Quick note

It's gonna be a bit jarring to see this ecstatic celebration of Talking Heads' third album and right after that... a post about my grandfather's passing over sixteen years ago.

So here is the buffer between the two.

I actually wrote about my grandfather before the album. It made sense to do it that way. Get into the grief and then heal. It wouldn't be the first time the music of Talking Heads comforted me through a dark time.

As usual, being lazy again...

After all the excitement of the other day, I haven't anything to follow up with. Just going through the motions with things right now. But I did want to post something today. Albeit ending up being just random rambles.

I may finish a short story tonight and try to get more into writing in my paper journal. I've been slacking off there lately.

Here's to something more substantial on Monday...

Quick note...

In my last entry, I did mention that I would no longer post reviews until I have decided what to do. I still will do this, but because the end of the year is upon us, it is time for something completely different: some best-of-the-year lists (with brief reviews).

I will be covering movies, music albums and songs (two different lists there), video games, and books. These lists will not cover all the releases of 2009 since, well, I'm extremely picky and I do not usually buy whatever is popular. So, you will likely see entries from years ago.

So, let's begin! We'll kick it off with movies...

/possibly pointless note

ETA: I have decided that there will be no list for video games. Didn't play any new releases, other than one of the Fallout 3 expansion packs (Point Lookout, in this case). Which is worth the money, BTW. But, if you can, just freaking buy the Game of the Year edition of Fallout 3 so you have the packs and the game. Just sayin'...

Just to let y'all know...

I cannot finish Bellefleur by the end of November. In fact, probably doing NaNoReMo this time was a bad idea.

I have a new deadline: finish by December 15th.

So, I'm calling it. Sis, best of luck with Dostoevsky.
