Well, less of a problem, more of a puzzle.

I really, really like the acoustic version of Niall Horan's 'Flicker'.



See? So, I went to buy said song (as this version did not come with my pre-order album). Found out it's a Target Exclusive. Went to the Target website, found out they REALLY want me to buy it in store... which I don't have in my small town, but is relatively near. OK, I'll get to that when I head that way.

I went to Seattle this weekend for a Fall Out Boy concert. As one does, I walk through town to the hotel and back to the train station, because I keep finding tiny things I want to stop and look at and the idea of driving in that city scares me. I passed a Target, and had plenty of time, so I popped in a bought the album. Yay, so far so good, right?


Yesterday I got a package. It was the album. The package did not come with a receipt or a company name.
There is no charge on my debit or credit cards from Target (I paid in Seattle with cash). I have no idea where this album came from.

So... any one want a free album?

An "article" on ontd_political stated "Why Lefty Women Are Scared Stiff of Right Wing Females".

Yeah. No.

I would have posted this in reply there, but am unsure of how much is lolz, and how much is sincere. And, I would prefer not to cause wank. Still...

Long, ranty )

A post, because I haven't in a month, and I wanted an excuse to use the Anderpants icon.


So, as this is a newish journal, I'm going to guess that most people reading this don't know that I'm bi-polar. My dad is as well, but I was just diagnosed in late March/early April. Now, this doesn't mean much, except that I finally have a reason for why I've had to force myself to be around people, and been all over the place emotionally for the last few years. My highs, it seems, aren't very high. They are brief and mostly have to do with racing thoughts of story plots and scenes that I can't quiet down to work on anything else. My lows, however, are low and tend to leave me in my bed, hating the world and being so tired that even getting food seems like an exorbitant amount of work. When the lows last for months on end? It is very much not conductive to getting school work done. In fact, I ended up spending a good year and a half hiding from my friends, family, and pretty much everything except for fanfiction and my cat.

tl;dr of classes and colleges inside )

So, as it wasn't that long ago (even if we've slept since then), I'm sure we all remember the 9/12 rallies. And, many of you might remember seeing Melissa Harris Lacewell on The Rachel Maddow show, talking about how odd it was trying to take a time of unity and altruism and make it into a time of hate and selfishness. Well, apparently, this is the left invoking 9/11 to Sell ObamaCare.

This is, apparently, somehow worse than invoking 9/11 to stop healthcare reform. Or anything else that Obama wants to do.


Fair warning, if you go there and read the "article", the comments are enabled on the page. And they make me sick, because of the rampant stupidity.

Cut for ranting )

Don't know how much this journal will be used, but there's a definite possibility that it might.

Watched bits and pieces of the VMA's tonight through the MTV website. Gotta say, Lady Gaga, I loved the album version of Paparazzi so much better. The whole blood thing seems like it would fit in with some of The Dresden Doll's songs much better. Although, as performance art, it was much better.

I'm not hatin' on Lady Gaga, I have her album and love it (Goddamn you Anderson Cooper for making me check it out and get addicted). Just, that was weird, which is saying something when it comes from me.

So. Hi there! I like pundits and craziness (which more often than not go hand in hand), oranges and strawberries, biology and psychology. I'm 22, taking classes at my community college, and trying desperately to find a job. I dye my hair, talk to my cat like a kid, and wander around in 40 degree weather in short sleeves. Born in Florida, I moved to Oregon as soon as I graduated high school. I sometimes miss being able to swim in the warm water of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic Ocean, but I do NOT miss the hurricanes.

I love music. My music library currently consists of almost 6500 songs.

I love reading. I read mostly fanfiction these days, but my library card still gets a work out at least once a month.


So, yeah. That's me. How about you?
