I Wish My Life Were A Smashing Pumpkins Video

Last Friday was Free Slurpee Day. Walking towards 7-11 in my work clothes, I found myself wishing that my current life was a little more like the Smashing Pumpkins video for "1979."



More often, though, I wish that life was more like the video for "Today."



Specifically around 1:42. There is something about the gleeful nonchalance on James Iha's face, his dress aflutter in the breeze as he hangs out the door of the ice cream truck, that makes me think, "they just don't make videos like that anymore."
