Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Pandora rules! You gotta have a heavy hand with the thumb's down, though.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It is a strange and unsettling place. I haven't needed a return visit.

Hee! Once may indeed be enough. I am going to eat in the restaurant shaped like a hat! Maybe twice!

One thing about the job that's nice is I'll have time on my hands to practice my bass, write, and look for voiceover work (there is a fair amount in Orlando between video game companies and the mouse) AND it puts my depressive ass on a schedule (since R has to eat at certain times). I might even develop some ::gasp:: discpline.

Weird, huh?

Because books.

That's a good idea, Daisy. Thanks! I like The Pierces.

ita, I thumbs down songs all the time, but then I get bored and irritated that it's not Magically Reading My Mind and turn it off. I am not the most patient person on the planet.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

mac just started being a giant twit while we were out at one of the last sales we planned to hit, so I ordered him into the car and I hightailed it back home with the radio blasting on MY station and not a word to him. He has no idea how much we have all been accommodating him and curbing all of our own wishes, so he can just entertain himself a bit for the next few hours. I am going to get lunch and the rest of my work hours in and then we are running the errands I need to do. He can suck it up.

One of my old friends posted this on Facebook yesterday:

[Name] has a boyfriend who wonders whether it's really necessary to have one Pandora station entitled "Nick Cave radio" and another entitled "Leonard Cohen radio". Of course it's necessary!

I have an old school soul station that keeps drifting off towards giving me Jason Mraz or somesuch modern white boy I've never heard of. I thumbs-down, and we're back to Otis Redding.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, yes, lots of ~ma for Betsy, erika.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Pandora rules! You gotta have a heavy hand with the thumb's down, though.

I finally had to destroy the Goo Goo Dolls because even though I don't particularly dislike them, I never actually want to listen to them.

I just have one station that has all my music on it, which confuses the crap out of Pandora, I'm sure. I've just gone from Kill Hannah to the Eames Era to Crystal Method to Coldplay to Tegan and Sara.

What are people doing this weekend?

Haircut today! (Work at home Fridays are amazingly useful.) Then going dancing tonight with the StuntHusband. Saturday is seeing my parents and running some errands with them, and then writing, writing, and more writing, with a break to take photos of the clothes for the closet culling sale.

Our alarm clock is set to KEXP. I frequently don't register it when it goes off. If I had my way, I'd have an iPod dock alarm clock, and it would play the MCR cover of "Astro Zombies" every morning. Pete does not agree with this plan.
