what an oh-so-appropriately timed Vox Hunt lol..
New design so perhaps I'll now update regularly? Probably not, but it's a vague possibility so we won't rule it out just yet. Plus, Jared and George both updated, so now I feel like a slacker. George wrote some really poignant piece about snowflakes and preserving memories, and all kinds of "deep"ness. Me? I've been immersed in my shallowness. My library books are woefully overdue, but my DVR is full. Discord.
I did, however, buy a most fabulous bike yesterday for a low, low price. Photos to come, and more words also. Truly.
In the meantime, go listen to this: Violet Stars Happy Hunting
Mindblowing.
What will be your famous last words?

"There went the Boom."
Yikes! Some pre-show "artistic" (you be the judge!) nude photos of Jael have surfaced. She looks good, but yeah clicky at your own risk:
That's why I could never be famous or on TV. WAY too many skeletons in my closet. And maybe even a video or two. :-p
Argh. Another one of those restless Sunday nights when I know darn well I should be doing something with my hair and I just do not feel like it. Ugh. I seriously need to go about finding somewhere to go in for my shaving TOMORROW. I wish I could do it myself. :-( But yeah, anyway, I'm all decided. No dye, no texturizer, just shaved. It's pointless to resist. I know I'm going to look very odd with my new glasses and all, but oh well. As I've said a gazillion times already... having hair never won me a man or friends anyway. Ugh, if I could I would just do this tonight so I can wear a freakin' hat outside in the cold tomorrow. :-( Because this is truly an inconvenient pain. Either spend hours tonight twisting it up so I can wear a hat or else go without a hat and make do with ear muffs. :-( Those are my options and that really, REALLY sucks. It's either vanity or sanity at this point, and I'll have to pick sanity. Hair or no hair, it's pretty damn obvious that I'm never going to date, have sex, or have a relationship ever again, so... it just doesn't really matter what I do to myself, honestly. :-\ Nobody cares. If I wanted to I could just get a big tattoo across my face and it wouldn't change my life one iota. :-\ Shaved head, fifty tattoos, coca-cola bottle glasses, orange hair,... and I'll still be sitting here doing what I'm doing right now, no less unhappy because it isn't possible for me to be any more unhappy than I am now. :-\ Or any more unhappy than I have been at other points in my life. That time when I was just really at the bottom and seriously contemplating suicide, I had a full head of hair. :-\ So it just really doesn't even matter. I've been at the bottom forever, nothing else can hurt me any more than I've already been hurt inside.
That day when I was reading at NP, I did peek at the inevitable Britney thread-- and as much as there's riff-raff over there, there's always someone speaking the truth. That the reaction wasn't so much for shaving the head, it was WHO shaved her head. Nobody gave a care when India Arie did it, nobody cared when Pink (just about) did it. But because it was this PRETTY, sexy, "FEMININE" blond white woman who did it, so EVERYBODY cares and is aghast and appalled. (And this was posted before the rehab news broke...) And it's pretty obvious that no one considers me to be any of the above, so... I'm scot-free. :-p Just like a guy shaving his head for all it'd mean in my case. No social repercussions when you don't have any social standing any darn way. Bottom of the rung before, bottom of the rung after.
And why am I even still talking about this? I guess I'll finally be able to stop when I don't have crap sitting on top of my scalp anymore and don't have to think about what I'm going to do with it in the morning, grr... That will be a day for rejoicing, and hopefully it will be within the next 7 days. Someplace around here has got to take walk-ins.
Ugh, I wrote another ranting entry at last.fm. I've been listening to the same 4 or 5 people non-stop for the last few months (Lyfe, Blu, Monica, Fergie, Pink...) because everything else bores the hell out of me. And now I'm bored with those same 4 or 5 people and everything else I tried yesterday sucked too (except Amy Winehouse-- may have a new addiction there). But yeah, hopefully it'll pass. Last year's round of promising albums disappointed to no end -- Furtado, the Wreckers, even the Legend to some degree disappointed me. But this year may be better. There's Amy Winehouse coming to America this month. New Joss Stone (getting a little funky and VERY drugged-out, egads, what happened to the girl???). Supposed to be new Blu Cantrell. New Teedra Moses. New Keyshia Cole. New Tamar Braxton (supposedly also.) New Celine Dion. New Erykah Badu. Hanson coming back to America in May. New Alicia Keys. New Mariah Carey. New Bone Thugs N Harmony (which I'm actually more than a little excited for-- read an article in the Fader about them-- free download on iTunes-- I'm pretty darn optimistic about it). So yeah, hopefully once these albums start coming my way, things will get better. I hope the new Teedra Moses is awesome. her first album is one that just sneaks up on you. it isn't one that I listen to over & over again, but I still consider it like one of my favorites ever. :-p I dunno about that album. I don't think her new one will be as appealing to me, personally, as the old one. Her mom had died just before she started recording the first one. And there's this sweet sadness pervading the whole album and it actually makes for a very rich listening experience. Because otherwise, she can start sounding like a Beyonce. But yeah, my favorite song on that album is definitely "Complex Simplicity". It's such a positive upbeat number, but it's actually kinda sad, yet hopeful. :-p A part goes "We ain't got no choice but to party, party it all away, party for brighter days" and that's just the part that gets me. It's an excellent song, you'll love it. I just have a sick inkling that her new album will be more "street". *Gags*
And Amy Winehouse... it just kills me that this is some trashy-looking white chick, lol. When you first hear "Rehab" you're thinking it's Lauryn Hill, lol. And then from there on, she's into some full-blown 1960s black doo-wop girl group stuff. :-p It's the Supremes, it's Aretha Franklin, it's everything playing on Dusty Radio 1390. :-p And then not only is she some trashy-looking white chick, she's MY AGE!! Ack! You'd at least hear this and think she was some mid-30s chick, but nope. She's 23. :-p But yeah,. she's 50 kinda shades of awesome nonetheless. It's pretty sad that in R&B I;m most excited about albums being released by white chicks. :-\ That new Joss Stone and this Amy Winehouse stuff puts shame to all these Black (& other ethnic) girls running around thinking they're cute. :-\ Nobody's having a debate over whether or not Joss Stone can sing. :-p Here's one that I just love from Amy, "Me & Mr. Jones (What Kind of Fuckery is This?)" :-p LOVE!
