I’ve recently run into a band via the extremely awesome mog. This band is known as the Freelance Whales. I’ve heard the music described as orchestral indie rock, and it”s a fitting description. They play an oddly uplifting kind of sound on an eclectic mix of instruments. They’ve recently released their first album, Weathervanes, which… Read More: Freelance Whales – Weathervanes »
So, as I am a catholic, I am (at least nominally) required to give something up for the forty days before Easter, also known as Lent.

It was good cake. Chocolate with this semi-mintish frosting, and m&ms on top. I lacked eating utensils, so most of… Read More: I feel like breaking a pattern today (In other news,… »
A question far greater minds than my own have tried to answer, to be certain. Never-the-less, as the clock approaches midnight and I stay up futilely hoping that my internet connection will increase ten-fold so I can install Dragon Age tonight rather than tomorrow afternoon, I feel inclined to tackle it.

I recently finished watching the show Odyssey 5, created by one Manny Coto. Remember that name. Do not watch this show. It is one of the most awesome shows ever, but the finale is non-existent.
