I realized I hadn't posted one of these in forever... so what the hell. Just grabbing a few from my Imeem playlists, and then, a lil' something special to celebrate Time Crash, a 7-minute Doctor Who "episode" which airs today on the BBC.
I love emo. Not all, but yeah, I listen to it.
(watch Chad *CRINGE* when he reads that... ehhehe)
I'm a sucker for a catchy beat. That's all there is to it, really. It's schlock, believe me -- I know. But, it's so excellent for when I'm at work or cleaning, ya know? Don't have to think about the lyrics at all (and frankly, it's best not to); just music in the background that you can bop around to. Or, at least, I can...
Thought I'd share. Because, you know, I really do listen to some awful stuff... ; )
(This is essentially a test to see if Vox imports my LJ. Also, just a side note that the lead singer to Gogol Bordello is kind of an asshole. Just listen to Alcatriz's first podcast or two where he does a short interview... ugh.)

So, last weekend we went to Red Dragon for the 3rd anniversary of the Minneapolis Metroblogging site. MB Mpls' city captain Erica was the first down, followed by Chad and myself.
I was happy that Aaron Landry stopped in (had been wanting to meet him for a while), followed by Leif P from the freshly-launched This Is Why I Love Minneapolis (and sometimes St. Paul).
And... that was all that showed up. There were great discussions, but all the same, we were disappointed that the turnout, well, didn't turn out. I am still happy to have met a couple people, and it's always great to see Erica.
Anyway, I just got the media center PC back up, so we're watching Battlestar Galactica's 3rd season just now (ep15 if you're curious). Earlier today, had lunch with Chad and Ryan over at Pho Tau Bay; pretty good, as usual!
Afterwards, Ryan took Chad out to an electronics store. I was slightly mortified at the thought of leaving them alone together around expensive gadgets. To my surprise, he came home with Christmas presents for the family, and then some pears, chocolates, ravioli and spanokopita. Heh!
And now... I go focus on BSG. I leave you with this, snagged from
I just saw it. Yay!
