“mr. brightside” has been going through my head all day

Published on November 24, 2005

You know you’ve slept long enough when you dream about getting up but don’t actually get up. I dreamed, among other things, that my mom was calling me downstairs to help put up the Christmas decorations on the house. The horror.

For those of you with a DivX codec for your Windows Media Player downloaded and installed, view the original Great Expectations teaser trailer (right-click save-as, 66M), courtesy of my roommate and his PC. Sorry Mac folks (including myself–the only way I could see it is here at my parents’), it won’t work for us yet.

I wish I could stay here the weekend but somehow I got scheduled to work tomorrow at the store. Shouldn’t be as hectic as yesterday but the fact that I have to still kind of sabotages my weekend back in Chapel Hill. I wanted to visit people. Maybe in a few weeks.

    I guess I’ll have to wait on the trailer… I went to save it and it projected a time of 8+ hours to do so. Needless to say I stopped. I suppose I’ll have to hope and pray I’ll be able to last until Sunday night without viewing it! Tough as it may be… I will survive!

    Happy Thanksgiving! : )

    Happy belated Thanksgiving to you too! Should I be proud of you for not getting pulled over on the way to TN? :) In any case, wishing you safe travels back home. See you soon.

    Yes, VERY proud… I inherited my grandmother’s eyes, my dad’s shoulders, and my mom’s lead foot! : )

    I probably shouldn’t disclose this, but two Thanksgivings ago I actually got two tickets on the way back home! But those were extenuating circumstances. And, incidentally, both officers told me to say my ferret was driving. :::rolling my eyes::: I told both of them to write the ferret the ticket then, but neither of them thought it was very funny…

    (Did you see the e-mail about the 10th?)

    I had that happen to me as well. It resulted in my ordering the Killers cd the next day. ;)

    The older i got, the less i cared about decorating the Christmas tree. When i was young i looked forward to doing it with my mom, but the last couple years that i spent at home found my mom doing all the tree decor by herself. By then i had defected over to my dad’s point of view on the whole thing. If mom wants someone to help her in the future they’re going to have to have more children. ;)

    Happy belated Thanksgiving!

    Happy belated Thanksgiving to you too :) I took your advice and posted on the MSCCNC forums. Trying to put together a new logo but it’s slow going…

    What are you up to on Saturday the 10th? I’m thinking about coming back for a weekend to see everybody.

    That would be awesome. Especially in light of it being our last car guys meeting of the year. We’ve got some good stuff planned…but then again (if you’ve been keeping up with all the emails) you must already know about all that… ;)

    Good job with the post. That was very nice of you and i’m sure some of the guys really appreciated it.

    To conclude: awesome light stuff emails post really appreciated it. :)

    Just give me a call. I think we’re planning on being at Joels for most of the day.
