to crappy music, and you have nothing in common with them. But certain music (like The Smiths and B+S) has become such a part of me, my identity, that I still feel really alienated sometimes. You can't explain to them what you listen to, and they probably wouldn't like it anyway. Ack, this has become redundant. But you understand what I'm saying. In a sort of response to recent posts (I don't remember who wrote them, but you will know who you are): to the girl in Oklahoma, so am I. To the girl who has a mad crush on a married man, so do I. But anyway. Hi, everyone! I will beat a hasty retreat now. XXXOOO Jenny __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
