- The final Third post... I think I'm gonna cry. :(...
- I think Summer has officially hit Southern California and I couldn't be more miserable about it. :P It was sooo fuckin' hot today and the kicker is that it's supposed to be even hotter tomorrow! Ugh. I wanna hibernate till Fall. :P
- I've been a salted peanuts fiend today. I'm sucker for a batch of perfectly roasted salted peanuts. The sad thing is that I have an odd reaction to the salt, if I eat too many I start to feel a bit dizzy and all around fucked up. I think it might have to do with my blood sugar. In any case I'm planning on pigging out on some more later tonight. :P
- Another GQ arrived in the mail today. *sigh* Will I ever catch up? By the way, I'm kinda tripping out on how and where sexuality is found acceptable. Some might say that Gisele Bündchen's July cover is a tad pornographic. Not me, but I thought... interesting. It's so gray in America. *sigh*
- Now that things are coming to end I thought it would be a great time, in the next few days, to watch the final film in my Akira Kurosawa Retrospective, Madadayo. Bittersweet. :D :(
- Hell's Kitchen is almost over. :(
- Battlestar Galactica is on hiatus until Feb. '09!!! At least, that's what I think I heard. Ugh, such a long wait. But damn... that mid-season finale was fucking stellar! :D
- My back's wet! This isn't natural! Curse you Summer! *pumps fist*
- I can't get my wildflowers to live past a certain point in their development. I think it has to do with the way I've potted them. I learned from the first time around that direct sunlight is not the way to go... unless I'm looking for steamed veggies. :P Anyway... it's all a work in progress... I'll get it right eventually.
- Gee... I don't want to post/end this, but I can't think of anything else to say. Oh well.
- Okay.
- Goodnight sailors. ;)
DS333, waving.
- Post 360! Only five posts left!! How many more exclamation points can I use!!!??? :P It's almost over and now the paranoia has set in... I'm convinced there's a meteorite out there somewhere hurtling toward Earth with my name on it. :P
- There are two sketches I absolutely need to get on this blog before the end. I've been spending the past few days working on them, or at least one of them. I'll have one day to complete the other. God I hope I make it. :P
- I haven't been using the pen all that much... my thumb's so sore as a result of all this recent drawing. :(
- The local Jamba Juice has been unusually hot in-store... what's up with that?
- I'm dying for some Strawberry Cake... thankfully I can indulge myself tonight. :D
- Been catching up with my podcasts, as usual. I love media. :D
- Okay, I'm outta here kitties. ;)
DS333, recouping.
- Took the Metro today. I know people hate it but I just looove it. So many interesting people and stories unraveling out there.
- Was in Beverly Hills for a short time. Love seeing tourists snapping photos on Rodeo Drive.
- Caught up with my brother at Westfield Shopping Center, god I love that place.
- Had some Panda Express.
- Can I just say again how much I love free WiFi? I can't wait for a time, a future, in which true ubiquitous WiFi is a reality.
- Went to the FOX Studios lot to catch a free screening of M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening! :D
- It's amazing how difficult it is to find a Starbucks that's open when you really need one.
- Time to wind down I guess. I'm sorta talked out...
- See ya later you Weird Fishes. ;)
DS333, fading.
- Finally got to see Sex And The City: The Movie with my cousin last night.
- It's not until I spend some time with someone who's not totally immersed in tech culture that I realize how obsessed I really am. Maybe I should cool off? Hmmm... ... ... ... Nah! :P
- Apple posted their WWDC '08 keynote as a downloadable podcast... it's a doozy, well over a gigabyte! Haven't watched it but boy am I looking forward to it. :D I gotta make the mood just right... I've a raspberry white chocolate mocha chillin' in the fridge that'll be perfect for the occasion, thank the maker. ;)
- I haven't really made an effort to watch the final two Akira Kurosawa films. I think... I don't want it to end, which is so weird... I love endings, but I guess... sometimes I don't.
- I do think I will get to Rhapsody In August tonight. :D
- Excited about the news/rumor that Nintendo might release a revised version of the Nintendo DS that'll forgo the ability to play Game Boy Advance games to make for a slimmer profile. You can never be too thin. :P ;)
- I need to clean my keyboard... not really exciting news but I just thought I'd throw it out there, it's been well over a week since the last cleaning.
