I’m Hearing: Disturbed - Darkness

Wow, this song is surprising. It’s gentle, slow, and ballad-like…quite the opposite of what you might expect from Disturbed given lyrics like "Liberate your mind, you motherfucker, you’re so narrow-minded, so narrow-minded!!!" Heh.

What a week it’s been. I was gone Mon and Tues to the conference. Then Wednesday night Will (jetfuel) came to visit. We had some Chinese food then played DDR for hours. By the end of the night the up arrow on Jon’s pad was dead, and the left and X on mine were shot. So Jon decided it was time to hack apart his, and we rebuilt it from the ground up, mounting it on foam core. It is the most ghetto fabulous pad I’ve ever seen, but it works better than it ever did. We may hack mine to pieces tonight since my new Ignition 2.0 pad arrived today.

And in less exciting news…after that night of fun, I was ill yesterday. I wasn’t sick to my stomach or stuffed up or anything, mostly my body was just extremely weak. I was very light headed and only felt like sleeping. So I took the day off from work and slept most of the day. It was frustrating because I had a ton of stuff that I could have been doing. I did try to read for awhile, and also tried 3 different games, but I died in all of them, so it was no fun. Brian came over in the evening and we watched some Dead Zone and a bit of FLCL. I went to bed reasonably early after me and the roomies discussed how to pay our outrageously high energy bill. At any rate, I’m feeling about 200% better today but I’m still feeling a bit weak.

I guess that’s about it. Just….tired. This weekend could not have arrived soon enough. Next weekend is going to be a big one: Silent Hill 3 comes out, and the art show opens. Whee.
