I'm really digging Uffie right now.
She’s best to listen to while driving at night.
thoughts
DMV cameras: wouldn’t it be nice if, for every yellow light you stopped at, the DMV sent you the picture of you being a good citizen… and a coupon for $20 off your next ticket? (Islebehere) Awesome idea!

“…I am being defined by my haircut.”
– Mareen I feel similarly about my hair stlye. Perhaps a lot of people do?
“I don’t understand; so this guy has never met Jakob, but he knows all this...”
– A vimeo user commenting on Julia Allison’s clip of a guy doing an impression of Jakob Lodwick, who he’s never met. Behold the power of Vimeo, lady. It’s not weird, it’s amazing. p.s. It wasn’t really an impression. It was a list of things about Jake recited in a silly...
“It’s hot.”

What a great photo!
WatchIt’s me, AA, in HD, on Vimeo… if I uploaded correctly.
recommendation
After seeing Jakob Lodwick’s opinions on art. I feel confident he would love “The Open Boat,” a short story by Stephen Crane. For double plus good credit, read “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” by Ambrose Bierce.
WatchThis was fun to piece together. I put about five different songs to it, and each one worked in a different way. “Soul Kitchen” by The Doors as my favorite.
I wonder what would happen if I suddenly just started eating a lot of nuts, berries, and meat. (I expect Nick Gray will know!)

AA dream
I had a dream last night that someone uploaded a video that parodied me. Watching it in the dream was embarrassing, but kind of flattering, too.
Whoever made it focused on the way I talk, dance, and scream a lot. They quoted my tumblr description a few times. I remember thinking, it wasn’t exactly right, but they made a pretty good attempt.
Detailed Descriptions while driving from Andrea...
If you have my number and you’d like a detailed description of the scenery whenever I am driving, (you’ll know because I’ll post a picture like the one below) feel free to call. If you don’t have my number, but would like to, send me an email. I’m friendly and have a soothing phone voice.

Memory Marker
At this point in my life, I rarely see eye-to-eye with elementary education majors.
“You know how sad it is when something dies but then, like a year later...”

I’ve had a few really satisfying, no-snot sneezes this morning. Love those.

Where I once had a reservation telling people that I had friends that I only know through the Internet or Vimeo, after tonight I will no longer second guess the validity of using the word “friend.” I talked with Nick Gray on the phone tonight. It wasn’t weird, or strange, or forced. It wasn’t any of those things because we already know each other through our videos and...
Today I’m writing in cursive. It’s sort of a relief to see real cursive every once in a while.

– SteveR She’s going to be out of control for a day or two, then she will post sporadically every few weeks, then months. Then she’ll find tumblr and start a goddamn blog.
make it more awkward
My friend Miller wrote about some minor awkward moments he’s experienced. I used to feel and do the same things he describes in his post — Aaron and I aren’t the kind of friends that would see each other from a distance and start acting silly, and we were both waiting by ourselves, so we both pretended to have no idea the other was waiting to cross the street and distracted...
Vimeo Meetup Thought
If Andrea Allen and her beau Carl ever get married, we could probably have a pretty sweet Vimeo user party in Kansas. Hopefully I am not jumping the shark on this. DON’T TEMPT ME LIKE THIS!
