I Want to Jump In and See What That Big Oceans Got
This is the good stuff post. :)
GOOD STUFFS:
1) Strict Joy by The Swell Season:
My lord, I got the deluxe edition with all sorts of deeply lovely live performances and Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova goodness! Last night me and my music spent some quiet time with my lights off in my room. The words are beautiful, Glen Hansard tells wonderful stories (the one about "Drown Out" both frightened me and made me think by turns), and anything that includes the lines, "I'd like to thank the eighth grade choir...they're fucking brilliant." Although, admittedly, the teacher in me cringed at that...
2) Doctor Who: State of Decay Extras:
The story was camp entertainment without the characteristic science gobbledegook of the Christopher Bidmead script era that I...well, I detest it and think someone should have edited the script editor. BUT THE EXTRAS! There was one on vampire fiction with the most eccentric group of academics I have ever seen. Also one on uses and cultural understandings of blood - which was hilarious and wtf all at the same time. The butcher and his random aside comments and goth club promoter are hilarious.
3) Halloween:
I need to put picture up sometime. I went as the 12th Doctor. :) Went to see Paranormal Activity the day before and that was...not as good as I thought it would be. Honestly, I'm deeply hard to scare (the only movie that genuinely freaks me out is the ooooold black and white "The Haunting"). My friends and I had a good laugh about how we had spent an absurd amount of money to watch doors open and close.
4) Singing!
Somehow someone made me join a music club. Mostly so I'll sing. Maybe I can finally achieve my dream of Christmas caroling with four part harmony (ironic statement considering the following).
ONE NOT HAPPY:
WHY IS CHRISTMAS BEGINNING BEFORE THANKSGIVING? WHAT HAPPENED TO MY BUFFER HOLIDAY!
