I'm not going to follow you like some nervous poodle.

1. I am going to write a story called Fire on the Exhale, which is a shooting reference for those who don't spend too much time watching the Military Channel.

2. I don't think I'm doing [livejournal.com profile] yuletide this year, which will be the first year since it started that I haven't signed up, but I just don't have it in me. I am kind of sad about this, but I have to prioritize.

3. Dear White Collar,

The idea is that the shows are supposed to get BETTER as you go along, not worse. Each episode from the pilot has gotten progressively less interesting and more bland. Despite popular belief, you cannot hold my interest on looks alone. Looks are meant to enhance, like a very nice hat, they cannot be the sole substance. Fail, man. You also can't magically exchange one minority for another and not expect anybody to notice.

You are on notice. Clean up your act or we're over.

No love,
X

This once again leaves me with ZERO shows until January 12. Oh my god, Cooper and Ben and Lydia hurry up.

4. I am looking for music. I'm interested in trying out anything by Colin Hay (I have waiting for my real life to begin and I just don't think I'll ever get over losing you) and Iron & Wine (I have Sodom, South Georgia, AB's Song, Flightless Bird, and a few others) so, if you have a favorite, please feel free to share it!

I am also looking for Big Brovaz 'Favourite Things', New Edition's Heart Break album, and the Double CD of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong.

I am also looking for a single, straight, hotass, Recon Marine between the ages of 28 and 35, with a brain between his ears, at least one good moral, and who doesn't mind Johnny Cash, Radiohead, Ella Fitzgerald and The Roots on rotation. [Edited for explicit sex acts] Oh, and he needs to be male.

Hey, everybody has to have goals in life.

RE White Collar: YES! While I did squee about the OT3 scene at the dinner table, the replacement FBI was pretty annoying with her bland acting, especially with the jealousy bit. WC, YOU ARE ON NOTICE. Also, I *so* want Diana back!

Hee! I love that military term.

As for I&W, I love Evening on the Ground (Lilith's Song) and Jezebel (from the album Woman King, Love Vigilantes (from Around The Well) and Naked As We Came (from Our Endless Numbered Days). If you don't have them, tell me! I'll upload them for you as all of my I&W albums are at home. Oh, have you heard I&W and Calexico covering Wild Horses by Rolling Stones? Awesome!

I have some songs uploaded for you to try out here (http://www.box.net/shared/4pn4vtm7q0). Some of the songs are slow ones while others are rock-ishly loud.

Here's more slow songs I had lying in my box net account.
Sia - Academia (http://www.box.net/shared/l3gdj5omuz)
How can you not find lyrics like this awesome?
I’m a binary code that you cracked long ago
But to you I’m just a novel that you wish you’d never wrote


Regina Spektor - Samson (http://www.box.net/shared/p78uezpp31)
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first


A Fine Frenzy - Almost Lover (http://www.box.net/shared/2h6ggeyub1)
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

We want Diana! We Want Diana! Also, I have the Sia and absolutely love Regina Spektor and thusly already have Samson, but thank you! I will check out the other songs.

Can we have a petition to bring her back? :( Or at least a better actress? Anyway, I heard that the actress playing Diana got a better offer on an established show and at that time, White Collar wasn't a confirmed show yet.

It is not fair to be all awesome in the beginning and then just fall off. This is like a bad dating experience. He tells you he's brilliant and has a place over looking the water. Turns out he's average and has a place overlooking a water tower.

I love this analogy so much!

I'm always not sure who has heard of the artists I recommend before as I've just discovered them recently this year (because of fanmixes, YAY!). Although it makes me happy to know others appreciate them too! Tell me if you like them. I have similar songs/artists that I would love to recommend to everyone. :D

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. SADNESS! But I do understand the power of a regular paycheck.
