I wish there was something important I could say about the situation in New Orleans right now. And I feel really stupid for posting about this, but...

Captain Commando strikes again.

Link to a small picture from next week's BSG. Not spoilery, unless you're a real phobe. Hiiii there, towel.

[Oh, this song.]

I've been packing, and listening to every album we have on vinyl right now, as this is my last chance to use the record player until December. [Woe.]

Mommac comes into my room, announces that they've declared martial law in New Orleans.

My first thought, I shit you not, my first thought:

"How the hell did Colonel Tigh get to New Orleans?"I've ( Read more... )

- I finally bought Nickel Creek's Why Should The Fire Die? at Borders today while birthday shopping for Sismac. It's on sale for $14.99! Very cool for Nickel Creek. And so far, well, this album is absolutely beautiful.

- Also finally bought Kill Bill Volumes 1 & 2 --for 14.99 each as well-- because I'm tired of waiting for QT's supposed ( Read more... )

Finally saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory tonight, which meant that when hecatehatesthat texted me, flailing, I was not watching BSG as I should have been. When I got home at around 10 PM, however, I thanked the Lords of Kobol that Dadmac is a technophile and we have TiVo.

Tomorrow I'm leaving for Lake Tahoe. Hopefully my computer will be back in my hands, fully restored, by the time I get back. It's been in CompUSA since last...Wednesday? Or whichever day it was when I posted my question about saving Thunderbird emails. By now the lappy's somewhere in Fremont (East Bay Area) where the harddisk is being replaced ( Read more... )

It's almost 24 hours later and still, all I can coherently say about Valley of Darkness is: I am absolutely in love with that song. I need an MP3 of it, badly. I need sheet music for it, badly. I need to listen to it forever and play it forever and good lord, it was just so sad and MOVING, y'know? Back when I studied piano, I would flail over ( Read more... )

Got my copy at around noon yesterday from Amazon. Unfortunately, I left for the beach five minutes later. Then there was a bunch of traffic. Then we ended up picnicking in Endor Samuel P. Taylor Park. Then it was too late to go to the beach. Then we got gelato. Then we came back to my house, swam in the pool, watched N's DVD of Braveheart, ( Read more... )

I was searching for the Gaelic lyrics in Bear McCreary's Wander My Friends (from the Battlestar Galactica Season One soundtrack, in the episode The Hand of God) and I found the English translation for the Italian lyrics in Battlestar Operatica (from Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me DownWoe upon your Cylon heart ( Read more... )