- My brother and sister are gonna get a dog... a puppy actually... I think a toy dog, y'know, a really small dog. For some reason I'm really excited about it. I guess I like the idea of being able to play with it without having to care for it. :P
- Did I mention that I did make some brownies the other night, for the first time? They came out okay... but I didn't have any walnuts on hand, which really rapes. The one thing I truly love about brownies are the walnuts. It's always been a dream of mine to bake 'em myself so that I could go crazy with the amount of walnuts. Guess I got something to look forward to. ;)
- Okay, I think I'm done... Hell's Kitchen is about to begin in 5 minutes. :P
- Later bitches! :P ;)
DS333, feisty.
- 351!!!??? Craziness... only... lemme see... *counts using fingers* carry the one... move the remainder... only 14 blog posts left to go! :P
- No links today... I hate hunting for links. Cutting and pasting is too much of a hassle tonight. :P
- My brother and new sister came over today... did I mention they got married!? (I know I did ;) ) By the way, when I say married and brother & sister I don't want you getting the wrong idea... this is California, not the deep South. :P
- I haven't been walking as much as I used to these past few weeks but I took a nice long one this evening... nice cool breeze. There's nothing quite like a pleasant, leisurely walk. It's very blissful if you manage to have all the stars aligned.
- Had a huge helping of BBQ baby back ribs this afternoon courtesy of my brother. When did he become such a good cook? I think my Sis' rubbin' off on him. Deliciousness. :D Mmmm... *daydreaming*
- I'm gonna have a go at making some brownies. I'm such a fiend for brownies which is love a cousin of mine helped foster, she makes a killer brownie. Though I know she's really old school about the prep... they're practically made from scratch. In the culinary scape, much like the tech scape, I'm a far better consumer than creator. :P So I haven't made any, ever... and it'll be a while before I attempt to make them from scratch so I'm going the Betty Crocker and... Duncan Hines? route first.
- Betty Crocker & Duncan Hines are funny creatures to me... they're very quick and dirty. They're great... very good in my opinion, but there's a difference between quick & dirty and slow & loving. ;) They get the job done but you know it could be better. But like I said, they're good in a pinch. I aspire to become a lover in the kitchen... mainly a baker. I love baked goods... but then, who doesn't?
- I really HATE Google's new favicon. Thought so the day it was unveiled. Why don't they change it!? I haven't heard any love for it. Change is not always a good thing.
- I'm getting a headache... :( I know I shouldn't stare at this monitor any longer but there's no way that's gonna happen. :P
- Apple's WWDC is only... basically a day away (it's on Monday) and I can't wait!!! I've been trying to steer clear of all the rumors about all the possible announcements, I really want the virgin experience. I love not knowing what's to come... though I know in my heart we'll see those new iPhones. Once I see that white one... ah! I can't wait!!! :D
- Last night's episode of Battlestar Galactica may have been the best I've ever seen. So, so, so great! I love when... when you come down to it and year's worth of storytelling layers and builds upon itself to deliver some pretty powerfully poignant moments. I could've died watching that episode. Amazing storytelling. :D
- Okay that's enough... time to indulge my latest obsession: Draw My Thing. :D Wonder how I'll fare with this looming headache. :P
- Fair thee well my friends, have a pleasant journey in your part of the dream sea. ;)
DS333, gambling.
- Had such a great night playing hours and hours of Draw My Thing on I'm In Like With You. That site's all about the games and they recently unveiled some new ones, the highlight being the Pictionary clone, Draw My Thing. I met this one guy who was making me laugh sooo much. It's rare that I find someone online with my exact sense of humor. I only stopped because my gameroom froze... which is a good thing 'cause I had to eat and blog. :P
- I don't really have much else to say... my mind's consumed with one thing. :P
DS333, starving.
- Fuck, only 20 posts left! :O That's wild.
