Cor. Last few days have been nice, got most of the afternoon off. Well, I didn't technically *get* it off, I *took* it off. Well, I mean, whatever.
Get home early and what do I do? CLEAN MY BLEEDIN' ROOM. Cor. But I'm getting a new floor this weekend, so I have an excuse. I can quit whenever I want to!
Anyway, here's some lovely responses of mine in a quiz book I found:
My best dream was about…
being George and strumming on toothbrushes with John.Your grandma is visting for the holidays and present you with a nerdy snow hat she's knitted. You'll look like a dork if you wear it. What do you do?
I certainly hope you are not suggested my wool hat is nerdy. If so, I might have to hurt you.
(by the way, this was a multiple choice question!)Create a new dance craze. What is it called and how do you do it?
Davy Toybox Dance
jump, kick, kick, repeatIf you could have as much as you wanted of one thing for the rest of your life, what would that item be?
George
So yeah, I was a weird kid. But seeing as I was talking about the Beatles and Monkees, that wasn't really that long ago.
Now, to my surprise, I happened upon a little black notebook that I thought I'd ripped up. I tend to do that when cleaning my room. I see a lot of embarrassing things I wrote and just want to get rid of them. But this, I shall share with the internet. Lovely.
Ah, but what is in this notebook? These are the first songs I wrote. They are awful. I apologize in advance. The stuff in square brackets are notes by me now. It's sad, I remember pretty much exactly the tune I'd intended the songs to have.
Dreams
Teddy Bears are dancin'
Unicorns are prancing.
pupies are playininwiththda ball.
And as the princess walked into the hall she saw… [several squiggly lightening bolts here to indicate a dramatic pause and long drawn out saaaaw][now the song gets faster!]

(start of quietly) Just, gonna be myself [the letters "self" start at the bottom of the line and go upwards, indicating a rise in voice pitch or loudness or something]

You my call em a true love.

But, their out there
somewhere.I meet him at the park today
What should I[obviously the song is not finished, and the next word was probably "say"]
If only
[well, I suppose this was supposed to be an instrumental seeing as that's the only thing on the page, heh. I got the title from this book about people only being able to have two kids or something, and there was a couple with three kids, and someone said about how "if only" are the two saddest words.]
Ugh. Awful.
Didn't even date them. I suppose it was around the time when I was into Christina Aguilera, which I guess was late 90s early 00s? Early 00s makes it sound like not that long ago, but it's 2006, which I keep forgetting is 6 years past 2000. Duh.
