The (fannish) things I've done with my (unexpected) free time.

So I was trying to get to sleep EARLY (midnight) since I had to wake up at the CRACK OF DAWN (7:30am) in order to meet Juliet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art at 8:45. They open at 9:30 and really, it's a good thing we got there when we did because by the time the line started moving it stretched down the block and doubled back a few times. Haha, if I felt left out and missing Otakon this past weekend, this line certainly made me feel like I was there for a little while.

Anyway, I was trying to get to sleep early, but really I should know better by now that I just can't. Instead I customized my screensaver and proceeded to take a few screencaps to make into a gif. (Yes, I'm we know I'm obsessed already, this is old news.)



And now for the few additional A Softer World Remixes I've done since I last posted. The last one was done for @15dozentimes; it's totally my favorite, and not it's not even one I'd ever have thought of/chosen to do myself. So yeah, pass any requests my way. These are fun and ridiculously easy to do with my somewhat limited skills. =D












This is totally random, but I somehow naturally associate Avenged Sevenfold and Panic! At the Disco. This is really interesting because I was just recently thinking I should listen to more AX7 (while listening to P!ATD).... and then I realized that I did the same back in 2006 when I first heard them both.

I know it's just a pipe dream, but-- what I'd give for P!ATD's next album to have a harder sound. *__* (Jesus fuck, Spencer Smith would be even hotter and sweatier than he already is...?!)

Hey! Sorry, this reply is SUPER LATE but I just wanted to tell you your comment was a lot of help! I did end up going on Saturday, got there before 8:30 and we were already lined up past the Southern end of the building. 8| But the wait was definitely worth it, the exhibit was AMAZING.

Hm, in terms of the music I like, I like a lot of different kinds of music, but I'm extremely picky about what in each type. XD XD For example, I love the Stones, David Bowie, and the Velvet Underground, but I'm sort of meh oh the Beatles actually, as well as the Who. I listen to some punk, but I only love Patti Smith. I also like some indie artists like the Decemberists (but only some of their albums XD). I don't listen to a ton of pop music per se....and I don't like much of anything from the 80s. =_= I'm so picky!

Actually, I'm not sure I'd really love P!ATD just from what you've told me, but I would definitely give it a listen first before I came to any conclusions. I think I'm going to download try out the albums...probably in the order they were released. Thanks so much for the information! AGAIN, YOU ARE SO HELPFUL <3

Oh, so glad you got to see the McQueen exhibit and that my response was actually of help! =D

I totally understand being picky.... and having unpopular opinions on music. =D That Japanese band that I love so much (Buck-Tick) is another band whose... subgenre, I guess... changes from album to album and it's often difficult to rec them to people because I'm never sure which album to rec to start with or whether people will have enough patience to try out more than one. So it's cool that you're going to try them out! =D
