it's fuggin hot

and it really shouldn't be cos it's like September it doesn't need to be 100 degrees. Yknow.
Fam. was annoying me so I'm blasting George Harrison music from grooveshark into my headphones but it keeps on sounding like someone is behind me. And there is no one. In any case George Harrison's music is alright. I was reading a book on John Lennon today- not such a good one, but it was a library one, and had some pretty cool pics and had some did I mention really nice pics of very young Lennon & Friends.

And also I've slowly been brainwashing my family with the Beatles. For instance- last night I was had minimized the folder with A Hard Day's Night in it, and it was labelled 'A Hard Day's Night', somewhat aptly, yeah, and my mom was on the computer and numerous times I caught her humming 'it's been a hard day's night...I been working like a dog..." whereupon I was like, 'I should be sleeping like a log..' and then we joined in on 'but when I get home to you all the things that you do..' bit. And even Blake! walked in my room today where I was just singing All You Need is Love while it playing (aha, the only Beates CD I actually own is '1' which is annoying cos it has just the hits or something, and not enough good songs, but it's pretty good) and then like 10 minutes he was singing 'all you need is love, love..' Haha.
I'm listening to While My Guitar Gently Weeps which I like cos of George Harrison but it's weird, the Beatles didn't actually want to record it, they didn't like it so much, so George brought his best guitar buddy Eric Clapton in to do lead guitar so he could sing it. I like the guitar and base in it.
So weirdly enough I really really like Ringo Starr. Like, the vids of them playing, Ringo always looks like he's having a hell of a time and I love Yellow Submarine and Octopus's Garden always makes me laugh. Cos it's a song about an octopus. What up, Ringo. And sometimes I really hate Lennon or Paul because I read about some jerky thing they did (like the wife-beating and cheating and Hello Goodbye, no lol about that last thing) and it doesn't really look like Ringo has ever been so much of a jerk. But I do love George. I liked 'When We Was Fab' and the video which had Ringo and other people and also, was weird, and PAUL IS THE WALRUS?

I'm on Etsy, looking randomly at Beatles stuff, and FOR SOME REASON there is a belt buckle with a picture of JOHN AND YOKO WHAT THE HELLL. Srsly. A belt buckle is weird enough- but with John and YOKO on it?
Ahaha, the number of pages of Beatles stuff on Etsy is '64'. -starts to sing 'when i'm sixty--fouur'

So in something non-obsessed news, I got one of my friends to switch to Foods&Nutrition with me so I'd not be so lonely, although Blue (blue haired chick) is very nice and funny and talks a lot, like me, so she's cool, anyway, we got assigned our kitchens (they are like 8 in the back, mini-kitchens i mean small kitchens not minature stoves and sinks and etc, they are just corner-sized kitchens) We're kitchen NUMBER 5 and so we went to our kitchen, me and Blue and Heather, and I was like, 'KITCHEN NUMBER FIVE MOFOS' and ' HEY KITCHEN NUMBER THREE YOU CAN SUCK IT' and then we were opening the drawers and such and all of them were labelled, like 'silverware', 'knives', etc, etc. One of them said 'Empty.' Blue opened it and was like, dude, there is a thing in here. We collapsed in laughter, 'MY WHOLE LIFE IS A LIE' and 'I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE ANYMORE'. I was laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes, ahah, mrs. Romesburg came back and found us ruffling through drawers and was like, you has work to do.

Does Led Zeppelin have any songs UNDER 5 minutes? I don't think so. They're still awesome though. ANd yes. I'm listening to something other then the Beatles. There's only so many times you can listen to Lennon singing 'if I tell you that I loove you, you'll say you love me too..' because yeah I totally would. Despite the part where I guess we was totally bipolar? or something.

BEST thing on Etsy for serious: BANANAS Yeah! It is a 18"x18" painting of Paul McCartney eating a banana. It looks like the bit from the Beatles coloring book where Paul brushes his teeth (weird to put in a coloring book I know) but here he is eating a banana. It is quite possibly the awesomest thing I have seen this year and if it weren't 50 dollars I would buy it in a instant. As a smaller print, maybe. I want it as a screensaver. Or on a t-shirt. This guy needs to do that, now.

This shirt I really want: John&Paul&Ringo&George. I don't like that one there so much, the weird dot after 'George' throws me off, it's not a period but not a comma, either. And there's no AA Women's Tee. Oh, I found a Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band button. Yay! and an X-Files I Want to Believe and The Killers and the Star Wars Rebel Alliance symbol and a red/blakc pic of Jimi Hendrix button. Which I am all now buying. Ahmwahah. They're a dollar but with 3 dollars shipping cos it's from Spain. And I don't want the button that just says 'The Beatles'. Too obvious. I am actually tempted to ask this person for a custom order of just a button with a picture of Ringo on it, er, no. And there's another set of buttons I want, err, these put oh no I didn't realize it was on white, damn. omg hyperlink END
Ah alright that was close. I really want the, yeah, the J&P&R&G on a shirrt and not a button so next paycheck I'll go in for a shirt..

As a last note type of thing- I listened to Revolution 9 last night. Ohgod that was a weird song. I've been using the word 'trippy' lately but man, that went beyond trippy. 'Number nine...number nine...' It reminded me of, well, 1984. For some reason. And today in class Mr Cowdrey, my Gov. teacher, brought up 1984 and was like, 'anybody read that..anybody?' and I was like, err yeh, and after class was over he said it was cool I've read that book. I like dystopian futuristic books. Like Brave New World and to some extent, A Handmaid's Tale and there are other I can't remem-Oh! Farenheit 451. Yeah. Anyway. Woot goes live in 20 minutes so I should eat something or do my goddamned German homework.
eta: I wrote this over like a period of two hours so it's not so hot now that I post it. like it matters chya

  1. Whoa whoa WIFEBEATING? John and Paul? I knew that John and George both cheated on their wives - John with Yoko and George with Ringo's wife Maureen - but wifebeating?

    And Led Zeppelin actually do have songs under 5 minutes. Like 'Communication Breakdown', and 'Heartbreaker'.

    And I *almost* had a crazy-screaming-fan-girl moment while watching 'The Wedding Singer' when I saw Billy Idol in it near the end. omg. he is gorgeous. and that was very random.

  2. Wifebeating was just John not Paul. When he was with Cynthia. Just in some book I read, apparently he went into just a rage and hit her sometimes.

    ALSO WHAT. GEORGE AND RINGO'S WIFE WTF.

  3. Yup. George and Ringo's wife. But, to be fair, Patti Boyd *was* pretty cozy with Eric Clapton.
