Played Rock Band 3 last night with my ladies. Now I’ve got a plethera of rock running through my head today, from “Dead End Friends” to “Warrior’s Call” to “Whip It” :D
The band I play in is called “Holy Retribution” - I’m the bass player. My Rock Band songs are “3’s and 7’s” by Queens of the Stone Age,...

wafflesvonwaffletron asked: so much sass
I want to know YOUR answers to these.
me-myself-and-kevin:
1. What’s your quirkiest trait? My ability to quote movies, especially Disney ones. And the fact that I know mass amounts of movie trivia (who played in what, who voiced which character, behind-the-scenes stuff, etc.).
2. What are your 3 favorite scents? One of my favorite ways to keep memories is by scent, and if I’ve been at someone’s house for a while, or if...

Playing “Twilight Princess” again…for the umpteenth time.
I seriously love the heck out of this game. I’ve heard a lot of Zelda fans didn’t like it, ranging from “meh” to foaming-at-the-mouth rage against it. I don’t know what the deal is, personally. I enjoy it for the time it was made, for the story line, and for the all-out creative design that...
It’s interesting how the right song comes on at the right moment, you know?
My Aunt Ellie & Uncle Jim are going through a hard time right now - nothing marital, definitely. Struggles with finding a job, a place to stay, etc. She’s been unloading on me via texting. God knows how hard they’ve worked, and how often people have abused them and taken them for granted. They feel...

The Soundtrack of My Childhood
‘86 baby right here.
I went through a ton of my music recently and realized that a lot of it stems from my childhood, and it helped shape me into who I am today.
These are some of the top songs that I associate with my childhood - maybe you’ll have some nostalgia from them, too.
1. Bullfrogs & Butterflies (Barry McGuire) - we always played it in the car, and the daycare I was in...

Aw thanks - I love smiling and laughing, and I actually strained muscles at the base of my head from laughing so much on this trip.
I have NEVER been this drastically affected by saying goodbye/leaving my extended family; it’s always been sad whenever I’ve...

Ol' Beans, Part 2
Back from California.
I’m dog-tired and sporting lobster shoulders from a lack of sunscreen.
But my heart is full of so many things right now. Love is the chief feeling - I love my extended family so fiercely it hurts every time I have to leave. That love is a brightly burning torch that won’t ever go out.
The other feeling is a mixture of sadness and longing. I haven’t felt...

Cali Trip: Ol' Beans
Guys, I love my Uncle Ben (or as my Uncle George calls him: “Beans”) SO freakin’ much. And when my parents & I finally pulled up to his house and got out of the car, I ran straight into his arms & nearly cried. I hadn’t seen him in over two years, and since then he’d been in a deadly motorcycle accident that took away his beautiful bass voice - now he sounds...

So my dream last night consisted of my family and I going to an odd wax/antique museum filled with all sorts of neat and mysterious things.
The proprietor of said establishment? Why, the first Doctor Who, of course. When I mentioned to him that I would love to work at such a place, he lit up and proceeded to show me around the entire compound, even through the places that were being remodeled....
Packing for Cali Road Trip
I always pack late the night before a trip. It’s mostly because I’m almost too excited to sleep! :D

Funny Moment of the Day
So I’m sitting and listening to my online playlist on headphones while in my dad’s classroom.
All of the kids are milling about, asking for help on papers, etc. And randomly some of them start dancing around a bit - just here and there, for no reason. They’re kids - they don’t need a reason to bounce or dance around.
Funny part is that “Moves Like Jagger” just...

The Pluses of Working in Theatre
You never have to buy t-shirts ever again. I’m now a proud owner of a bright orange tie-dye Godspell shirt.
And the potential opportunity to co-teach/direct kid’s theatre this summer?

Ecce Homo - Behold the Man: An Easter Story
Author’s Note:
A while back, I was inspired to write a resurrection story from the message I heard in church. The guest speaker had made an emphasis on the unnamed person in the Bible who had shown mercy by lifted the sponge of sour wine to the lips of Jesus on the cross. That gave me the idea of writing this short story from the fictitious viewpoint of a common centurion soldier, who held...
