Mates Of State

Advance my directive
All the way so I can take it with a smile
And in case you don't back in time
Your orphan-products they might just do the trick
Kori:
I am not your yellow knot
Who falls around on what is found
Jason:
Keep advised of her condition
As for here, things remain remarkably clear
And in case you don't step aside in time
I'd like to try them instead of option ace-square
I've waited many times for this one
You come in two's, you're coming to
Kori:
I am not your yellow knot
Who falls around on what is found
Jason:
Advance my directive
All the way so I can take it with a smile
And in case you don't back in time

And in case you don't step aside in time
I'd like to try them instead of option ace-square
I've waited many times for this one
You come in two's, you're coming to
Buy your own, once in a lifetime
You grow old and then
Hold your own, try not to out-do
You'll grow old and then

the Mates of State show...

well that didn't really go well...

i stayed for two songs and then i left...

they were really lame... i guess i knew that in the back of my head but i thought that i liked them...

the guy singer was looking really dorky with his mouth agape staring at his wife... and the music is really not that good...

and the crowd... i should have know that the audience was going to be mostly 16-18 years old... it made me feel really old...

i put their music on the same lines as Clap Your Hands Say Yeah... both are poppy, indie music...but when i went to see Clap Your Hands I had a lot of fun... and the audience seemed to be older... at least they looked liked 20somethings...

so i left the show... that was the first show I've ever left... the best part was that i live 20 minutes away from the club and the walk home was really nice...

love

i feel better....

i was feeling real grumpy the last few days and all of a sudden i snapped out of it...

not sure why i was so down... i guess partly money reason and my my glasses breaking kind of setting me back...

but tonight was nice... it was one of the first night that i enjoyed being around my new house mates...

i rarely see everyone but tonight we all had dinner together and we were all laughing and acting like a co-op should (like a family)...

i thought that i would never feel that way... but... i just needed to give it some time...

I'm feeling a little out casted by Black Elk... i want to see them more but sometime i don't really feel welcome by them... i know it's all in my head but it's hard to hang out when they live on the other side of town...

and i guess I've been feeling lonely... like i said, this house doesn't really hang out as a house like Black Elk does... so i miss that... and I'm missing the company of a woman... it's been so long since my last relationship (about a year ago) i just can't find anyone that get along with...

but all is well...

i just bought tickets to see the Mates of State show this Sunday!! I'm really geeked about it... i think Kori Gardner and Jason Hammel are the cutest couple ever...

OK... i like to sleep early tonight...

love
kiwi

posting early because i want to finish my packing and take a nap before the Shopping Cart Race Tonight at 12am...

i have to wake 6am the next morning but i can't really let myself pass this by (I've missed it every year because one reason or another)

not sure why i need to write everyday... but i guess i like the routine of it.. .and if i didn't write here i wouldn't be writing anywhere...

but sadly i have nothing to share...

i went to work... work was slow...

i saw Emily today, who had the cool John Waters party and i got to thank her... she was laughing her head off at everything that went down... at the end of the party she was dragging her boyfriend, who was passed out, through the mud pit... she said he woke up while he was in the pit and managed to say... "it's cold"...

hmmm Jason, my house mate is back in town... which is good news because he is such a cool guy and bad because he can be such a predator with the ladies... i hate seeing it sometimes but all the girls stand up for him in the end saying how sensitive and wonderful he is... i just don't understand that... i think jealousy on my part is directing my emotions to dislike his actions... but it's funny because i do love the guy...

oh... I've been daydreaming (well i daydream all the time) and i think I'm going to start writing my ideas on paper... i started to talk about my ideas to Tyler on my way home from work today and he seemed impressed... maybe i can write a story or script out of it... i can get my friends to help me with my writing and ideas... we shall see... maybe before i go to bed I'll start writing things down...

OK... need to go and run and get dinner with P'arry...

love

what Kiwi is listening to right now

"Hoarding It For Home" by Mates Of State

Never seen you run so fast
Never seen you turn in the middle of your laugh
Never once settle down
Everyone settle down
Kori:
Where's my arm?
In this coat of arms it is a black arm
And where's my prize?
This little prize, it is a clear prize
Jason:
I'm watching as the arms lay down
And measuring your prize
And hoarding it for home
Never once settle down
Everyone settle down
Kori:
And when I stand here alone
I know speaking comes easy to you but I choke
And when I stand here alone, I know this
I know that since I'm leaving so soon
I owe what I know

Kori Gardner

Jason:
And yes of course, I told you I felt it
Like the top of the tower and changing the guard
Delta it first and adjust it right later
I would like to extend a conclusion
And yes of course, I told you I felt it
As long as the flasks, they're staged and they're brimmed
State just the facts, and the status you're after
It's just the medicine and our time alone
Is that the same charm from way back when?
Kori:
As you make space on the floor
I form words that fit right next to yours 'cause I know
Jason:
And oh, of course, now I surely felt it
As the top of the tower, it feigns and it swells
Give up the back and expect all that's coming
It's just the medicine and our time alone
That's the same charm from way back when
And when I stand here alone
Whatever it takes, I will supply you
Thank God, these times are gone and behind us
I know
Boom
