The latest (highlights) from VEE@wordpress:
Jen / Squirrel Nut Zippers
28th March 2006
Jennifer Saunders is the best organism to ever have existed.
Me: If she has to be married to someone who's not me, I guess it should be Ade.
Amber: You approve.
Me: I do.
Amber: But she'll leave him for you.
Me: Oh, no, I wouldn't want that. I'll just be her mistress.
Amber: We'll see her once in a while walking down the streets of Yellow Springs…
Me: Her hideaway vacation spot. My house. Well, my bedroom.

I've recently rediscovered the Squirrel Nut Zippers. The fusion of the old with the new is a wonderfully obscure art form that allows a reverence for the past without a nostalgia for something we can never have.

Comedy as salvation
28th March 2006
Last night, after French & Saunders' 2002 Christmas Special blew me away (literally-I was in pieces on the other side of the room), I took a shower and laughed at the memory of what I'd just experienced while the hot water assaulted my skin. I'd been really tired and stressed out, but now I laughed in the shower and was suddenly elevated.
Comedy is my salvation and has been since I discovered it as something I love and need and care for above all else when I was 17. It gives me hope, because no matter how bad things get, no matter how stressed out I get, no matter how I feel, no matter anything, life will always be beautiful because there will always be comedy, I will always be blown away, there will always be something to love.
