Life Through a Fisheye Lense



I waited around all day for someone to return my calls.
I hate the "people" aspect of this process.
After this is over, I'm going to spend some extensive time alone in the mountains.
This movie is killing me.

silence like the wind overtakes me.

dan deacon show!












ooh
ooh ooh
ooh.

The Man With the Shovel Is the Man I Am Going to Marry

11:05pm

I'm tired from all of this... but at least there was chocolate cake.

"if you were a warm blanket or sharp knife, than at least i would have a use for you"





today i saw tuvan throat singers.

this is the group alash.

there isn't a lot i can say about throat singing, and certainly anything i can say about it is in purely musical terms that most people wouldn't be able to understand. i can barely understand the concept myself.

it doesn't seem real.

but people can create harmonic pitches with their voice...
and in this way, it is possible to sing two notes at once.

in tuva, they have camels, yak and reindeer.
those are three of my favorite animals.
i love reindeer. i love any animal with antlers.

anyway, tuvan throat singing is actually somewhat similar to the didgeridoo.
i play the didg, despite being female and unclean and ancient spirits and curses and blah blah blah

what most people don't realize, is that the didg is actually a "vocal instrument" in that it is really just warping vowel sounds that people create with their voices. it is like a jaw harp in that aspect, it is not really an "instrument" so much as it is a vocal modifier.

so the vocalizations require to play a didg is actually very similar to throat singing, especially breath support-wise.

which is curious, because all of the members of alash smoke.

This Place Smells Like Camp and Cheese

LASER TAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!










































With beastly green team going 2/2.
Lauren slipped on some kid's blood and I took advantage of her, shooting her four times in the back.
Then we ate panda cupcakes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


So apparently someone fancies you, someone "funny."
And apparently I'm being defensive for saying "Well it wouldn't be the first."
But you shouldn't ask me.
