Current Music: The Ataris - So Long, Astoria
Current Mood: meh
Sitting at work again... not much happening.

Took a physics test today... did okay on it.. not great... Only 6 days of classes left.

Today (errr Yesterday... the 5th anyways) was Gary's Birthday. We were watching The Goonies, and I realized that "So Long, Astoria" is about that movie... it was an interesting process of connecting the two. It started when they mentioned Astoria, and then it showed a town sign saying they are in Astoria, Oregon. At that point I kind of thought, "huh, tehere's a song about Astoria." Then later, when they get to the bottom of the wishing well and the kid has his spiel about wishes he says, ".... This is my wish... and I'm taking it back... I'm taking them all back..." and my brain went, "PING!" I know those words from somewhere... Astoria... "taking them all back..." A-Hah! It's the last line from "So Long, Astoria" And then I started thinking about the song.. they talk about pirate ships, buried treasure, adventure, treasure maps... and how it's about the memories made, and not the money, that's important...

So that's my epiphany for the day... I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. cool eh?