- My brother's wedding went off without a hitch... I have a new sister! :D Well, in my view I always had one but now in the eyes of the United States government it's official. :P It was a really great day... beautiful was the watchword, just everything. It was one of those days. :D
- Decompression day. ;)
- Almost missed Million Dollar Password on CBS. I scheduled it via iCal on my iPod touch almost a month ago but I guess they juggled the times around since then. Pretty awesome show, I'm a sucker for Password/Pyramid.
- 20 posts left and my Ring sketch isn't done yet. Took 'im out to Starbucks today and it's all falling together. :D
- I've a grip of See's candy sticks to devour here.
- Seems like the Wii bug's been spreading. My cousin's Wii died on him... sorta. It'll turn on but it won't read discs... guess it's pretty obvious that it's the disc drive. I'm so glad all is right with the world on this end. :P ;)
- Massive clouds of gnats have been plaguing the neighborhood today... it's insane! I don't know what's up and where they came from. *shivers*
- Did I mention that I think my wildflower might actually survive? I can't be sure... but I think life has found a way. :D
- That's enough, see you kids later. ;)
DS333, signing off.
- Tonight's the night... the Lost season finale!!! :D
- My brother's wedding is in a few days and now I'm worried about things falling into place... there are a few details that need tending to at the last minute. I suppose it wouldn't be my brother's wedding if that wasn't the case. :P
- I need to finish uploading those year-old photos to Flickr by the end of this month. D'oh! :P
- My wildflowers won't grow. :( Perhaps they were offended by my first careless attempt.
- The weather's been beautiful these past few days and the next few look to be just as peachy. :)
- I'd forgotten how awesome the Wii's Internet Channel is. Sadly it can't play Flash video from the TED website. Fortunately it can play video from YouTube which TED posts to as well.
- Laundry day today. I can't remember what doing laundry was like before I owned an iPod... I'm typing up this blog post from the laundromat! :D
- Looking forward to the Sex And The City movie... I'll catch it sometime next week though.
- I just noticed the other day that Dina Lohan has the longest (disproportionately long) arms I've seen on a person. Also, I hate that I know Dina Lohan's name.
- This shirt feels like a blouse... it's like a tent. I knew I should've trusted my ghost when I bought it. I'm a medium guy, but this medium is more like a large. :| O where o where is that small shirt now?
- Another raspberry white chocolate mocha is chilling in the freezer. Life is good. :D
- Time to head out...
DS333, tending.
- It's Memorial Day! What are you doing here at this blog? Git! ;)
- It's a day for many things, blogging is not one of them. Better luck next time. :P
DS333, *nom nom nom*
- Currently making love to the Juno soundtrack. Listened to Cat Power's Sea Of Love cover quite a lot, now I've been ensnared by Barry Louis Polisar's All I Want Is You, it's the first track featured in the film and the first of the soundtrack. Much like the rest of the album it has the feel of a children's tune; quite infectious.
- In a world of Drum, Guitar and Keyboard guys I'd have to call myself a Keyboard guy. Then I might be a Drum dude. It's very rare for me to celebrate my inner Guitar guy. PJ Harvey's the only known soul to really bring him out.
- I'm coming to the end of my Akira Kurosawa retrospective. I watched Dreams (1990) last night which means I've only to watch Rhapsody In August (1991) and Madadayo (1993) and I'll be done. :( A very bittersweet ending. I'm still trying to figure out what will come next. I always thought I would begin the documentary march not long after...
- The week's just about over... and I'm so glad I was able to cope with the loss of Lost and Battlestar Galactica (not to mention Law & Order: SVU, Survivor... and ER). :P Although, maybe that had something to do with having four Kurosawa films, four Harry Potter flicks, the Indiana Jones DVD box set, three episodes of Hell's Kitchen and the usual collection of vidcasts to watch. :P Still, I can't wait till next week! :D
- I don't know if I mentioned on this blog, but my Wii came back to life! :D That last sentence would be much sweeter if I had a history of impotence. :P I love amusing myself. ;)
- Been catching up with The Dawn and Drew Show and episodes 751-758 have been fucking stellar! Just hilarious! *LOL*
- I've been consuming so many raspberry white chocolate mochas from Starbucks it's not even funny! Well, maybe it is. :P Funnier thing is that I might grab another one tonight. O_O I can't stop myself! Help! :P
- Just came back from Starbucks. :|
- See ya later snow bunnies. ;)
DS333, wired.
