yesterday was a weird day. i was feeling a little down in the dumps. just kinda lonely and a little moody.
so i went to target! i picked up the new regina spektor album - far. it was on sale for less than $10! i'm pretty sure this is the first physical copy of an album i've bought in yearrrs. so far, my favorite song is folding chair. i love the line that says, "i've got a perfect body 'cause my eyelashes catch my sweat." what's your favorite on the album?
i also bought a jigsaw puzzle. that's right - i'm the nerd who does puzzles by herself when she's bored.
turns out levi is a total nerd too because he would NOT get off my puzzle when he came home. we were up 'til two in the morning working on that thing. and then he was up again this morning working on it! he's trying to steal it from me! anyway, it was really nice spending some time with him working on the puzzle, listening to music, staying up late, and talking. i'm feeling much better now!
p.s. i'm posting this from my phone...hopefully, it doesn't look weird.

hello!
ReplyDeletethank you for your comment. it was very thoughtful, considering, you know, that graduation was probably the biggest event, ever, in my 18 years (besides this past monday's senior citizen beach blanket bingo, and the midnight madness of the last harry potter book, both momentous events).
but, the point is, thank you. you're very nice and i do very much enjoy your blog. also, i agree with your thoughts on regina's far. she slash, it is fantastic. my favorite song is two birds.
peace,
mattbarry
It doesn't look weird and I'm terribly glad you're feeling better.
ReplyDeleteYou showed those yuckies!

ReplyDeletelove love love puzzles!! im kind of an addict and wont do puzzles under 750 anymore because theyre just too easy. i bought two puzzles last week and im pretty obsessive about it as well.
ReplyDeleteoh girl...i love to do puzzles!! and yes, downloaded that cd today and i think that song is my favorite so far too. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE puzzles! I don't have the space to set one up now *sigh* but they are so therapeutic and pleasant. Definitely a mood lifter :)
ReplyDeleteHide a piece so you can make sure even if he does most of it you will at least get the last piece :)
ReplyDeleteI totally do puzzles by myself all the time :)

ReplyDeleteyes i doooooo! i doooooooo doooooooooooooo.
Glad you're in better spirits!
ReplyDeleteAnd I <3 puzzles too.
Oh my gosh, I'm going to Target right now!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love Regina. I haven't gotten the album yet but I love "laughing with."
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you how much I love puzzles too. Kevin instituted a rule that we can't look at the picture before or while we're doing the puzzle. This way it lasts us a week or so. :)
Isn't it wonderful when bad moods disappear?! It's sometimes just the smallest things that do the trick! Yay for feeling better!
ReplyDeletedownloading the album from itunes right now. wow, puzzles, that is something I havent thought about in years, which is a shame, b/c they are so fun.
ReplyDeletesounds like so much fun. I have some extra time since school is out and a puzzle sounds great. Target, here I come!
ReplyDeleteNot really the puzzle type BUT oh I do love me some Regina. I've been flipping out over the new album coming. Favorites........I have quite a bit so I'll just name a few: Apres Moi (always what I start with), Flyin, The Flowers, Wasteside, Musicbox (my 2 girls' fave), Love Affair, Better (my song for my little sis - xoxo), Lacrimosa, andandandand...I could go on for days about this chick! She's beautiful, incredibly sweet & down-to-earth, talented, wellspoken. Hell, what's not to love?
ReplyDeleteMy little family and I do jigsaw puzzles every Thanksgiving as well as Christmas. I should talk them into doing one just for the heck of it.
ReplyDeleteCheer up wee lass.
Puzzles and music would be the perfect cure for getting you out of a case of the 'down in the dumps' day. xo
ReplyDelete(Hope the rest of your week gets better and better.)
Hi Jasmine! I just have to say that I watched Elizabethtown today after your suggestion and absolutely loved it. Thanks again for mentioning it!
ReplyDeleteI also got caught up on your blog and loved every minute of it. You and Levi are the cutest ever. Seriously. Congratulations on the job and the apartment, everything looks great. Here's to continued success!
Check out Grizzly Bear- Vekatimest, it's amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a good way to clear up a bad day! Sometimes spontaneous late night alone time is the best.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite on the album is Human of the Year because it sounds exactly like the live recording. I'm emailing you as soon as I have longer than a few minutes on my computer!
hehe puzzle thief!
ReplyDeletehow cute ^_^
I love Regina, but, I have yet to get her new album. I must I must I must soon! It's wonderful that you are a puzzle nerd and that you are taking art history classes and french and dance... I love it. I wish I could be as motivated. I have a motivation problem :(
ReplyDeleteYour banner is adorable! Is it new or have I just not noticed it before??
ReplyDeleteAlso, my mom, my sister, and my sister's boyfriend, and I have done at least 10 puzzles so far this summer. It's one of our favorite summer pasttimes.. along with Rummikub!!
Glad to hear you are feeling better after some good ol' lovin! Do take a picture of the jigsaw you are doing when you're done:) I think my favourite album is the Finding Neverland OST. It's magical. And it never fails to put me in such a relaxed mood.
ReplyDeleteOKAY. I am crazy when it comes to puzzles. You should see the number of framed ones I've done that's in the store room, gathering dust. They are soo soo fun though! I could finish up a 2000 piece one in a day because it's soo soo addictive (: xx
ReplyDeleteLOVE the new album! So much so that I can't even pick a favorite yet.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear your feeling better.
We all have those days.
Oh and you've really made me want to go out and get a puzzle...sounds fun.
Oh, sounds like the perfect pick-me-up. I could use a trip to target right about now. I always get an I-Cee and aimlessly browse the aisles.
ReplyDeletetarget is my refuge and one of my most favorite places ever. i love to get salty popcorn and an icee while i stroll the isles.
ReplyDeletei should do more jigsaw puzzles, you have inspired me! :)
ReplyDeletex
Wow everyone loves that song. I love how you said you were feeling down so you went to Target. Totally something I would have done. In fact I did it a while ago. I was feeling an anxiety attack coming on so I decided to drive to Target. I bought a couple things and presto, I was feeling literally like 90% better. I love Target.
ReplyDeletewe take our puzzles and put this craft glue over it, let it dry and hang it as art. we have a bunch of the andy warhol puzzles in our hallway.
ReplyDeletei have yet to buy the regina album but i heard great stuff about it !
