Race Car Ya-Yas
Oct. 19th, 2005 09:10 amI had Cake's "Frank Sinatra" in my head this morning, so I decided that Fashion Nugget was the cd of the morning. That, and Soul Coughing coming next. I've also had "Screenwriter's Blues" in my head due to the upcoming move. ;) Thus the subject line.
---------
Lots of stuff happening. For those of you who haven't heard, the transfer offer has been officially made, so it looks like we might be moving out to San Francisco at the beginning of the year. This means that a lot of moving my stuff down here (stuff that I don't sell or throw away, that is) in the next few weeks. Don't know when I'll do that, but it looks like some time next month.
Because of this, it looks like I might not have time to join NaNoWriMo again this year, but this time it's not due to work or other writing projects getting in the way. So although I might not be able to officially do NaNo, I will most likely end up trying anyway.

For those of you whom I've forgotten to add to the friends list, I have my new writing-only LJ up. My LJ user name is
die_joncswerk but the site itself will be called Scribble Diem (thanks to
camilla_anna for the suggestion!). I posted an introductory entry there this morning, so if you didn't get it and would like to be able to read it, let me know and I'll add you the flist. :)

Saw the latest commercial for Smallville. Did I see that right? Aquaman is on there??? Is he getting his own show, or is this just a cameo? And is there any reason they chose a guy who looks more like beefcake than an actor? And why does the logo for his name look like a toothpaste logo?? To paraphrase what
lynxreign said last night, I think they just jumped the shark. Or in this case, swam under it. ;)

Speaking of TV, I found myself actually liking Gilmore Girls. Not enough to go out of my way to watch it, but it's a good show to pass the time with. :)
---------
NEW DEPECHE MODE CD OUT THIS WEEK! Reviews say this is their best and darkest record since Violator, and from what I've heard of the new single, I think they're right. It's got the feel of their pre-Black Celebration stuff, but with the updated synth sounds of Ultra. It sounds promising.
Unfortunately I won't be able to go see them this year, which is annoying but I'll live. I've seen them on all the tours since Violator. It's kind of strange, really, that they're the band I've seen the most times live, and they don't put on as spectacular a show as they ought to, but I love going to see them anyway.

More soon. Gotta get back to work!