- Wow, post 333! I feel this one should be really special but I don't know how to make that happen. If I had some nude photos or a raunchy sex tape this would be the time to post 'em. :P More than likely I'm just going to ramble on as usual. ;)
- I had this weird moment when I woke up today. When I awoke my cell phone was in bed with me, placed right above my head. I always place my cell phone near my computer just to the side of the bed. So I had no idea why it was there... I specifically remember putting it away before I fell asleep and I don't remember picking it up. More weird were two missed phone calls from numbers I didn't recognize while I was asleep, minutes apart and one from Louisiana of all places. I must've heard them but didn't answer? I heard them and picked up the phone and... I don't know... it's weird, because if I had actually answered them they wouldn't be "missed calls", so I just grabbed my phone and didn't answer? I have no memory of what happened, none. It was the strangest thing.
- Watched Akira Kurosawa's Ran (1985) early in the morning. :D Sadly the film isn't a Criterion release so the picture quality was somewhat degraded.
- I love watching people run to catch a bus or a train. I'm convinced that it's symbolic of something... I just don't know what. I mean to say that it's a personal meaning of mine, not that these people are acting out something internal... there's something hidden there that tickles me just so.
- I've been having some weird e-mail trouble. There's a problem syncing my desktop app with my IMAP account. I think it has to do with the iPod touch as well... but I can't be sure because that wouldn't make much sense. Anyway, it's just weird... and annoying. I'm having a lot of little problems with tech these days. It's pretty funny, I'm a huge enthusiast with a knack for making things malfunction. It's not that I'm careless with my things, quite the opposite, I've just always had this problem. My money's on a wonky electromagnetic field. :P
- I had a dream about the much rumored/anticipated second generation iPhone. I was holding this thing I'd never seen, pristine and white. It was so beautiful. *loving sigh* June 9th can't come soon enough! :P :D
- It's been a while but I wanted to mention that I was in a glutton's paradise this past weekend. My brother and sister have taken to hosting a family get-together every month to... well... get together. :P My sister's a phenomenal cook and a great host to boot so everyone had a great time chatting it up and gorging ourselves. I'm still having withdrawals. :P
- Later tonight I plan to sow some seeds... and that's not a euphemism. :P I'm gonna play the gardener again and see if I can get it right the second time around. It's been a longtime coming so I thought, why not now? I had actually planned to have had it done earlier in the day so that I could make it a part of this special post but didn't get around to it. Better late than never, right? :P
- Gee, it feels weird ending this post... I feel like there needs to be more. Then again, I don't think there's anything I could do to make it feel right. Maybe it needs to act as a point of inspiration. Maybe... I don't know.
- 32 posts left to go. I better get my ass into gear. I had sorta adopted this plan of doling out one piece of artwork per month; one every 30 days. And there are two that I'm working on that I wanted to make part of this project but that are nowhere near complete. I'm gonna need to race against the clock... well, not really, but I feel weird about wanting to get them out at a specific time... it feels like unnecessarily inducing labor. There are a few posts brewing in this head of mine that have been lingering for a long time as well. They're all gonna need to come out eventually... hopefully sooner rather than later. :P
- Okay, my mind's sparking... I need to use this. ;)
- See ya later cyber kitties.
DS333, meow.
- Early start today; early Saturday mornings are so unnatural. :P
- Spent most of the day with my brother and sister.
- Went to a cake tasting and was lucky enough to see a man-child nutcase tantrum like a baby because of a mistake he made which he desperately tried to blame on the owners. I love out of control people and behavior. :P ;)
- I love free Wi-Fi. :D
- Finally got my grubby mitts on a BrightKite invite! :D While InviteShare turned out to be a bust I still like the idea; nice site.
- Had lunch at one of my mostest favoritest places on Earth: Tito's Tacos! :D
- Went to the Fox Studios lot to catch a screening of Smart People but missed out on it due to a change in plans.
- Very sleepy at this moment.
- Watched a good majority of the Indiana Jones trilogy on the Sci Fi Channel.
