Welcome

Hey, all, how're we doing? Good? Excellent. This'll mostly just be songs (though I guess technically it's poetry until I post the music, eh), stories and possibly me yelling about things (or going really, really quiet about things, depending on what it is and how serious I'm being). Anyways, just figured I'd get a preliminary post up here before I go sleep, because goddamn am I ever tired. It's late, as I'm sure you can see by the post's timestamp, and I have had a stressful day full of me making more mistakes. Mistakes are not fun, let me tell you. In fact, I would even go so far as to say that they are the absolute OPPOSITE of fun, especially in this case. I'm not going to whine about it on here, because not only do you guys most likely not care, but, quite frankly, it's stuff I have to deal with myself, and sharing it would only make things worse/much harder to fix, so... sorry. Maybe other stuff, in the future.

Real quick disclaimer, even though I most likely know everyone reading this; anything I post on this blog legally belongs to me, be it lyrics, actual music, tableture or even just rants. I'm just being careful, is all, folks. No need to worry. I mean, I won't totally lose my shit if you take my stuff. Not at all. Just a friendly threat... errr... warning.

Oh, yeah, disclaimer number 2: I swear. It's the way I talk, so it's the way I write. If you have a severe problem with it... well, this is the internet. There's really nothing you can do about it. Besides, there's more important shit to worry about out there than a couple vulgar words.

Started a couple new songs, tonight, lyrically: A Flawed Design, Digging My Own Grave, and Rainfall. I'll put those up in a bit, I guess, but I'm too tired now.

I have a couple writing projects in development, right now, and I dunno which to work on, right now. I have one which is essentially an extremely unconventional futuristic romance/adventure, one about amnesia and searching for one's true self called Splinter, & a currently untitled Mass Effect fan fiction. Any input on what you guys would most like to see would be cool.

So... music. Good year for music. Lots of new stuff on its way. Especially excited for the new Sum 41 record, the (possible? I'm not sure when it's supposed to come out) new Rise Against record, the new Gaslight Anthem record and (of course) the new blink182 record. Also the new Alkaline Trio record, but I'm talking about that in a second. New Story of the Year album, The Constant, came out on the... 16th, if I'm not mistaken, and it's pretty good. Nothing new, but everything I like about the band is there, so I can't complain. Also, this Tuesday, Alkaline Trio's seventh studio album, This Addiction (which I am super fucking excited for) comes out, and I have to wait until Saturday to get it, because I pre-ordered the super-extra-mega-happy-fun edition from HMV in Kelowna. I am a stupid asshole, sometimes. Still, though, it's a return to form for the boys, and, though I LOVED Agony & Irony just as much as their last efforts, I'm completely up for a straight-up punk record. I have faith in the Trio - don't let me down, Matt, Dan and Derek.

Uhm... hm. Shit. What else to say? Uh... Norton Anti-Virus is practically a virus itself, and whoever designed its constant "RENEW NOW NOW NOW" pop-ups needs a good, solid kick in the head, because it is the shittiest customer service application I have ever seen.

OH! I saw Shutter island with Zoe and Vanessa, yesterday (today? I don't even know what time it is. Yeah, yesterday's right) and it was AWESOME. Not that I expected anything less; my mind was more than satisfactorily blown, and it was the best movie I've seen in a long time. Seriously, if you get the chance to see it, do so - you won't be disappointed. Dennis Lehane (Gone Baby Gone) wrote the story, and he expects you to have a brain in your head; he will confuse the hell out of you, and you have to think about everything, all the time, which is the way a movie should be. It doesn't lead you by the hand because, quite frankly, not even the characters know what the hell is happening. It is one wild ride with an amazing twist that NO ONE SHOULD RUIN FOR ANYONE, EVER, and I highly recommend it.

Uh... think that's it, for this evening. Night. Morning. Whatever. Mariko or Jennie, if you read this, I promise to post in Lords of Creation real quick like, once I get homework done (which is a lot, and could take a while). Sorry for the delay.

Anyways, I'm off to sleep, because I'm starting to sleep twitch and am so tired that I can't think of anything else to say. I know! Me! with nothing to say! Preposterous, I agree.

Good night, whoever's out there in TV-Land, reading this.

Sleep well.
