J. Thaddeus Toad Esquire. Have you ever met him?

A few weeks ago, Brigitte informed me that Rivers Cuomo took a playwriting class here at USC. For those of you who don't know, Rivers is the singer for the band Weezer and I love him. Whenever we go to Ozma or various concerts, we always keep an eye out for him and since finding out that he actually comes to the campus regularly, Brigitte and I decided that we should stalk him. She sent me this conversation that she had with Andy Botros the other day with ideas on how to do that and I think they're great and totally fool proof. Here's that conversation:

ArAbCameLJocKey (10:14:47 PM): okay
ArAbCameLJocKey (10:14:48 PM): i got it
ArAbCameLJocKey (10:14:53 PM): we'll get a huge box to trap him in ArAbCameLJocKey (10:14:58 PM): and we'll put out milk and cheese pizza
ArAbCameLJocKey (10:15:01 PM): and a kiss shirt
ArAbCameLJocKey (10:15:12 PM): and a fender double fat strat
ArAbCameLJocKey (10:15:16 PM): he'll be helpless

Hmmm, wonder if my brother will let me borrow his guitar for that... Anyway, my weekend has been pretty nice so far. I have work that I'm procrastinating on, and I have a feeling it's going to kick my ass soon. Lots and lots and lots of drawing work due on Thursday. Yesterday I had to take care of a bunch of financial aid crap. It's about that time of year again that I've got to worry about next year's financial aid package. I applied for an art scholarship and hopefully now that my brother's graduating and going to college, they'll give me more aid. USC is a stingy bastard. After all the boring financial aid meetings I sat through, I went to Figueroa and discovered an outstanding new boba place. I had a vanilla milk tea boba. Mmmmmm. I wonder if I could start a boba diet, where I all I eat is boba.

Last night, Kasia and I watched Sleepy Hollow because she had never seen it, but afterwards I decided I needed to watch something happy or funny before I could fall asleep, because I didn't want to dream about my head being chopped off by Christopher Walken. No weird dreams to report thankfully. Graham Crackers brought over this music video dvd for stuff directed by Michel Gondry. Oh man, they were amazing and all very strange and trippy! He directed Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and on this dvd were a bunch of Bjork videos and White Stripes videos I had never seen before. He has a really edgy style. One video, the "Around the World" video, had these mummys, skeletons, space men, and swimmers doing a dance. Reminded me of thriller, which makes me want to learn the thriller dance even more. It doesn't necessarily have to be that dance, but I want to learn a dance with a bunch of people and then have everyone randomly burst into the dance at a party or something...someday before I die.

I've narrowed down the hair color choices to two. It's either going to be After Midnight Blue which is kind of a dark blue, or Royal Plum which is purple. Any suggestions? I'm gonna get screwed if I have to go for a job interview, but oh well.