- Goodnight. ;)
DS333, (-_-)zzZZZ
- I'm a bit obsessed with Björk's The Modern Things. All the modern things have always existed / They've just been waiting / To come out and multiply and take over / It's their turn now
- I met this really cool guy at Starbucks who was making paper cuts... they were beautiful. Paper cutting is something I've always wanted to dabble in and that encounter tonight was very inspiring. Who knows... maybe someday.
- The next few days are expected to heat up. Joey's not a happy boy. :|
- I've had the urge to watch a ton of movies lately... I think I might get to The Matrix tonight. Or maybe The Lord Of The Rings - The Fellowship Of The Ring (Extended Edition). Then again, I have been meaning to watch The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (the original). *sigh* So many films, not enough time.
- I've a Caramel Macchiato chilling in the freezer. I forgot what they tasted like. I think they fuck me up but I can't remember. Let's hope I'm wrong about that.
- I need to transcode some DVDs for my iPod touch. Seems like a real intensive process for the computer and I figure my Mac's on its last legs so why not throw everything I can at it before it gives out? It always bothered me that the few movies I do have formatted for my iPod are missing their chapter titles. I hate seeing those generic "Chapter 1, Chapter 2, etc." titles.
- I need to upload some files to Pownce... I've been meaning to do so for weeks now. :|
- I want a BrightKite invite but I'm too shy to ask the microblogosphere (yes I just coined that one :P ). I hate all these exclusive beta services. :P
- What else, what else? I've got nothing... but I'm sure to come up with a dozen things I wanted to say after I post this sucker, that's how it always happens. Oh well.
- Goodnight you paper tigers. ;)
DS333, *growl*
- Happy Mommy's Day to all. ;)
- The days I hate the most? The days I have to walk about as a zombie after only clocking in a couple hours of sleep. My eyelids are getting very heavy. My arms feel light and airy. I don't think I can fight this much longer. (-_-)zzZZZ
- Had my first Caramel Frappuccino in a very long while, all thanks to my very generous brother. :D
- Tonight's the big night, the Survivor... season finale and reunion!!! :D
- Okay I can't do this, nappy nap time. :P
- Sweet dreams my fellow zombies. ;)
DS333, the walking dead.
- Wow, post 321... again, I can't believe how close it's getting.
- Today was a heavy consumption day.
- Lost just keeps getting better, as far as I'm concerned there's no such thing as a shitty Locke, Juliet, Ben or Kate episode... Sayid's pretty much a lock too. Tonight's episode got me so excited... I was envisioning the long body of the series and was awed by it's scope. It's such a grand show and it's shaping up perfectly. I can't wait it see what happens next.
- Finished watching ER not too long ago. The season finale is up next week. :( And soon enough it'll be time for the final season ever. Y'know what they say, All good things... (Best title of a series finale episode by the way, courtesy of Star Trek: The Next Generation)
- I laughed sooo much today. I wonder if this is how it feels to be insane. :P
- Watched Survivor: Fans VS Favorites today... by far the best episode to date. I think the season may be the best season ever in fact. I'm endlessly fascinated by human behavior. I'm so in love with Cirie, she's now reached demigod status in my book. ;) She gives a whole new meaning to the term people person.
- Catching up on the final season of Sex And The City. I have a gift certificate to an AMC theatre that I've been holding onto since X-mas. It's very rare for me to go out to the theatre to catch something mainstream, I usually catch indies. So I'd been racking my brain trying to come up with some big blockbuster that I could use the certificate for, a blockbuster I most likely wouldn't be able to wrangle anyone to and I thought Sex And The City: The Movie was the perfect choice. Anyway, at the time the final, sixth season was airing I no longer had access to HBO. :( It's sorta amazing that I haven't gotten around to watching it sooner since it's one of my all-time favorite shows... I just figured I'd own the DVD box set someday, but given that it's so pricey I haven't been able to get my hands on it. So yeah, I couldn't walk into that theatre a practical virgin to the sixth season. I'm seven episodes in and I think I have 13 more to go... I actually had to pull myself away to make this post. :P I'm diving right back in once I finish this sucker. ;)
- Been listening to a lot of Björk's Harm Of Will from her 2001 album, Vespertine. I'm obsessed with the Vespertine Live version at the moment. It's what I consider one of my transcendent tunes. It's the most perfect thing on Earth.
