if you stop dreaming, you're just sleeping
You guys!! I saw so many movies this weekend. Saturday was Catfish (which was good, but I think presented a little misleadingly, and that’s all I’ll say about that, because everyone who says you want to see it without knowing anything about it? is totally right.), and Let Me In. Which also falls within the good-but-not-great realm for me. It was ( Read more... ) -

Yikes, you guys.. Is it Friday already? Because Monday was almost yesterday.. This week went by soooo quickly!

look at the limes, how they float..
Since I'm already 100% behind on my NaNo project, I decided that clearly, the absolute best use of my time this afternoon would be doing this music meme again. Stolen from dictums, et al, here it is ( Read more... ) -
it kicks like a sleep twitch
++ New Editors. One review of the new album said it was a "raw, more stripped down sound." Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I call bullshit. The album is synth-y, wall-of-sound goodness from start to finish. Love it. LOVE. And "Papillon" is totes the best one. And the video is perfect for it. (Also found a Tïesto remix when I was ( Read more... ) -
