I know I haven't been online much - I've been kind of busy lately. I haven't even had time to make the bases for my rock music icon set in cartoon form! Roger is still bald! So, anyway, sorry if I missed anything important and please point me at it if I did. Hopefully I'll be online more in the new year!

Anyway, here is something fun my mother found ( Read more... )

I hate to get my hopes up and everything...but I was just LJ crusing (instead of doing my homework, ehehehe) and I found this ( Read more... )

On Friday night I went to a pink Floyd laser show. With my parents. Because I'm awesome like that ( Read more... )

Yesterday, I saw something truly terrifying. They came in a pair; double the terror. They were a horrible shade of slime-ish green, and their skin was thick and rubbery, with odd defects all about. They were each only about 15 cm long and maybe a little less than that in height. I shall have nightmares about them for as long as I live. They were... ( Read more... )

Well, I got facebook because I'm bored (which is code for "because I should be working on my creative writing journal), but I don't understand it...I hate all these damned new-fangled stupid never-leave-your-home-again internet things, i hate them! ... Someone wanna explain it to me, though, so I can at least know what I'm doing...and why ( Read more... )

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ME!!!!!!!!!! Yay, officially 18 and a real person! Old enough to drink (even though I've never adjusted to the taste and can only handle some wines...) Old enough to vote (even though our next election is municipal and I don't know anything about municipal politics)...wow, not really that exciting, eh ( Read more... )

I got a new mp3 player!  Whee!  It's 8 GB, where my old one was four, plus there is a slot for an additional memory card. I shouldn't have to worry about utilizing that for a while, though; I've got three GB left. So yeah, yesterday I discovered that the average non-double, non-greatest-hits album takes about 50 MB of space...except for Amused to ( Read more... )

The Walter Trout CD we ordered from Amazon finally came today!  Now, let me explain.  My father and I are very fussy and also, consequently, very unlikely to buy new CDS from musicians we aren't famillier with.  And then, one fine day, we heard this fellow called Walter Trout on the blues music station on TV.  Now, blues, as a genre, seems to be in ( Read more... )

Happy International Day Of Peace, everyone!  And remember, the only good thing war ever did was give us some really awesome folk/rock songs!*

(Here's one of them: Country Joe and the Fish - I Feel Like I'm Fixing To Die Rag on Youtube (sad thing is, this is still essentially relevant, only "the middle east" doesn't rhyme...)

I seem to go through very intense cycles of deranged optimism and merciless pessimism these days.

One minute I'll be thinking things just can't last the way they are; that sooner or later things have to break down, people have to rebel.  Periods of extreme conventionality do tend to precede periods of social revolution, after all.  And I get into ( Read more... )