- Okay, I could prattle on and on but I really wanna get back to my media consumption. :P
- Fair thee well my fellow sprites.
DS333, transparent.
- Wow, the titles on these Third posts are kinda freaking me out... it's almost over. :|
- I've been listening to Björk's Hyperballad (- Post (1995)) quite a lot lately. I love the song so much. I think it perfectly embodies what the Buddhists term joyful participation in the sorrows of the world. It's a beautiful blend of light and dark; at once depressing and uplifting. And the music video is one of those rare pieces that mirrors the soul of the source material. Hands down one of Michel Gondry's best videos.
- After listening to John C. Dvorak on No Agenda I've fallen into watching the latest season of the UK version of Kitchen Nightmares, or Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares as it's known across the pond. I've always loved the US version but damn is the UK version so much better. Most importantly it's uncensored. I don't need expletives... I just need honesty. I hate all the hand-holding going on in America, it's really getting bad (actually it's been bad for a very long time but it's getting worse). I hate what passes as natural conversation amongst adults in the media, it's all so fake. We want truth, honesty and authenticity!
- The most depressing thing happened yesterday. My local Starbucks failed me. :( My venti zebra was horribly under par. It was bathwater. It was casual sex in the backseat of a car. It just wasn't what it's always been... which is transcendental. No fireworks last night. :| But I find espressos to be much like pizza in this regard, it's always good on some level... I did drink it after all. *shrug*
- The latest trailers for The Dark Knight and Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull look pretty kick ass. Oh my god, Cate Blanchett and that accent?... that's my undoing... I don't think I've ever been more attracted to a human being in my life! :P :D
- I was enligthened the other day to find out that my favorite TV shows are in fact consultancy shows. There's Kitchen Nightmares, What Not To Wear and Project Runway, all of which are based on experts in their fields judging and mentoring challenged clients. It's only natural I suppose, it's always compelling to watch someone at the top of their game do what they do best. How could I not eat it up?
- Ah! Almost forgot... I'm over the moon about my new favorite iPhone/iPod touch web app for Twitter, Hahlo. The user interface is insane! :D I'm in love. There're a few things that could use some tweaking but overall it's pretty killer. It's good enough that it replaced PocketTweets as my go-to Twitter client on Narcissus (my iPod touch), I think that alone speaks quite highly of the app. Also, sweet logo. ;) I'm a whore for good design. :P
- Okay I need to go and consume some more media, you go do the same. ;)
- Goodnight my fellow digital gluttons. :)
DS333, chomping.
- Laundry day today. It was a nightmare having to suffer these incredibly disobedient children running about. Apparently good parents... scratch that, apparently halfway decent parents are hard to come by these days.
- Battlestar Galactica is two hours away! :D
- I don't know exactly when, but I should be seeing Iron Man sometime this weekend or in the coming week. Super psyched! :D
- This week's episode of Lost was somewhat lackluster but it looks like next week's episode is gonna be killer! :D
- Been working on completing All Star with all characters on Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I'm almost there. I need to complete all those challenges! :P
- This warm weather's making me sleepy. (-_-)zzZZZ
- This is just a nightmare / Soon I'm gonna wake up. I can't get that verse outta my head. It's from 4 Minute Warning by Radiohead on the bonus disc of In Rainbows (2007). By far the best track on the bonus disc. :D
- Heading out kiddos. ;)
- ...Soon we're gonna wake up.
DS333, in dream.
- Finally, a bit of relief from the heat of the Sun. :)
- Just finished watching Law & Order: SVU, perhaps my favorite version of L&O. Nothing strikes a chord with me like salaciousness and sensationalism. :P By the way, Robin Williams' performance on tonight's episode was amazing. He's a real knack for the creepy criminal.
- For whatever reason certain light fixtures in the house aren't working properly. Here's hoping the landlord will get everything in working order tomorrow. Though, this situation has afforded me the opportunity to give my ninja skills a go. Lacking vision you'd be amazed at how many actions you can perform by rote.
