Not dead!
Yay! I successfully rode my motorcycle back from Austin today without incident! :)

Change is inevitable - except from a vending machine.
From what you knew before, there's been a major life change in my life.
Feel free to either draw inferences from these two songs: Sunrays And Saturdays, Every Little Thing You Wanted, or call me.
I've decided to re-embrace the artistic side of myself. I think it's because I'm now loving my job so much that it fulfills my intellect, but seeing all the artwork, that part of me is craving. That being said, I'm going to start going to life drawing classes at work, and am going to start playing the guitar again (and no, Guitar Hero although lots of fun, doesn't count).
Also, I'm heading to Austin this weekend, and will be riding my motorcycle the 214 mi from Austin to Dallas. Now, I'm a lot more confident on my motorcycle this time around, but having had to deal with the pain of a crash once, and never having taken it city-to-city driving, a part of me is absolutely terrified. I'm confident that I can make the drive, it's just all the uncertainties I'm worried about - rain, other stupid drivers, cramps, etc. Here's hoping it's an uneventful ride. Posts like this send shivers down my spine - not because I'm afraid, but because of the fellow bikers that have died like that.
And everyone who hasn't seen my new house (that's all of you), you need to. I'll show you a gorgeous view from my back porch. ^_^ Also, just in case you wanted to know - slipping down stairs while holding a cat SUCKS! Since when did I become clumsy?

Infatuated.
Quite often do I forget about and then later come to realize how much I love music, with both periods of time varying greatly. Today was one of the latter. I'm sure I must look like an idiot to the other people here at work mouthing the words to songs that are over 4 years old
Dishwalla - Somewhere In The Middle
I was out the other day
and I saw you in your big black car
and I was waving as you were passing
cause I know who you are
you had this look that of an angel
it was such a bad disguise
did you think for second I would not realize
tripping hard falling down onto the ground
cause I can't stand up
and I can't fall down
cause I'm somewhere in the middle of this
I was out the other night
and I saw you so we had a fight
it was late and I was lonely
and its such a long way home
so I asked you if you'd join me
for a single last call drink
so you turned and bought us 2
and you didn't even blink
you had this look that of an angel
it was such a bad disguise
when you drink it makes you angry
when I drink I want you more and more and more
tripping hard falling down onto the ground
cause I can't stand up
and I can't fall down
and I'm somewhere in the middle of this
well I find it hard
I always tried to find the sane life
but I don't like the way things are
and I keep falling to my knees
somewhere in the middle of this

Freakin' hilarious
The house is settled - I'm finally starting to get a little setup, which is really exciting. :) Just looking forward to some time to unpack and clean up.
Oh, and this is my new favorite quote:
(regarding the Nintendo Revolution, recently renamed the Wii - pronouced "WHEE!")
It'll probably be the best selling system of all time. Clearly things don't work out when Nintendo tries to play everyone else's game. The Gamecube is pretty similar to the PS2 and Xbox, it did OK. Then Sony was like "We're gonna give you Grand Theft Auto on a handheld, beat that" and Nintendo said "Fuck it. Here's this thing that looks like a fake PDA you'd find in some kid's 'IT worker playset' that has N64 graphics. And oh yeah, we're gonna make you do arithmetic problems." Bajillion dollars. Now they're gonna bump it up a notch just to see how ridiculous they can make something sound and still sell more than they can produce.
