"I Woke Up One Morning Married to a Pineapple. An UGLY Pineapple."
Sunday, December 27, 2009 @ 6:34 PM
Hello world!
Yes yes, I am fully aware that I skipped last week. I won't make excuses. Nay. I shall simply offer up an explanation. And that explanation is hopefully something you've watched many times: our video for All Alone on Christmas. Haven't seen it yet somehow? What a tragedy. You should check it out. We put a ton of hard work into. Julio spent hours upon hours recording it and I spent hours upon hours editing together that video. Our little Christmas present to you. Hopefully you found it to be a worthy Christmas present. I had no idea how tedious and time consuming it would be to attempt to make that. I mean, I knew it wouldn't be easy but it took way longer than I thought. Let me tell you my friend, its not fun trying to line up video to music so that align perfectly. Nor did I succeed in every attempt either but hey, you probably didn't notice. I mean, I think its safe to say that I'm my own worst critic but hey, thats ok. Otherwise I'm sure I would be a woeful underachiever!! Anyway, go see the video if you haven't. There will probably come a time later on in life when I shall feel fit to attempt to tread those dangerous waters again and edit together another Pensive music video for you but that time is far, far away. Like the galaxy Star Wars takes place in.
You'd think with skipping a week that I would have much to discuss, yet, strangely I do not. The last weeks of the year always seem to pass as if in a blur. I'm sure plenty of note has happened in the past two weeks yet I cannot for the life of me seem to recall it. I'm a massive procrastinator. I finished wrapping presents on Christmas morning. After I woke up. But don't worry, I got it all taken care of before it was too late. We had ourselves a very untraditional Christmas this year. A very Christmas Story Christmas this year. No, I didn't break my glasses nor get a BB Gun (sad times, huh) but we did have Christmas dinner at an Asian restaurant just like they did (though, not because the neighbor's dogs ransacked our kitchen and ate our turkey. Nay. It was because we hate cooking and cleaning up after Christmas dinner. Don't get me wrong, cooking is an enjoyable past time. But when it comes to these big event meals, none of us really like them that much. Yeah, they're delicious but are they really worth all the hours and hours of toil and trouble? Me thinks not. Either way, I think its safe to say that this year's holidays were quite memorable. In a good way. By the way, is it safe to assume that everyone else watched A Christmas Story on TBS every year? If not, you should. And don't watch it on DVD. Its just not the same. It doesn't have that same nostalgic feeling to it, ya know? Maybe you don't. Maybe its just me. But thats ok.
Let's see, what else . . . Well, its been far too long of a wait, waiting for that elusive Batman & Robin #7 that I've almost forgotten to magic that is Grant Morrison. It makes me sad. At least Mr. Johns has yet to disappoint. I finally got around to getting a Wii. Speaking of which, did you know that if you look at "Wii" upside down and in a mirror it spells out "M!!"? Thats pretty magical isn't it? Well, I found it wildly entertaining at least. I got my rat babies a new little nest/giant-ball-of-hay and they are really quite fond of it. All three of them are stuffed in there at the moment, sleeping soundly. Like little fur covered angels.
So, did you know that this is going to be the final installment of Patrick's weekly blog for the year? Yes indeed because by the time the next weekend rolls around, its going to be a new month, a new year, a new decade. The decade of Pensive? Let's hope so. I would be so fond of world domination. We'll take you along with us. It'll be fun.
Some of you may be wondering where my much anticipated "Top 100 Albums of the Decade" list is. Well, it ain't here yet. When will it be here? I'm thinking by the end of next month maybe. I mean, let's be honest here, I've been slacking a bit in the past few months and haven't really kept up with the new releases like I did in the old days. I mean hell, I ain't even got the new Dashboard cd yet! I'm working on fixing that though.
"Its log, log: its big, its heavy, its wood. Its log, log: its better than bad, its good!"
I think I'm done. Oh, good job Chargers. They won. And then the Saints lost to the Bucks? How does that even happen? Oh well. Bret better not drop the ball tomorrow against the Bears. I just might cry if that happens. See ya next year!
