It is late. I am hyper. And I have just visited walmart at an hour that is not my custom.
oh boy.
1. My mother needed a padlock. We asked a dude, (who was lookin' a wee bit fancy for walmart) (I mean, khakis and a button-up shirt? In walmart? for realsies?), where the padlocks were and he was like "Pad- LOCKS? They're over here."
Pad - LOCKS?
What other two syllable word that starts with 'pad' is there?
The only thing I could think of was "Paddington", but that has three syllables (pad-ding-ton),
and why would we be looking for a Paddington anyway? He's a bear that wears a raincoat and galoshes, (gaaah. I love that word. So much more fun than "rain boots". Though, "wellies" is a good term too. The word galoshes reminds me of the word "galumph", which is basically to do a victory dance, if I remember correctly. Galumphing in Galoshes. hehehe. ), and he's in an australian children's show. I'm not even sure why this came to my mind, because I've never really even watched it myself, I just know of it because one of my friends has an adorable little sister who watches it.
yeah.
2. I saw a notebook featuring characters from the movie "Cars". Lightning Mcqueen to be specific.
And, of course it had his catchphrase on it. "KA - CHOW".
'Cept for they had spelled it like so: "KA - CIAO".
WHAT THE TRASH!?????
That's just not right.
3. On our departure through the gateway to walmart, mine eyes perchance to linger upon an announcement of an upcoming newfangled children's plaything.
Except it wasn't really newfangled. Just a re-imagining.
It was an announcement for furbies. Which are pretty dang creepy on their own.
But the slogan on the sign said: "Furby - a mind of its' own", and it had a little creeper furby right above this odd statement.
Pardon me,
but isn't that..
just a little bit..
Unsettling?
I'm pretty sure this was dumb and that when I look at it again sometime tomorrow, I'll face palm like no other.
But here's a good song.
Hey Marseilles – Marseilles
Hey Marseilles – Marseilles
I'm feeling lazy (as usual) so if you don't have spotify I'm sure you can find a way to bring this to your ears. You're pretty smart.
This song is lovely and perfect and parisian, so naturally I absolutely adore it.
It's pretty mellow.
But all of a sudden.....
BAM!!!!!
The cymbals and such crash and it is louder and sweeping and glorious.
Pure.
Instrumental.
Brilliance.
It's wonderful and emotional without using words, which is something that's a little harder to find from modern musicians.
It makes me want to hop on the next flight to france and never return.
Gorgeous Escapism.
That's what this song is for me.
Goodnight. It's lateish and I need to actually get up tomorrow.
