If music is my lover, you are just a tease // You make love to a shadow, whose face is hollow money

So the new U2 is upon us ! (or myself I should say since my theory that not only does nobody like U2 but everyone dislikes them goes relatively unchallenged) It was weird, I haven't taken to it much, I ceremoniously listened to it once through Tue. night and halfway through the next day and it made me want to listen to 'Pop' and 'Acutung Baby' like crazy, it takes me awhile to get attached sometimes/to brush aside what I think an album is going to be like before I hear it. It snowed yesterday!! That's where it's at. I woke up yesterday and lo and behold we had a light sheet of it on the ground and in the trees and it kept lightly falling all day long. Drove to OCC Highland Lakes and did some schoolwork, listened to 'Pop' mostly, talked to Shannon before class some, she gave me back my Nellie McKay cds, she said they were "nice" as I said no problem about borrowing them since I knew the new U2 was coming out, to which an unknown student remarked how much he disliked them (I almost told him to take a number...ha) I don't think music is very important to her. It feels like we are at a plateau right now, like not going up or down very much, I don't know (subconscious fears of what will happen when class is done creeping in?). Went with Raj to meet up with Isaacs, Higgy, Meghan and etc. at 'The Shark's Club' last night and was told straight up that "I shouldn't bother even waiting in line, we're not going to let you in, you are not up to dress code" I wore it as a badge of honour as Raj and I went back to the Rajala manor with the Dustin and Misty and chewed the fat. Thanksgiving is so funnnny. Like you know when everyone gets in there, the fuse it lit. It's all a matter of time. Met the newest member of the extended fam, little cuz Lincoln Abraham (That's awesome), my Aunt's 7th child (4th adopted), and he is a 3 week old champ. Welcome to the asylum little man :-). Most Valuable Quote of the dinner goes like this:

Grandma(whispered): "Courtney, call John in here, Kim is really bothering him."
Courtney/Doshi(to me, minutes after she pulls him out of harm's way): "Grandma said she was embarrassed about saying that you Mother is irritating people loud enough for you to hear."
Justin/Dussi: "Ha, just making herself at home."

Well I'm going to have some fun with my 2 new friends, the theorems of absolute value and perpendicular vectors, ciao.
