We're Both Kinda Cute For Two Ugly People

I really don't have much to write about today, I just feel slightly obligated to post something. Also, my boss is MIA, so I've got all the time in the world, baby.

So it looks like John Mayer has retired from blogging. Good thing, too, because he was making me look bad. That guy had the most insanely intelligent writing style. It was so witty and well-spoken, and it only served to make me feel bad about the way I write. Good Riddance, John Mayer's Blog. ...I'll miss you...

Oh, of course, the big news item this week, (that actually eclipsed the "Britney's A Crazy Bitch" normalcy) was Heath Ledger's death. I was pretty saddened by it -- I was always a fan, and I think I still have a "10 Things I Hate About You" poster on my wall at my dad's house (don't judge. My room there hasn't changed since like, 1999). Anyways, I guess the official autopsy won't be back until Monday, and until then, feel free to speculate about what happened to him, because you won't find it here. There have been so many other good posts on his work, and his life, and I really don't feel like I would do him any justice. So if you're looking for some intense pontification, I'm sorry to say, but you just won't find it here today.
Here's a really good post that's a little out of the norm -- from someone who actually met him:

Alright, that was depressing, so take a look at this:




I've been toying with the idea of moving my blog to an official website -- however, yesterday, Comcast shut off my fucking service before the end of the month, so I am without internet and cable. It. Is. Shitty. Seriously. You don't realize how much time you spend dicking around on the internet until you don't have it anymore. I had this big plan of building my site with Dreamweaver and launching it, but I guess that's going to have to wait a few weeks, until I can get my computer installed at (shudder) one of my parents' house. Guh.

Apparently everyone in the world knew about this song, "Heartbeats", but I just learned of it. It's by The Knife, out of Sweden. It's old, but it's a fantastic song.




A few weeks ago, I was watching Bloc Party's set at Austin City Limits from last year, and the next band that played was Ghostland Observatory. They are freaking awesome. It's just two guys out of Austin that play electronic music. Take a listen.

I spend a lot of time on Flickr, going through photos and finding new backrounds for my phone (bee boop boop, that one's for you Kraxburgular), but this set is really, really cool. It's people posing with album covers. Blogger's picture uploader isn't working right now (ah, memories from the past), so here's the link. Check it out.

Alright, my computer is blowing up and I can't hear people coming down the hall, so I'd better stop where I am. Oh! I forgot! I'm going up to Aspen this weekend for the X Games. I'll report back, I promise.
