  • Falling in love

    Wen grinned and I felt a warm glow and an odd dizzy sensation. And then I remembered something my dad once wrote me about falling in love. He said the phrase was apt because falling is exactly what it can feel like, as if you’ve finally allowed yourself to let go of some safety bar you didn’t even know you were clinging to, and suddenly you find yourself tumbling towards the exciting unknown.
    — “Lemonade Mouth” (Mark Peter Hughes)

  • Milky the milk carton extraordinaire

    For anyone who's ever seen the Coffee & TV music video, you know who I'm talking about.  The rest of you, follow along.

    Coffee & TV is a song by Blur.  In the video, Graham the guitarist has run away from home to play in the band and his family is saddened by his absence.  A milk carton named Milky springs to life to try and cheer them up, but when he realizes that his efforts are going unnoticed, he decides to go look for Graham himself.  He roughs it out in the world, avoiding being stepped on and even gapes in horror as he sees someone drinking milk from a carton and scurries off before someone thirsty notices him.  Eventually he finds Graham and when Graham sees his face printed on Milky's side as a missing person, he goes home.  Right before he steps through the door, he drinks the milk from Milky's carton, tosses the carton in a garbage can, and walks inside.  Milky sees his plan succeed and dies.  Then we see him get his wings and the video ends with him ascending to dairy heaven.

    Watch the video here.  Go on, watch it.

    Okay, so how cute is Milky?  Honestly, I love the way he walks and ahh, just a brilliant character.  So I went searching for a Milky avatar when I came across this:



    So I decided to give it a go.  Here's my very own Milky:



    I haven't loved a fictional character this much in a while.  Must make the love interest soon!