- I've said it before recently, but I just have to say again how odd it is that my mind's been flashing the most obscure memories... mostly dreams. Out of nowhere, in the middle of a thought, a memory of a place I've conjured up in dream will take over my mind. The two are totally unrelated, at least to my eye. I always wonder if there is a reason for things like this. A simple series of misfires? Is there an intent? I don't know... I'm just bowled over by the fact that if it wasn't for these misfires these places would be totally forgotten. I'd forgotten these places, these dreams. They were lost, but now found. Maybe these flashes are death throes? One last attempt for them to be heard, to be remembered?
- I finally downloaded, tagged and imported all the Radiohead covers Christopher O'Riley offers on his website. I'm such a nut about proper tags so it took a while to get everything in order, luckily for me his posts are quite detailed. :D Anyway, he's an amazing musician. He's a pianist with a real talent for killer arrangements. I think I'm in love. :P I can't wait to pick up his Radiohead cover albums. I've seen them before but never had the opportunity to sample his work... now I know they're definite must-buys.
- Damn, I know there was more that I wanted to say but I've lost the thread. I hate when this happens.
- I guess I should end it here... since I'm blanking.
- See ya later strangers.
DS333, in dream.
- Bloggy bloggy time. ;)
- The last few posts have been kinda hard for me. I find that this blogging project has really drawn out a manic streak. Some days I'm the most enthusiastic blogger on Earth and other days there's nothing I want to do more than delete every post I've ever written and drive this keyboard through the monitor. :P It's a bit extreme, I know, but it's true. Right now I'm on an upswing, thankfully.
- My brother came over today. We wasted most of the day ragging on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs Of The 80's. I guess you could say I was a child of the 80's since I was born in the decade but it wasn't apart of my teen scene so I never had the opportunity to embrace it fully. I was, of course, aware of most of the tunes but I'd forgotten or just never seen most of their music videos... wild, all of it! :P ;)
- Found a cool show on A&E called Parking Wars. It's basically a reality show that follows the Philadelphia Parking Authority on patrol. Apparently I relish in the sight of cars being ticketed, towed and booted. :P Mostly I just love to see people lose control. You'd be amazed at the indignation of people who are clearly in the wrong. So entertaining. ;)
- While watching VH1 today I found out that they're going to air a Radiohead... not concert exactly, but I guess a music special. I'll have to look it up when I'm done: Radiohead Coming To You From The Basement.
- Happened upon this great little show on the Game Show Network called Chain Reaction that sorta modeled after the Before & After puzzles on Wheel Of Fortune. It's the first time I saw the show but I can already tell I'll try to catch it whenever I can. As a plus, the show's host is pretty hot. :P
- I watched a lot of TV today, which was unusual. It's been a long while since traditional media has managed to wrest my attention from new media, i.e. the Net. Nice change of pace. I missed my old friend. ;)
- So hot today. The bitch is that it's supposed to be even hotter tomorrow. *sigh*
- That's it, I'm out. ;)
- One last thing, men with plastic surgery are the saddest things on Earth.
DS333, cooling.
- Watched all the supplementary material on the No Country For Old Men DVD. I love supplements. :D
- Stopped by the local video store to pick up some DVDs. Rented Hannibal Rising (Unrated), Breach and The Departed. :D
- Finished watching Hannibal Rising, I think I might squeeze in Breach later tonight. :D
- Need to remember to catch the latest South Park at midnight since I missed the 10 p.m. airing.
- Almost caught up with all my Howard Stern material. I'm about a day behind.
- I've been having very vivid dreams about things I can take into this world. Things like numbers, names and words. I had a dream like this last night. I remember reading an entire paragraph, but the words are all lost to me. I've only the first line within my grasp and the memory is very vague. I've a few things from past dreams with me. I wish there were a way to hold onto them longer, long enough for me to transcribe these things. I've the feeling they're of great importance to me.
- Lately I've been consumed with personal blogs and vlogs. Most vlogs via YouTube. I'm amazed at how open some people choose to be online. I always get the feeling that I'm privy to something special. I've the feeling that I'm listening to things meant for other people. The urge to share is there, but people don't direct their thoughts in the right direction.
- I'm especially chatty today... but only in my mind. :P I should head out now.
DS333, consuming.
