'the adventures of a thirty-ish university graduate' or, alternately and perhaps much more aptly: 'as mad as a barking fox'

the lakes district

i was supposed to be running off to class, but in stead i was slowly wandering around, soaking in belle and sebastian for what must have been the fifth time today. surprisingly, it hadn't been me who had put it on. kate had.

"isn't it great that..." i started off, meaning to complete it with i came along and saved you from musical oblivion? but that wasn't quite right.

"no, not quite right at all." that inner voice told me. "more like overtly snobbish."

there was nothing to be saved from, because music depends on taste, which is totally subjective. although i cannot help but wonder where her love for ja rule came from...

so instead i finished off my thought with "...we have belle and sebatian to save us from silences?" or something along those lines. whatever it was, it was definately less self-incriminating than the self absorbed line i had been intending to say.

definately more accepting. look ma, i can so think before speaking.

or at least think while i am speaking.
