Heart Skipped a Beat

One of my favorite things a person can do to me is ditch me when we've made plans.  I absolutely adore it.  The sentence "My friend here is more important to hang out with than you" really warms my heart.  It sends me shivers when I get a facebook message explaining why they're incapable of spending the day with me.  Another one of my favorite things in the world?  Excuses.  Excuses are just beautiful, so beautiful.  It doesn't matter to me if the excuse is completely and one hundred percent unbelievable, I still love it with every inch of my body and mind.  For real.

Urgh, okay.  I needed to get that out of my system.  If you haven't noticed, I'm not exactly being perfectly honest in the above paragraph.  A buddy of mine told me that he was going to come swimming with me today, and that he would call me at 11AM for the plans.  Well, two hours after 11, I finally got around to checking my facebook.  Guess he sent me a message about how he's too busy with some chick he "apparently" made plans with.  He had no idea.  She just showed up.  ALSO, it's apparent that he was going to make up some excuse anyway.  Oh well, I guess I deserved it for some reason?  Perhaps that's it. 

Now that my complaining is over, I can really address an important part of my day.  I discovered an amazing remix of a song.  It's a great version of Florence and the Machine's You Got the Love.  This remix is done by a band I'm  obsessed with called The xx.  I really think they should be more popular than what they are. 

It's hard for me to finish a blog post.  I've thought up of nearly a dozen of them in my head, and none of them seem to work right.  I guess I'll leave you with some great lyrics by The xx. This song is called Heart Skipped a Beat.

Please don't say we're done / when i'm not finished / i could give you so much / make you feel, like never before / welcome, they said welcome to the floor / it's been a while / and you've found someone better / but ive been waiting too long to give this up / the more i see, i understand / but sometimes i still need you / sometimes i still need youx2 / i was struggling to get in / left waiting outside your door / i was sure / you'd give me more / no need to come to me / when i can make it all the way to you / you made it clear / you weren't near / near enough to me / heart skipped a beat / and when i caught it you were out of reach / but im sure, im sure / you've heard it before.
