New link on sidebar!

Well, not a totally new link, but the book collection has been updated with a librarything.com page that I’ve set up. If you want to keep track of the books you own, I definitely reccommend using that site.

EDIT:

I’ve done the same with my movies.

3 More shifts

And no more Co-op, and possibly on to being a government hack.

Suburbia by Matthew Good

You will come back within yourself
You can be art when we melt
I will know what you were for
And I say we’re leaving
There ain’t nothing here at all
Another day, a week, the mall
Baby, if I was in demand you would be mine
You would be mine

Someday this place is gonna burn
Is your whole life in there, waiting?
And someday your head is gunna turn
And you’ll realize I’m missing
Do you realize?

You will come back, convice yourself
You can stay alive and wait for me
And I will know what this was for
And I’ll say we’re leaving
There ain’t nothing here at all
Another month, a year, that’s all
So you can tell them I’m coming and hell’s coming with me
Hell’s coming with me

Someday this place is gonna burn
Is your whole life in there, waiting?
And someday their heads are gunna turn
And they’ll realize, they’ll realize
They’ll realize you’re missing

We are them

Sweet, I’m sleepy
It feels like the real thing
The doctors are confident the pills always win
It’s like constantly travelling but you don’t see a thing
And the parts of you, forgotten, are all unearthed
That night we were hopeless and dead on our feet
The bombs started falling, we walked out to the street
And waited for confidence because surely it’s given
Only at the last minute so you can die living

Candle 1, Shane 0

I was reading tonight, like I do before bed, and I fell asleep while I was reading. I had a candle lit, and I dunno exactly what happened, if I turned and flung my sheets over top of it or what, but I woke up rather suddenly with the corner of my bed on fire. I managed to put it out, then wake up dad, and then break down.

This is not a good night.

Baby, I ain’t dimed, yeah, it still keeps me up at night

As word is making it’s way around my work that I’m leaving, I’m getting lots of “why” and “I’ll miss you”, and the odd smack. Apparently people like me.

I downloaded the Game of Life on my cell phone today, and who should my random opponent be, than a CPU player named Kelly.

I’m bummed out now.

Sort of a Protest Song

Me: I am listening to Sort of a Protest Song. I think I might cry.
Justine: using a rought guess, approximately how many times do you think you’ve listened to that song?
Me: Let’s see, album was released in 2001. Possibly close to a thousand times.
