"I only want to make you happy..." - Nada Surf

i love the sneaker pimps. they are such a rockin' band. this is my favorite song. i will have you know that first, it is a crappy video. so just listen and don't let your eyes influence your ears. i first discovered them while watching one of my favorite movies - can't hardly wait. seth green did such an amazing job. my life is qualitatively better because of that movie. (new favorite phrase, by the way.)

today i was going to get a snack from the vending machine, which i should mention i just rediscovered - somehow vending machines and i lose contact with each other, but then make a reunion sometimes during the middle of the semester. it's kind of like that boy you always thought you'd date but never do, and then consider it the few times you hang out, here and there. you're not best friends, you're not that interested...so he just gets lost in the mix of things, which is exactly my relationship with vending machines. we like each other, but we're just not committed. so as i was going to get my snack, i was reminded of this story i read on this girl's blog once. she said that for a class assignment she had to do something nice for stranger. she decided she would buy someone a drink from a vending machine. however, she was so nervous about approaching them that she couldn't do it. so, instead she put money in the vending machine and left it, hoping someone would notice there was already money, get excited and buy a drink. she sat across the hall some so she could watch to see who her lucky victim would be. after 3 people not seeing her anonymous gift, she was a little frustrated and was about to take the money back. then, a gentleman came and analyzed the drink machine and the rest of the machines deciding what he wanted. he then pushed the coin return button on all of them and took the change, including hers.

today, there was no change in the machines. i got an Otis Spunkmeyer chocolate muffin. i can't NOT get the spunkmeyer if it's available. it's always moist, and melts in my mouth, and...chocolatety goodness. mmmm. my favorite. :)
