Music Recs
Haven't posted here in months, so I thought I'd start off with a few music recs.
These are on YouSendIt, so they'll go off after a week -- so if you like the music, you'd better grab it. :)
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds feat. P J Harvey: Henry Lee (Murder Ballads, 1996)
You can never get enough of Nick Cave. I especially love this duet; it's ( Read more... ) -

A Night on the Bay
I haven't posted here for quite a while, have I? Mm.
In celebration for 4th of July, which we really don't celebrate at all and instead use as an excuse to go out for fine dining, the family went out for a day to Monterey. Instead of visiting the Aquarium (the line had stretched to the next street), we decided to go on the 17-Mile Drive. If you don ( Read more... ) -
The layout laughed and ran away.
What happened to the Egypt layout, you may ask?
...It wasn't made for me to begin with, but for my dear friend. I was just testing the layout.
Now I'm stuck with this dreary thing, until I find/make a better one.
(Sorry, Sei, for stealing your lay.) -
Happy birthday, Sora-chan.
One, two, three.
One, two, three.
One, two, three.
It's just him and the flag, and the flap of the wind against the bright fabric. It's just him and the flag, with the spin and the flash.
He could get lost in it.
He spins the flag, faster and higher, back-hand, flip, twist, slam! Back-hand, flip, twist, slam! It clouds his mind, this ( Read more... ) -
Sestina.
It's not often I try my hand at something other than writing, but I have a feel for the prose of a poem. It's a thoughtful one, this poem, not acknowledged by many as a form of poetry, but I feel it wrangles the mind into playing its hand.
...care to try at what topic is at hand?
Here, I stand, used and weak,
my friend of friends, near dead.
Oh, how ( Read more... ) -
It's absolutely lovely, hun.
Lit./Writing: Today we were to characterize a figure from Romeo and Juliet, and then draw the character out. I was working with Parry, next to Sei. Parry, he's not a terrible drawer. Not at all. I looked at his representation of Mercutio, and told him, 'I like your drawing ( Read more... ) -
Late Resolutions.
This year, I promise to write smut. At least 10,000 words of smut. And I mean pr0n, not just "He fell against the bed with a gasp," kind of thing.
Full-blown smut scene.
I shall attempt. More of the type to write angsty epics and war fics than smut, but I will endure. -
Yatta. To begin with... A most darling read.
Hmm, found a most interesting rewrite/remix of Cambiare Podentes, Cambiare Podentes: Invocare by jordangrant. Before people "have a wank", as many so like to say, I agree it it is one of the most beautiful fictions I've had the chance to read; pity I never read the original, as I've heard great things about it.
It is an excellent remix, incredibly in- ( Read more... )
