more randomness...

I wish musicians would enunciate their words when they sing. I am listening to a Casting Crowns song (Christian worship) and could swear I just heard "he slips quietly into a bathrobe." There's also a Michael W. Smith song that is half in Latin and half in English but the English pronunciation is so bad you can't tell which is which. And its not just Christian music either. There's a popular hiphop song whose artist I have forgotten but the words not only make no sense but they are barely intelligible anyway. And those songs that involve spelling out the word you are trying to say... wow. Just wow. Don't get me wrong, Garth Brooks has proven its possible to do it and sound good (example: "B-double E-double R-U-N"). But sometimes... especially when you are spelling complicated things like "G-u-y-s-a-r-e-m-o-r-e-t-r-o-u-b-l-e-t-h-a-n-a-r-a-c-o-o-n
-o-n-a-g-a-r-b-a-g-e-n-i-g-h-t."

It gets to be hard to follow.

Yard sales are evil. I just spent (some) money at the one down the street from Steve's place. I now have to make at least 5 home cappucinos for friends in order for the home espresso machine to be worth while. I guess that would be pretty simple. And you can do other stuff like chai and hot chocolate so I guess that's cool.

And I bought the recipe for "perfume that smells like flowery medicine" from two ten year olds. In my day it was koolaid and iced tea, but I guess the ten-year-olds around here are smart enough for perfume. Funny, it has the same ingredients I used in my Death Soup when I was that age. Minus the yew berries. Which made for the "death" part. Ironically when I got to college I discovered the actual reason yew berries are the key ingredient in Death Soup: the seeds in the yew berry contain a toxin that induces cardiac arrest. Lucky for me I stuck with selling koolaid and left the Death Soup in the back room just for kicks.

One of the ingredients on the recipe I bought included "the flowers that smell like fish." Funny cause I immediately knew which ones she was talking about.

I went to church today and Steve very ungracefully fell on top of one of my jujitsu kids. That was... well there's no good adjective. Lets stick with "memorable."

I wasn't in much of a good mood yesterday or today. Well, last night, into today. But I think once I ate lunch, I felt better. I don't know. Maybe I'll still go take a nap and try to start the day over. Despite the beauty of today.

Jujitsu tonight. I guess I'll talk about that after it happens. If there's anything to talk about.
