MUSIC NIGHT (and lemon cake to boot)

I just had to post because I found another Black Lips song that is marvelous. Simply put, this post is basically a playlist for you fine folks/fuckers to listen to.

Oh, as far as life: it's all good right now. I'm spending two off days doing whatever and relaxing. Ate the hell out of some lemon cake with lemon frosting earlier. It was yummy.

Now, the tunes:

Here's one of my all-time favorite songs, City of Angels by the Distillers. Love it!

My recent favorite Black Lips song, Body Combat.

Bone Marrow by the Black Lips (huzzaaaaaaaaaaaaah!)

Have you caught the Fever yet?

I first heard of Dengue Fever many years ago on a late-night tv show about music that I watched religiously. That show is where I heard of several bands and musicians including four that I really enjoy: Dengue Fever, Cobra Starship, M.I.A and The Duke Spirit.

Of course, M.I.A is one of my all-time favorite musicians. Mathangi Arulpragasm (or Maya as she likes to be called) is a lyric goddess and is the only music considered by many to be 'rap' that I actually enjoy.

Dengue Fever, the subject of this post, is a band from California with a Cambodian lead singer named Chhom Nimol. She is AMAZING. (Keep in mind when listening to these guys that they also have a guy who sings lead sometimes. He's good, but Chhom is better.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lH7dbO8PpQc (amazing song by them. One of my faves.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzyPuX9f4_U&feature=relmfu (he sings here.)

The purpose of this post it to spread the word about Dengue Fever. Love them.

Are you an April Fool?

I forgot all about the first of this month being April Fool's Day until my coworker got a phone call from one of her three sons claiming that her eldest son had fallen down some stairs and broken his arm or something like that...? She said "bring him down here", knowing that the boys were pranking her.

I had totally forgotten about the day...

***
On another note, can you believe how fast this year is going? It's already April... I'll have been at my job a year and one month this month. That seems like an awfully long time to me.

I'm ready for May to get here because it holds some surprises for me but I am also sad to see 2012 fly by in such a hurry! It's sad on one hand but on the other, I may be going to school in the spring of 2013. *^_^*

I have decided to go back to school for video game design and the like. I think it will be a challenging course but I would have fun doing the work, creating characters and the like (seeing as how I loveee making up characters.)

I believe with all of my heart that I have picked a career path that best suits me. From a young age, I've been interested in creative fields. I wanted to be a toy maker in kindergarten, an astronaut (not so much on the creative side), a film director, a writer and many other things but I think I have chosen perfectly. (Nothing is set in stone just yet, just in case...but I really have no doubts.)

RANT TIME! :D

I have this former friend who is so selfish. Here's some examples of what she's done.

1. comes over and eats whatever

2. charged me for three people's worth of food from a restaraunt when she was only supposed to charge me for 2...

3. taken an entire pack of toothbrushes that she thought I bought for her when I only got them for her to take one out of the package!

There's more that's not in the same category as the above stuff.

1. No matter when it is, if she's off of work, she has a damn beer in her hand....

2. she's flip-floppy with her personality

3. she's easy to offend but does not give a shit about others' feelings

4. she's so annoying

I have ahad to rant about all of this for a while now but I have not had any ideas as to where to put it. As far as her selfish points that I brough up go, yes, I could have said something but see section 2 point 3. I am tired of people like that! I don't want anything to do with people like this any more! EVER again!!!! I am done with the bullshit!

Maybe everyone who is like this will read the above statements and never meet me or befriend me. :)

Winter was really non-existant and "starships were meant to fly!!!!"

PHEW!
Today was dreadfully hot and it makes me worry about what summer's gonna be like this year. We had practically NO winter whatsoever. Ticks, mosquitoes, the heat... everything's going to be raging an all-out war on us this summer. :(

It makes me sad.

Some good news: I am off from work for two days in a row! Woot! I bet you that these days won't end up as anything productive. In fact, I'm willing to bet that I won't get anything done!

Bet me. You know you want to!

Have a listen to my favorite song of the moment: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-8MagxjOrE

It's Nicki Minaj's Starships. I never thought I'd like a song by her until I heard this. It is marvelous!

Religion.........kills?

If you keep up with the news, I'm sure you've heard of the 23 year old Muslim man that killed four Jewish people, including 3 children, and some soldiers in France. Oh yeah, he video taped the murders, too.

8 year old Miriam Monsonego: He chased her through a shool and grabbed her by the hair. He tried to shoot her in the temple but his gun jammed, so he switched to a .45 and shot her point blank in the temple.

Look up the rest of the victims and tell me why religion kills children. Why do people do things like this in the name of their religion? (This guy's reasons were: honor of Islam, revenge on France for taking part in the Afghanistan war and revenge for dead Pakistani children.)

Stuck?

I feel weird inside.

Things in my life need to change. I need a change of scenery and I need it quickly. It's pretty bad that I have this thing where I don't stay put long. It's unfortunate. I move to one place and then, without hesitation, I leave it.

Until now.

I'm in a SMALL town and this August(ish) will be my four year mark. Something is off with this. Something is keeping me here and I don't want to be here. Does that make sense? I am thinking of many different ways that I could just leave but all of them require money and that's just something that I don't have a lot of at this time. Ya know, Florida is really calling me for some reason.

Maybe I'll be seeing some ocean soon. Who knows?
