Today is my 35th birthday, and I thank everyone sending birthday wishes to me today. However, it is also World AIDS Day and the beginning of AIDS Awareness Month. So while you're thinking of me, please think about making a donation of any amount to either www.amfar.org or to www.theglobalfund.org, 2 organization that help people with AIDS and ( Read more... )

I won't stand in your way / Let your hatred grow / And she'll scream and she'll shout and she'll cry  / And she had a name, yes she had a name

And I wont hold you back / Let your anger rise / And we'll fly and we'll fall and we'll burn  / No one will recall, no one will recall

This is the last time I'll abandon you / And this is  / The ( Read more... )

In other news, we watched an episode of No Reservations tonight and they played a cover of the Television song "Marquee Moon" which made me remark the threerings something along the lines of "That's such a great song. That is exactly ( Read more... )

I think I've posted these lyrics before, but I don't really care. This song has spoken to me today, hard. It's one of my very favorite bands, The Veils, covering a song by Scritti Politti, which I've never heard. It's just... great. Truly great.

Now when it leaves your hand
Just understand
That I'm the one it missed
Right through a piece
I've been keepin' away

I thought of the mess I made again
How do I ( Read more... )

Let's see what's been playing lately...

Got around to listening to the Boris album Dronevil this week.

Long time, no post... The lack of ability to post at work coupled with the lack of time and patience to post from the dial up connection at home and the lack of feedback received here (except from flickgoddess I would add) has lead to an obvious lack of posts. I make no apologies, and offer only lacking excuses.
There will be no top 52 for this past year. I ( Read more... )
