Beat the Heat

It’s now full on, hardcore July in Eugene and I am sweating like mad and hiding in my little studio apartment drinking a lot of drinks with ice in them. To quote Hunter S. Thompson “My blood is too thick for this weather … I’ve never been able to properly explain myself.” Also I’ve become a bit of an occassional blogger, which kinda pisses me off because i despise those people. One of the best things about working for the Emerald during the summer is how chill it is – I know that as soon as fall rolls around it’s going to be balls to the wall work so I’ve been taking it easy and working on my book.

Also the band The Cure has been popping up like crazy recently. I just noticed this when I was back home and Live105 (the rock radio station in the Bay Area) was doing promos for an all-Cure weekend. While I am totally cool with this (it’s the Cure, comm’on! Who doesn’t have a little goth in them?) I also find it kinda weird. There’s also some band that on MTV doing a cover (not the best cover either) of “Just Like Heaven.” The 80’s Redux!
