Sinister: Yay! It's stuff relating to me in some fashion or another!

[Heather Humble]

Well I thought I'd post again, due to the increase of talk about Portland!

Honey bought a record by our very own Pink Martini- a fabulous band
indeed!  They usually play at my school's winter and/or spring formals,
which are a bit more of a meat market than anything else.  Well, at
least back in the old days when they served us booze.  Now you have to
sneak it in, so it's just not worth it.  But Pink Martini are all right in
my books!

Adam Conover felt all warm and fuzzy inside because our very own Jen from
The Softies and AGSFB emailed him.  Jen felt even more special when I told
her how famous she is now that everyone on sinister heard just how famous
and neat she is!  And Adam is tops, because he likes the Beta Band, just
like me.

Carmel said she just moved to Portland and couldn't find anyone to play
with.  There's a large contingency of indie kids in this here town and a
small contingency of us sinisterees.  Of course we've never had a picnic
despite my lame ass efforts.  I wouldn't be surprised if we've all been at
a few of the same shows, though.  

And non-Portland-related but me-related because I used to live there,
Feather Boa is moving to York, which despite all my bitching and moaning
while I was there, I miss dearly.  I really only met one other B&S fan and
he broke my heart, so stay away from him.  But there were a few other
people I'd see in B&S shirts.  My favorite one to watch (B&S boy, as I
called him) probably finished his degree, so I'm sure he'll be gone.  But
there are lots of ace people at the radio station (as well as a few not so
ace people, but nevermind them), so you should go be one of them.

Finally, lots of people have crushes, myself included.  We met at the desk
lottery last month (we're so academic we have lotteries to see who gets
the best desks in the library) but I couldn't remember his name.  Rather,
if his name was one of two that sound a lot alike.  So last weekend I got
all smart and stuff and decided to check the list and see the names of the
people that sit at the desk he's at.  What are the odds that the two
possible names that could be his are the two names of the people at that
desk?!  Oh the irony.  Needless to say, I've not gotten very far in
talking to him.  I almost put a note on his desk asking if he wanted to
take a cigarette/coffee break with me but decided that would be very sad.  
Friends have suggested everything from rifling through his desk (mmm...
creepy?) to crouching behind bushes and calling out one of the two names
when he passes and seeing if he turns to look (riiiight).  So instead I
think I'll just sit at my desk and think about how silly this all is.  
That and try to think up ways to muster up enough courage to talk to him.

I think that's all.
