As much as I love Lindsey Buckingham and his solo works (and his work with Fleetwood Mac too), but I cannot lie...
Go Insane honestly scares the hell outta me. It also doesn't help that I knew, well sorta, why the album has the content that it does. From what I recall, a longtime relationship ended badly, a good friend passed on, and maybe personal issues never disclosed (?).
This is my third time listening to the album in its entirety and my opinion still stands... the man had some serious stuff go down, like WHOA.
Oh yeah, and it's pretty good. My least favorite by him, but still good.
*descends back behind the stack of records she was hiding from before*
P.S. For those unfamiliar, no, I wasn't named after Mr. Buckingham.

A new entry, in the tune of happy...
Wow, talk about singing a different tune. Today started off funny, but it got better over time. I turned in my paper, which I still think is made of concentrated idiocy. In Women & Lit, another professor read some of her published poems (which we're studying for the class). The poems were great.
Shakespeare remained as boring as ever. The only good thing is discussion on Hamlet will cease next time.
Philosophy of Religion... well, I got my midterm back. Y'know, the one that I didn't study too much on and feared of totally bombing it? Well... I got a B. *runs around the house cheering*
I also got my short story done (I wrote most of it during Shakespeare) and completed the first draft by the beginning of Philosophy.
I also finished Cranford a few minutes ago. I liked the characters, but the story... not so much. I know what Ms. Gaskell was doing with the novel, but I didn't enjoy it.
So, yeah. My day went a lot better than yesterday.
...
Until next time, good night...
ETA: I think my completed short story is a little novella-in-training. Awww... they're so cute until they grow up.
After some serious calculating (and asking a math nerd to check the numbers), I have discovered that my 100th entry was this one. So much for a kick-ass landmark entry. Oh well, fifty more entries until 200, so I can try again.

It's official: I fail.
Utterly, completely, never-has-there-been-so-much fail. Okay, here's the thing. And man, I apologize in advance for sounding like such a whiner.
I have managed to get zilch done.
I'm still (!) working on the story about the girl falling for Piscean guys. I have given myself until Columbus Day to finish it. Well, guess what's in over 24 hours and what hasn't been finished yet?
Atop that, I have a paper for Women and Lit that is about 80% finished and yet it feels like it's made of concentrated idiocy. It's due Monday.
My sickness persists... in a dry cough that has pulled a chest muscle. I wish I was kidding.
I haven't finished my readings and it continues to get worse, piling up to Leaning Tower of Pisa-like extravagance.
~
These are the times that I wish time can be halted just so I can catch up. But when should I just give up and let it go? Go ahead and fall over, fail a little? Not that this would be deserving of me, but an eventual outcome.
Perhaps I should suck it up and make a schedule.
Either way, man, I gotta do more than laze around on the Internet.

ETA: On a lighter note, check out my favorite song at the moment.
