While i certainly don’t agree with all of the musical opinions that Bertie sets out in this post, i can at least respect that the girl has her musical priorities straight. In fact, i’m almost totally in agreeance with her up until she makes the deadly mistake of comparing Ani DiFranco to Dave Matthews :p

I woke up in the middle of the night last night for absolutely no reason, and so i logged on and caught up on some blog reading and chatting with various PuppetMaster players and then went back to sleep. In said sleep i had some very odd dreams, including one where i was walking around a series of tunnels that all lead to different restaurants while holding hands with a girl. While i was dreaming i didn’t really realize who she was, but in that slippery way that dreams can be i somehow knew as soon as i woke up. Five minutes later i checked my email and found out that she’s back. I’m only ever psychic about these little things, but sometimes it’s a real thrill.

One final thought before i head out for my Friday night: i really am partially or totally naked in the apartment as much as my cam would indicate. Of the last four occasions of Gina coming downstairs to see me, i have had to put on additional clothing before opening the door all four times. Needless to say, Gina is a bit disconcerted. Anyhow, we’re off to ramble around U-City, hopefully winding up at Aim’s place. Did i mention the members only area of cam archives? Maybe you should be on the notify list… hearing me whine about my life on a more personal basis is a small price to pay for being able to treasure the many partially nude moments i’ve had on the webcam.
I’ll leave you with that.

Links are yummy and good for you.
I don’t read MeFi too often, but when i do i get lots of content for my click. Although, i’m sure that a lot of it is true on some level other than the one where Microsoft holds 9-year-olds ransom for stock options, and the incidental research was enlightening. In other news, Dean takes one of America’s more brutal and pointless traditions to task much more succinctly than i have in the past. With medical and scientific support rapidly dwindling, here’s hoping that we’re seeing some progress in the right direction; mutilation does not equal tradition. Meanwhile, KevRock combines my favourite two things in the entire world of the internet: blogging and purity tests. Consider me hooked – and, my score is criminally low just based on the questions posted already. BTW, the real home of purity tests is here, and decidedly not anywhere near here. Speaking of which, at last check this new way to obsess over your popularity if sitemeter goes down says Rabi is just as popular than the bastardizers of the purity test (AKA TheSpark.com). Who knew? Of course, it also seems to be under the impression that i’m more often blogged than In Passing as well as Huny, so maybe there are some kinks to be worked out of the system. In other news, via Rabi’s trim new sidebar links i have found another totally disarming and entirely engaging webpage (because i haven’t found enough of them yet, apparently). Next, Pete over at Dependant Films clues us in on an interesting entanglement between Kevin Smith and GLAAD. I might not be a huge KS fan, but i think he’s in the right on this one. By the way, Jesus was not blonde. Oh, yeah, and my favourite web-game franchise got namechecked in a nationally syndicated magazine. Hits the stands on Monday, check page 73. Rock.
I figure i should actually blog every so often to keep my cred up ;)

Okay, so, don’t kill me for this, but upon a first impression Brian Jacobs struck me as a sort of male Tori Amos still in-utero. He has the same unenunciated pronunciation with a combination of supported notes and airy treads into his higher register, and the sort of plodding momentum of piano Tori’s mid-tempo work demonstrates, and his lyrics are obscure enough to be sure. Think “Siren.” After listening to some of his mp3 tracks i’m hungry to hear a full band behind him, and to learn a bit more. I’m not going to engage in the sort of idle criticism i would usually make at this point, because Brian is much nearer to someone i could imagine myself in the same relative orbit as if i ever got outside this apartment and tried. But, anyway, listen to him when you get tired of my expansive post-25/24 song catalogue. Blogged via JoeyRoo, who links me! Yay!
