Just a reminder: I'll be reading with Kim "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea" Cooper and Scott "If You're Feeling Sinister" Plagenhoef at the Hammer Museum in LA tomorrow evening at 7 pm. It's free! The reading will include a video or two of Richard & Linda Thompson making music plus some audio comparisons of RT's music and a snippet of an interview. If you're in LA, please come! If you're not in LA, I think there's some cheap last-minute tickets available.
Spike: I'm not a monster. Xander: Yes! You are a monster. Vampires are monsters! They make monster movies about them! Spike: Well, yeah. Got me there.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Because books.
Holy shit, Frank. I think "goodbye productivity" about sums it up. For today, anyway.

Thanks, Frank!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I will be there with my DH, Cor, barring any work craziness! And I owe you an email, so I will get that off ASAP.

I'm doomed. DOOOOOOMED. Never getting any work done, ever again.

Yeah, I went straight for "November Rain" myself. And then right on to everything I could think of from high school.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Aww I struck out on my first try. They don't have "The New Song" by Howard Jones.

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
The Bouncing Souls are having their Home For the Holidays shows after Christmas at the Stone Pony.
I just got a three night ticket (complete with meet & greet) in the presale. There were 50 available and I'm # 28. That was at 12:07. I'm all giddy about the shows and still full of adrenaline from the frantic refreshing and typing. Such tragic dorkery.
