New Year's Eve was interesting this year. Went to a really nice party at a friend's house then on to the Heretic. It was a disaster. Up until midnight, they had a really obnoxious drag queen as an emcee that would not shut up. Thankfully after 12, she went away. Of course, the DJ ended up being horrible and almost completely ruined the evening. Thankfully at Xion the music was a 1000 times better and there was a really fun, hot crowd.

You know an album is good when you listen to it through twice before noticing.

I can't say I am a fan of navel rings.

If I hear Lana Del Rey's song "Summertime Sadness" one more time I will go postal.

Phrase of the week is "phalanx of asshattery."

Once again, I am not going to Coachella. I refuse to tolerate all the obnoxious crowds that are there only to see and been seen. Pretty good lineup this year, though.

Sometimes, just when you think you've given up on someone, they can come back and surprise you.

Your partner doesn't have to get everything about you, but it sure helps if they have one thing that you can both geek out on.

I am really enjoying showing Andrew the Buffy The Vampire Slayer series.

I invented a new word/sound: grrroinkdrooolslurpunf.

While I was not a huge fan of the Rhye album, I was always intrigued by lead singer Milosh's very feminine voice. He has released a solo record called Jetlag, and the best description of it I have heard is that is sounds like Sade singing Kid A. It has been on constant repeat this week.

This cracked me up this week.

I have a lot of acquaintances, but very few friends. When I was younger, this used to bother me, but I guess in my cranky later years I don't really mind so much.

For some very bizarre reason, gloves do not make my hands warm. In fact, my hands get colder when I have them on.

Why do all straight men over the age of 50 default to a black turtleneck and Dad jeans for casual Fridays at work?

Speaking from experience, regardless how minor the damage in a car accident is, always have the police come and file a report.

I don't have time for people that only want to be friends on their own terms and schedule.

Hee hee.

I could never do porn, not because of the having sex on camera thing, but because they make you do all those really horrible still photo shoots in awkward, annoying poses.

My eyelashes are too long.

The Oreo cheesecake at Cafe Intermezzo is sinfully good. And the slices are so big, you can usually have half leftover for later.

It boggles the mind why people still think I might have even a passing interest in sports.

Indeed.

Beards really don't protect you much from the cold.

5 degrees is a bit cold for Atlanta. I wasn't prepared to have to deal with that when going to the gym early in the morning.

Thankfully, the cold has kept a lot of the new year's resolutioners away from the gym this week.

I will freely admit my record reviews have been sort of half-assed lately. I need to recapture my mojo.

Perfect.

It's never easy saying goodbye to a pet.

Andrew and I really need a sectional sofa.

I think Butterfingers are pretty damn nasty.

Your cute for the day.

Lyrics Rattling Around My Brain

"In deepest hollow of our minds
A system failure left behind
And their necks crane
As they turn to pray for rain
And their necks crane

Dull residue of what once was
A shattered cloud of swirling doves
And their eyes change
As they learn to see through flames
And their necks crane
As they turn to pray for rain
And their eyes change
As they learn to see through flames
And their necks crane
As they turn to pray for rain

Drops on rocks fall fast and fleeting
Hearts and wings commence to beating
Woods unseen with all believing
Vision walls fall all receding
Vision walls fall all receding

Drops on rocks come fast and fleeting
Rhythm laws unleash their meaning
Usher us into the dreaming
Vision walls fall all receding
Hearts and wings commence to beating
All unending all completing
Vision walls fall fast and fleeting
Vision walls fall all revealing
Vision walls fall all revealing
Vision walls fall all revealing
Vision walls fall all revealing

In deepest hollow of our minds
A system failure left behind
Dull residue of what once was
A shattered cloud of swirling doves
And their eyes changed
As they learned to see through flames
And their necks craned
As they prayed for rain."

Massive Attack
"Pray For Rain"

"Hopelessly drift
In the eyes of the ghost again
Down on my knees
And my hands in the air again

Pushing my face in the memory of you again
But I never know if it's real
Never know how I wanted to feel
Never quite said what I wanted to say to you

Never quite managed the words to explain to you
Never quite knew how to make them believable
And now the time has gone
Another time undone

Hopelessly fighting the devil
Futility
Feeling the monster
Climb deeper inside of me

Feeling him gnawing my heart away
Hungrily
I'll never lose this pain
Never dream of you again."

The Cure
"Untitled"

"You're the color
You're the movement and the spin
(never)
Could it stay with me the whole day long

Fail with consequence
Lose with eloquence
And smile

I'm not in this movie
I'm not in this song
Never leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love

You're the color
You're the movement and the spin
(never)
Could it stay with me the whole day long

Fail with consequence
Lose with eloquence
And smile

You're not in this movie
You're not in this song
(never)

Leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love
Leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love...

Leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love
Leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love

Leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love
Leave me paralyzed, love
Leave me hypnotized, love."
