listening to: tori, etienne (live)

.... i had something to say. i did. what was it? OH! yeah!! i brought neverwhere with me to breakfast this morning, cuz i'm re (well.. more like... re^4 or so)-reading it, and i wasn't sure if erin would be there.. but she was, and so was my roommate and a few other people. but anyway, i was taking it in with me, and the cashier chick was like, "oh? neverwhere? i love that!" and we talked about neil for a bit, and i was like, yay.

and then i sit down, and alicia (my roommate) is like, "i love neverwhere"! and i was like whoa! my roommate likes neil!? how'd i not know?! but it turns out, she's only read neverwhere. but still. and she likes mythology. mwaaahahaha i think i'll have her hooked soon.

but anyway. then like... this is where it gets kinda weird.. random girl next to me sees it and is like, "is that neverwhere?" and i'm like, yeah, i love neil! and she's like, "that's so weird! neil's my friend!" and i'm like, uh.like... not knowing if she means for real, or just you know.. she likes his books. so i said something vague, and she was like "yeah! he lives in rural wisconsin!" and i think i just said like, "yeah?" but um... i feel that neil lives in minnesota. so i don't know if... maybe he really secretly lives in wisconsin? or this girl forgets which state she lives in? or if she's a pathological liar? anyway, and then she said something about like.. holly and bryn mawr.. but i mean, i knew that, he talked about it all the time in his blog, it's not like you'd need to be his superspecial friend to know where his daughter is going to school... so i don't know. it seemed a little shady to me. but whatever.

uh. yes. studying for bio now. *frowl*
