Kate's Point of View

Yesterday I was outside from 10:30 until 7, with the only minor exceptions being for car rides and bathroom breaks. Sunshine makes me happy. I need sunshine to grow.

Last night I was watching the TV show Grey’s Anatomy and this faboo song came on and I thought it was very good so I looked it up online and it turns out it’s a Tegan and Sara song (Where Does The Good Go) so then I got all pumped ‘cus I am going to see them in only a few days.

And then this morning I woke up and for the first time on a work day in a long time I woke up in a good mood. I had music going in the bathroom (as always) and was dancing, yes dancing, while I got ready. I am going on vacation! Soon!

What is it about sunshine and vacations? Why can’t I always be this happy?

I am an openly shallow individual. I have no choice to admit it. I see things and catty thoughts just automatically pop in my head. I try to stop it. I try to be nice. I can’t help it. Certain things though automatically trigger mocking thoughts (and the occasional comment):

• Wearing Eastland shoes with the laces curled like we used to do in grade school
• Wearing black socks with sneakers
• Mall bangs
• Man tank tops
• Quoting lame ass movies

So this last one leads into a question I have. Do you think it is respectable to go around quoting the movie Hope Floats, starring Sandra Bullock? (Admittedly, it also stars Harry Connick, Jr., but that only helps a little.) What if the person quoting it is a normally hip guy? What if the person quoting it is your boyfriend? Should you dump him? Is a passion for watching and memorizing lines from Sandra Bullock movies reason enough to end a relationship?
