discolé monade

sort of. i have to prep a bunch of stuff.

will be spending his final days in hospice, due to long term addiction problems. he is only 56. this is so sad. one of my favorites.

well, first this and then, people thought it would ^really^ tie in that "self reliance", "end of the world" theme ^they^ had going this year (?) you know...instead of going home? or not go at all ?

that's actually a good song. ^

i would think, however, it's easier for association purposes. technically, those little toys would be in the metallophone (sp) family

wood v metal

i wasn't a huge fan, but always seemed to be playing at the parties, many moons ago. "nobody likes jimmy buffett except frat boys, and alcoholic chicks from the south" eric theodore cartman

i started to learn snare, but eventually, i just stuck to all the other percussion. i remember not really liking the christmas orchestra stuff, because chimes have a SHIT ton of micro solos. and all the play time the ole glockenspeil gets. ugh. i just KNEW i'd be the person to hit TOO hard, and the mallet go flying into the horn section, or some shit. luckily, i came out unscathed.

aw. look at that beatiful gato.

in my world, it's already 'fall'.

you have no idea. i was in percussion. this particular number called for the xylophone. that mf is hAF. and 1st year we didn't have the harness to lay them down, so we carried them notebook style.

we played this for marching band.

i hope i didn't come off as snippy. it's just i've seen SO many videos, or pics of people bringing the fawn to their porch, and i'm like "NOOOOO!!"

lost power for about 9 hours. woke up to blue skies and beautiful weather... and i had already cancelled the market. *sigh* not a lot of damage, at all. some broken limbs that had to come down.

of rain watching, and elevation excercises ; ] just a lot of rain. not even heavy winds. i guess once it touched down, that whole 'it's at the farthest reachest of the troposphere' or whatever, sputtered out. but lights are blinking. no bueno.

i think, given the atmosphere around the main actor, i'm going to pass (1) there is a whole entire series that went nine entire seasons, and yet, couldn't use the guy playing 'flash' for the movie. (2) never actually thought 'flash' deserved a movie *see (2) , if ANYONE deserved a movie, it would have been not flash. (3) also, i always thought 'gambit' deserved a movie, with taylor kitsch.
