The new Grinderman album (Grinderman 2) was released today! Pick up a copy and enjoy some amazing music by a group of guys who continually prove that they are still way ahead of the game. Check out their MySpace page to listen to the album for free. I cannot wait to see them in San Diego.
Why must I continually fail to save a story/paper after I have been working on it for more than an hour? I'm trying to go back through this short story and get it to where it was but it's not happening. It just seems lacking now. Is there any way I can get Microsoft Word to automatically save my progress as a backup file every ten minutes or so? That would be pretty amazing.
On a different note that doesn't make me want to weep...for my friend's sister's 21st Birthday I shall be dressing as Garth Algar from Wayne's World. She's celebrating her Birthday over three days and the first day consists of a costume party. What better costume than Garth?
So far I have myself the glasses and a wig. Sadly, the wig is pretty pathetic. It just doesn't look right. I'm going to try and...well, destroy it a bit to try and get it to look as haggard as Garth's hair. The clothes will be a snap. My friend has agreed to be Wayne so she better not back out. Although if she does, I guess I'll be Garth sans Wayne. I'll just look gloomy as I morosely chew on red vines, giving a sad little "schwing" to passing ladies.
I still don't know what I am going to be for Halloween so if anyone has any neat ideas, throw them my way. Please.
Have you ever gotten home after doing something and be forced to wonder if the actions you partook in will turn out to be a bad decision and only keep you from what you actually want? Today has been one of those days. To fight it, here's some Jeff Buckley.
Whenever I'm doing something at a leisurely pace (like checking messages or putting lotion on), I very often find myself singing this Billy Bragg song to myself and it is always this lowkey version.
Just saw this tonight and it was pretty enjoyable. Fantastic for what it is. I just finished a rough draft of my review for it for my college paper. I'm too tired to complete it. Tomorrow's a new day, as they say.
A couple months or so ago I discovered Cineaction, which is a film studies journal based in Canada. I am completely in love with it and fully plan on sprucing up an analysis I wrote on three Western films in terms of how the films follow and stray from Western tradition (Fistful of Dollars, Rio Bravo, and The Proposition) and submitting it for consideration. If you love reading about films, you should certainly check this journal out.
If anyone knows of any other amazing film/music/literature journals or blogs (anything really), let me know!
I've been on a Young Ones kick. Out of all of my BBC obsessions, Young Ones is certainly the most...intelligently juvenile. If that makes sense. I just love the characters, especially those of Rick and Vyvyan. It was hard to decide on a clip so I went with a scene from Rick's party.
