the difference between stuff i support and stuff i do.

let's make the distinction clear, ladies and gents. there's stuff i do for shits and giggles, or to be more cynical about it - stuff i don't love but do cause i feel obligated, and there's stuff i support, to be even more cynical, i'd die an ecstatic orgasmic death supporting the damn thing.

STUFF I SUPPORT:
one) Aware Records. not cause i work for them, but because they are on their shit.
two) quietdrive music LLC. because kevin and i have plans for a shared wardrobe
three) the chicago music scene because it's always offered me a place to sleep
four) the minneapolis music scene because it reps itself.
five) the varsity theatre (the venue, not necessarily the artist that play there)

STUFF I DO:
one) Bootleggers. cause the bartenders are sex.
two) weteam. because coincidentally, their band logo is the same symbol i was going to have emblazoned on my skin.
three) merch whoring. because i'm building up my resume
four) MSA student at large election facilitator. because then i can have as many free cups of chai as i want.


also, for the record, my preference lies with things i SUPPORT.

why smart people do/say stupid things.

so there's this guy i know that has a blog (http://johnpaulroney.blogspot.com)

and every time he writes a blog, there are a bunch of (for lack of a better word) loonies who leave comments that 1) are always longer than the blog entry in question; 2) overly analytical; 3) contain WAY more information that you, as a blog reader would ever care to know about said loony's life to the point that it creates a deeply seeded and festering annoyance every time you want to comment said blog because you have to scroll past what seems like fyodor dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment in it's entirety - but only because you know 1/2 of it is irrelevant bullcrap. or maybe it's just me.

and i don't actually know why "smart" (assuming the loony IS smart) people do/say dumb things. but they do. my advice? twitter. concise ideas wouldn't kill a sister. learn to be brief. quickly. because the more you talk, the dumber you sound.

"...much virtue in 'IF'..."

as the seasons change, and our behaviors begin to settle, i find myself swept up with the desire to dream.

here's to the sunny spring days and the cool spring nights i'll spend with my head in the clouds - wondering "what if...."

Your If is the only peacemaker. Much virtue in If.
-William Shakespeare
