planes, trains, and automobiles

In the past ten hours I've had to deal with:
-parents who forget how to get the airport
-run ins with former Advanced French 4 classmates
-crowded planes
-overbooked planes
-angry, cursing Jamaicans
-screaming babies
-small children that like to play in airports
-fast food cravings
-discreetly watching Jessica Lange and Jack Nicholson in "The Postman Always Rings Twice" on my laptop while waiting for my flight
-lots and lots of magazines
-free train rides
-an empty apartment
-walking down Lafayette Avenue with a 50lb suitcase
-a pizza delivery boy who didn't accept checks

What a day, what a day. Oh, and this song helped me through it all:


Doesn't this sound like if New Order and My Bloody Valentine had a war off of awesomeness?

    Have you seen the live video of this that was on Pitchfork TV? It's pretty rad.

    i watched it the other day. it would normally sound really silly to be inspired by john hughes films, but no one else has laid claim, so why not?
