Music? Don't got no stinkin music!

By
Now I'm not opposed to a good warchant. And I absolutely love Bryan Boru's March when Beowulfa plays it on her warpipes. But seriously, I don't listen to music.

Heck when I'm out fishin' off Durotar's coast... there is no noise other than the ticking of some imaginary clock. I can't even hear the noise a voodootroll makes when I bop it with my rockstick.

So I've compiled my own list of things I like to hear that have nothing to do with the music I don't get to listen to.

Orclette's laugh.

Orclette's burp.

A ticking clock in an otherwise soundless room.

Three blind gnomes.

Good food frying in a pan.

The thunk of a dart hitting the dartboard.

Keys on a keyboard as someone is typing not to fast, not to slow but just right.

Beowulfa's laugh.

Birds.

A cat purring.

A rotating fan on a hot day, with an engine running in the distance.

The squeak/creak of a hammock hung on a chain as you swing back and forth.

The sound of a tennis/baseball/golfball bouncing off the floor and off the wall and back to you.

The music(OOO I do listen to music) in The Great Escape.

Well thats about it for now.

mfd.

(humming) Three blind gnomes... three blind gnomes... see how they run... see how they run.... my orcish wife she cut out their eyes with her hunting knife... three blind gnomes...

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

There be too much history.

By
For the past couple of weeks Damm and I have been faithfully spending an hour each day working on our respective summer projects-he on his writing and me on Spanish and history. I had previously mentioned wanting to create some sort of series that I’d work on throughout the summer. I did a bit of brainstorming and decided that I should write essays on bits of fun and fascinating history. Then I started thinking up topic ideas and realized that I didn’t have enough time to randomly pick subjects, research them, and then write entertainingly. So I decided to pick one area of focus. It came down to either Modern Russia or the Civil War Era, since these are the two history courses I’ll be taking in the fall. I chose the Civil War. And even then I have not narrowed my focus enough. The essays one could write on the American Civil War … the possibilities are endless. And so I’m in the process of redefining what I will write/research. I’m in the midst of gathering info for a...

Werewolves are always better.

The question answering post will come tomorrow. Sunday was too busy. I just finished reading Twilight and New Moon . When I first started Twilight I wasn't impressed, it seemed slow and bleh and very teen dating girl story. Last night I got home at about midnight... I picked up New Moon. I was only going to read the ending to the scene that starts in the back of Twilight.... I didn't get much sleep last night(due to finishing New Moon). I'm loving the series. Although, wow these vamps scare me. Why? Because they are harder to kill. After reading the first book I spent 20 min thinking of counters. For a counter to be valid it has to be balanced. I can't just say "I'm superman and Vampires are deathly allergic to me and I heal like wolverine and have a robot army." (although when I ran into the aliens from Alien/Aliens/AvP for the first time, my counter at the time was almost exactly that.) I came up with the Dancer. He's a completely normal ...
