Yes, I'll probably update just this once and then forget about it for another 6 months. Thpbbbbt.

Spent the day at work doing...work stuff, not much to report there. Now that I'm home, we need to figure out what we're going to do tonight. At some point I'll be calling my mom to whine about the fiscal clusterfuck we're in, but everything else is up in the air. I'm leaning toward picking up some beer and soda and renting this Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic game, since it's supposed to be face-meltingly awesome, even if you're kinda indifferent to the whole SW universe. Which I am. We'll see how H feels about my little scheme.

I'm bracing myself for an earful of piss and bile from mom for "getting myself into the situation I'm in" and "accepting consequences" and lots of other stuff she tends to let loose when I get in a bind and she forgets that I'm not 14 anymore. But since I'm 1000+ miles away, my situation's gotta be little abstract to her, so it's forgivable.

My parents are unusual...they'll buy us massive toolkits and steam cleaners and entire flippin' living room sets for wedding gifts without thinking twice, but getting them to help us, say, not get fucking evicted is like asking to help hide a body. Bah.

Anyway. It's strongly suggested that you fire up the p2p client of your choice and grab the track "Tetra-Sync" from Squarepusher's new album "Ultravisitor". The album as a whole is kinda meh, but this track is just phenomenal. It's about 9 minutes long, and includes some very cool drum and 303 programming, good live percussion, and a couple of 2-minute-long bass freakouts that would make Les Claypool cry. Considering that it's all written, produced, and performed by one guy, the sheer amount of musicianship on display here is pretty impressive.
Current Mood: restless
Current Music: That 70's Show theme song
