With the roar of cars and the lulling of the cafe bars...

Reason #9 why I don't like Livejournal: really disturbing icons!
I was perusing a favorite LJ music community, when I stumbled upon an icon that read, "What a fuckin' wonderful world" and behind it was a picture of people hanging themselves. Yes, hanging themselves. I'm sorry, but who finds that funny? I found it quite disturbing. Sure, I had those lame, unjustified feelings in high school of "abandonment" and such, but come on. One day I will do a post about why I don't like Livejournal--and why I do.

In the meantime, I'm still recovering from last night's Angels/Yankees game. It was, hands down, the best game I've seen all year. Absolutely nail-biting, pitch-by-pitch gloriousness. Now this is why I love baseball as much as I do. And how elated was I to see the Yankees get eliminated in the first round of the postseason! Yes, I have a dislike for them that pales almost all others. I'm pulling for a Chicago/Houston World Series. That would be both unbelieveable and amazing. (But it's more likely to be Chicago and St. Louis, err.)

OK, that's it. "Legionnaire's Lament" is officially my favorite song by The Decemberists. Wow.

Now Playing: The Decemberists- "Legionnaire's Lament"
