N-N-N-New Year + Seafood

6 hours 58 minutes until 2010

Woah.

This year has (as always) seemed really really short.

I don't want '10 to come!

I can't say the letter o when saying what year it is anymore!!

My favorite number is 10 though. I know, real original. It's just that I remember when I was 10 years old, I said the following: "This has been the best year of my whole life-Ten will always be my favorite number!" So, not being one to cause too much change, I've left it at that.

I haven't actually made New Year Resolutions yet though...I still have a few hours.

Boy o' boy-tonight my menu is a little intense: Tilapia, shrimp scampi, stuffed crab, grilled asparagus and carrots, long grain rice....Some raspberry punch later...the list goes on. Riveting. Ha!

Anyway, I wanted to make my statement for the New Year.

Change is fantastic, truly it is. However, rapid change has always bothered me. When you try to completely flip yourself, you end up losing yourself, in a moral sense. Eh, I'll sort out my opinion on the aforementioned (love that word) later. For now, my rice is boiling!!!!

Mmmmmm, asparagus.

infomercials control my nights

So I'm sitting here on my laptop...and I was watching Scrubs reruns..and then some classic Three's Company...Soon enough, all the fantastic shows disappeared and I'm sitting here left with *dramatic music* infomercials.

:(

There's a man trying to sell me a generic slap chop? He's frustrating me, but get this. I can't find my stupid remote. It's painful. I do suppose I could manually change the channels, but what can I say, I'm lazy.

So, here I am. Caught in an epic battle of wills. Infomercials or actually getting up from the comfort of my bed?

Eh, maybe I'll think about it for a minute more. I hope no one else ever has to go through this.

It's 2am, and I'm starting to realize that I've developed this awful habit of staying up till obscure hours of the night. *Sigh*

I am really happy about the books I just bought at B&N:

A Conneticut Yankee In King Arthur's Court

Babbit and

The Age of Innocence

Oh sweet literature! How I love thee so!

Well, time to attempt to force myself to sleep.

Night night.

And Let The Fishsticks Pour Down From The Highest Mountains

Ok, so I apologize for the random title, and this post has nothing to do with fishsticks.

Disappointed? I understand.

Moving on, I went to the optometrist today. So new glasses I won't ever wear! Hoo-rah!

Silly nearsightedness, you won't get the best of me.

So yea, the doc's name was Dr. Silvers..and the whole time I was sitting in the waiting room just hoping his first name was John.

Well, it wasn't. :(

I'm sure someone in his family was John..It's a common name. It would be even better if John Silvers was tall. That would make my week. I'll keep the dream alive.

Meanwhile, I learned that my brother lacks all common sense. He just bought an iTouch, so I showed him the basics. Which of course had nothing to do with how to download some "free" music. ;D

Anyway, that was last week, and he hasn't been able to "figure the rest out" as I had hoped he would. I've been bombarded with countless unnecessary questions that could have been resolved with a little bit of guesswork. Needless to say, my patience it running thin.

Therefore, I've come up with my top five working excuses that somehow or another gets people away from you for a few more minutes, check it:

1. "Sorry, I would tell you how to turn your Itouch on, but I've recently learned that Taco Bell hasn't opened any restaurants in Guatemala. So I'm trying to start a non-profit organization to send tacos to underprivileged Guatemalans."

**Whether or not it's true, the absurdity of the statement usually distracts the victim long enough that you'll have the chance to escape.

2. Zap. Zap. Zap. You've been zapped. Zap. Zap. Zap. Zapped again. Zapped. Zappity zap. Zap.

**So it's very annoying, but kinda fun at the same time. Just use your hand as a gun and zap away your nuisance. Trust me, they'll eventually give up.

3. Pick up your phone and immediately pretend your on a phone call with a very important person. I usually use such phrases as:

"That's right, Mr. President", "Sorry Pope, I can't make it.", "Listen Madonna, there's nothing I can do, he's not up for adoption....yet"

4. Randomly burst out into song. Show tunes seem to have the best affect.

5. Whoever's annoying you, just attack them with a hug. I don't think it works every time, but you'll at least be able to catch them off guard, and maybe get away just in time.

Well, I'm off to teach lil' bro about the joys of application searching. Now if only there was an app to teach him to use everything else? Hmmm.

The Rev and then a brighter side

So it's 1am, and I feel like I'm accomplishing nothing with my over-blogging.

I'm sorry. :)

Anyway, I'm very sad at the moment. I just heard about Jimmie Sullivan, "The Rev", drummer from Avenged Sevenfold died today at only 28 years of age!!!! :(

Now, I'm not *that* big of fan of A7x-but that's besides the point. I find it devastating when someone that young, with that amount of talent is removed from the world's vision.

Could it have been self-afflicted? Yea, unfortunately, there's all sorts of rumors on what happened, but no speculations from me yet.

As a self-proclaimed drummer, I hate to see anyone who had that much skill fall. It really brings me down. Right now, I'm praying for the band and Jimmy's family.

Oh well, this wasn't a happy thing to speak of. Moving on.

On a lighter note, I think I simply must soon post some of these videos I've been finding!! Too funny.

Also dealing with videos, I was given this sickk video editing software (my nerd homies: Adobe Premiere Elements 7) that will help me produce my "long awaited" film....

Daylight! A Twilight parody!!

Now I need to fix Hunter's part (She wanted to be Jasper-when I casted her as Aaron)

exciting!

In the meantime, check this site out! xtranormal.com

You can makes some outrageous text-to-speech vids from there. I'm obsessed. If you do find yourself there, search for the Awkward Moments series, it's all mine, baby. :D

Well, this has been another rambling blog, courtesy of yours truly.

Night, night.

Random Ramblings Of Music And Spain

Yea, so here's the deal..the lowdown..the update, if you will...

(I feel like i'm talking to myself? Oh well :D)

I was listening to Between The Trees a second ago...(love that band, very mellow)

The song "Spain"-awesome song-it has me wanting to visit Spain awfully bad. :(

Okay, so Spain isn't mentioned a whole lot in the song...but the word Spain is pretty!

That didn't make sense. Real smooth, Heather.

Well, this was my lame attempt at blogging..Off to work on my sad blogging skills...One day it will come together...one day...somehow :)

Until that moment, buy into my endorsement of Between The Trees, if you like that sort of thing... x)

Oh, and while you're here...I might as well publicize

"Afterlife" by Avenged Sevenfold and

"A Boy Brushed Red Living In Black and White "

by Underoath...

not usually my music, but hey...

<2 those songs..

-I forgot to mention: <2>Heather Dictionary...it's like <3, but just a little bit less passionate, unlike <4 which is over-the-top love..Alright, now that I've rambled for a while, I do believe it's time I bid you farewell.

So here I am, blogging

Ello.

I'm blogging!

So, does this make me a "blogger" a "blogee" a "blog-o-phile"? Uhm, let's completely throw out that last one.

Anywho, (yes, i just said that) I suppose my purpose here is a cure to boredom...and my overly opinionatedness (wow, that's actually a word, but anywho isn't? Stupid spellcheck!)

Well, I do believe I'm going to leave now. I'll try to recollect my bloggyness (not a word..yet) and come back with a much more exciting topic.

Anticipating it? Oh, I know you are. ;D You invisible followers, you crave my blogs. x)

I feel like I'm dancing on the edge of sanity, so I'll get outta here.
