I don't know where all this energy came from...

...but this weekend I've been sort of bouncing off the walls, full of energy and excitement and fun! (Which, let me tell you, hasn't happened in longer than I can remember.)

( overly excited babble about how much I enjoyed my weekend! kind of just for posterity... )

So basically TL;DR: everything was cinnamon schnapps and nothing hurt (including my busted knee) and THIS WAS ME ALL WEEKEND:



OMG I don't want to have to go to work tomorrowwwwwwwwww. T_T

ETA: Awesome thing I can't believe I forgot to note was that when we were walking to the car on Sunday morning we passed some guy who had just come out onto the front stoop of his building and I noticed he was wearing a The Sword band tee. I wanted to say something, and hesitated for a moment, but I was kind of like, well fuck it, I'm happy, it's sunny, I'm SO in the mood to go to a concert and I'm SO looking forward to The Sword show in September-- so I said, "Hey, are you going to see them in September?" He was surprised and like, "what?" "The Sword -- your shirt..." "Oh! When are they playing?" "In September, with Kyuss!" "I didn't know! That's awesome, I missed the one that they rescheduled last year!" "Oh man, that one was so good, sorry you missed it! Hope to see you in September, then!"

The whole exchange put a huge smile on my face. I think AJ possibly thought I was adorable like a child. Hee.

day 26 - a song that you can play on an instrument

So let me preface this by saying, I AM NOT MUSICALLY INCLINED. Probably more through lack of exposure and instruction than natural lack of ability. I took violin lessons for like 2 seconds when I was 9, but I'm pretty sure I was more interested in running around wild after school than I ever was in practicing.

BUT. I can play Kansas' Carry On Wayward Son on Guitar (Hero or Rock Band). Does that count? ^_~ I mean, I can actually play a lot of other songs on GH or RB too, but THIS SONG was the one that caused me to buy GH2 in the first place -- I love this song SO MUCH; it was my first cell ringtone for the longest time.... way back in the times of monophonic ringtones. That one is still my favorite ringtone-- I wish I could find it again. T_T

There is just nothing in the world like Southern Rock.

It bugs the hell out of me, though, when people call it "Carry On MY Wayward Son". (Even if I realize it's really NBD. STILL.)

Fave lines: masquerading as a man with a reason / my charade is the event of the season / and if I claim to be a wise man / it surely means that I don't know

List of all days.
