Getting the most of yesterdays free pornhub premium offer No not really Trying to get out of bed. Crashed pretty hard last night. I didn't do much other than run around yesterday but my body demanded sleep. Gotta get washed up and around to work the art center again tonight. Broadway theted karoke people are back in town tonight alleays a good time. It's also the day after Valentine's and at the last one of these there was a girl..Tom waits explains how that want. We'll see. Also plan to slip by the comic shop on my way down, and not just cause the new guy there's fairly cute himself that just seems to be a theme today. First thing I have to do though is fuck with my laptop since it wants to boot only into APTIO setup. Tryed treating it like it thought the HDD/SDD were forgein last night didnt work Next course of action is probably to look inside and check the connection. Don't know why on Earth it would come loose. Didn't feel like doing that last night so I better get around to it today. Typing on my phone.
Woke up late thanks to an early morning hour long phone call. One of my business partners lives across the world and timezones are a real bitch. On the to do list today is a bunch of mundane shite. Included in that shite is a meetup with two real estate agents, which I'm lucky I didn't miss. Also have a new accounting class to attend. Onward.
Having coffee, happy, and letting my lady catch up on sleep that she didn't get on the flight over. Going to find something to do today, and go out. Since yesterday we just spent it cuddling and watching shows.
That's my favorite Tom Waits song, for reasons. Thanks for posting that. If you look at someone and they look back at you, for God's sake, talk to them. While it's true I've asked guys out a time or two, I prefer it when the guy does the asking, because I use it as a filter. There's a certain kind of guy who gets off on having women chase him, and encourages them to do so. Then when a woman makes the first move, he takes that as license to treat her badly. Or, he'll play along and keep her handy enough to make her think he likes her, but she's backburnered and discarded when he finds someone he deems "worthy" of asking out. I've been there, and it sucks. So, if they look back, speak up. Your words don't have to be perfect. Doing today: Just finished social media, and later I have a doc's appointment because I took the last dose of BP med this morning, and my refills are out. Might go to the beach later if it doesn't rain. I want to write but don't have time to get into it before leaving for the doc.
It`s a great song, probably my favorite of his as well. If I get a chance to I will. I`ll be working the event so i`m running around for most of it. We talked a minute or so last time than at the end I looked but shed slipped out to quickly. Hence why the end of that song fits so well. Need to clean up and get ready to go in a bit, after I finish watching Russel Howard. The guy in the hat is just how I imagine Dapper being like. Got the laptop to work. A screw came loose on the hard drive letting it wiggle and it got crocked. Simple enough fix.
Dapper has been talking about rural Canada, universities, lobsters, taking risks for fun and improving life... And he is a Dapper Hooligan. So...
LOL Just listened to that song, despite my reservations about Tom Waits, and it was quite good. I'll probably catch hell for saying this, but I just cannot take him seriously when he's trying to sound like Cookie Monster, so the vocals in the above were a relief.
I'm with ya. I'm not into Cookie Monster vocals, but TW has moments of songwriting brilliance, so I listen to him occasionally for that. In this case, though, I think the gravel works because it adds to the vulnerability of the lyrics and brings out the setting of the song. Late night at a bar, he's been smoking and drinking most of the night...Yeah, he's going to sound gravelly. It'd sound weird sung by someone with a perfect voice. Came back to add: It's kind of like a Billie Holiday thing. God love her, poor Billie's songs were even more poignant in her later years. I'm a Fool to Want You"? Heartbreaking lyrics, made even more so because her voice is so wrecked. (Not advocating that by the way.) I'll post it in the music thread.
debating between writing and gaming. . It's late, and i'll be going to bed soon anyways. but still.... also watching a YouTube Video of a dude that reminds me of myself as a young man and serves as a healthy reminder as to why I need to steel myself and become tough.
Cleaning the apartment. The train leaves in three hours. Today is going to be incredibly long and any delay with the plane and I won't be in England until tomorrow!
Stuck in traffic + Public transportation × angry New Yorkers = where I'm currently stuck. That New York accent really comes out when people get upset.
New Yorkshire dialect only: Well, well,..two weeks after it were published in capital[,] eight copies of my [short] story landed on door mat. 'Mat,' said wife. I rushed up cobbles and gave man in bike shop his copy. To date, the far limits of my Northern distribution network, day 1. Scotland is Monday.
