I think I'm turning into a teenage girl. I just bought a magenta rubber "case" for my iPhone, and I made my own ringtone out of the first 20 seconds of
Blister in the Sun. Or it's a midlife crisis, and I should just go buy the damned Mini Cooper, right?
Mini-Cooper! Mini-Cooper! And how did you get that bug on your header? I am fascinated by it.
ReplyDeleteMini Cooper... Except don't forget, says this forty-year-old neurotic gal, it's a death trap.
ReplyDeleteHow about something a bit SAFER for your midlife crisis?
Heh.
OMG. I almost knocked my screen off the table trying to smash the bug! Maybe I need new glasses.
ReplyDeleteI love mini coopers....
ReplyDeletethat bug thing is freaking me out.
ReplyDeleteI have a pink case for my ipod and now that I've read this I'm thinking I should go download Blister in the Sun.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that bug is freaking me out too ;)
The husband has a mini-cooper. Yellow. With a red interior. Who's having a midlife crisis now? They are a lot of fun to drive, but they're no good for long rides, because you feel every crack in the road. Also-- despite their smallness, they are actually safer than many full-size vehicles. They are a BMW, after all.
ReplyDeleteGlad you love the femmes, too. Though I am more of a Kiss Off fan, myself.
I love that song.
ReplyDeleteAs for the Mini Cooper...screw that, get yourself a Porsche Boxter. Anything rag top, for a mid life crisis. That's what I'm sticking with!
I love Blister in the Sun.
ReplyDeleteI also really like that little bug! Very cool.
I LOVE that song. Buy whatever the hell you want.
ReplyDeleteDid you get on the floor during the quiet part of Blister in the Sun?
ReplyDeleteThat song reminds me of college. Well, a drunken summer between semesters anyway.
Get the Mini! Get the Mini! Would you believe that we have 2 of them? I fell in love with the original Austin Minis when I was a kid, and couldn't resist for long when the new versions were offered in the US. Then John kept borrowing my car, because it was so much fun to drive, and we ended up trading in his truck and getting him one, too. We should have parted with one of them when we got our more child-seat-compatible Subaru, but I couldn't bear to part with mine for the trade-in price that was offered. My intention was to sell it myself, but well, I haven't actually put a lot of efforts in that direction. (I love my Mini. I've never felt this way about a car before.)
ReplyDeleteOh, and good choice on the ring tone. The Femmes rock. (And Phoebe thinks so too.)
Um, not teenage girl, just showing your age.
ReplyDeleteMost people I know that have that as a ringtone are over 35....
Just sayin'
But an iphone????? OMG I am so jealous!!!! They are not even available here in Oz yet. And pink covers rock.
Go for the Mini.
ReplyDeleteGet the Mini so I can live vicariously thru you, k? (I covet a soft top jeep. It's gonna be mine when I turn 40, I just know it).
ReplyDeleteAnd an Iphone? Me and my Blackberry are jealous.
Get the Minim and then get in it and drive my way. Play whatever music you want on the way. :)
ReplyDeleteAn iphone, a case, cool ringtones, and a mini-cooper. You aren't a kid, you're the coolest blogger I know.
ReplyDeleteI'm soooo jealous.
As long as it's a convertible one! (And you come pick me up!)
ReplyDeletelove the mini.
ReplyDeletejust can't figure out how to squeeze two adults and two car seats into that fab mobile.
That bug is awesome. As are the Violent Femmes.
ReplyDeleteI probably just dated myself by using the word "awesome," huh?
Ah, Blister in the Sun. I can't count how many evenings I spent dancing to that one while mildly blitzed out of my mind.
ReplyDeleteAnd I vote for the Mini-Cooper! Love those cars.
-andi
Now I want a "Blister in the Sun" ringtone too! (Apparently midlife is contagious.)
ReplyDeleteI could go for some Blister in the Sun right now.
