do you remember HumanBeans? little bean shaped plush toys? i vaguely remembered them today. thought i would share - creepy.

if i am scheduled for compliance at Whal-Merde for April 24th, i will be a very unhappy girl. i have not been to a tori concert since 2000 - i would be loathe to miss this one for work. i tell you, loathe. she is still a favorite, yes, and anticipate purchasing her new album by this weekend.

DavidByrne last night was amazing! toward the end of the concert the ExtraAction MarchingBand came out - never would i have expected so much T&A at a Byrne show. if you can, imagine please dirty/naughty cheerleaders with tiny rhinestone bikinis shaking the booty behind and around DavidB while the band played. what a strange gothy/punk/carnival marching band. it was amazing to say the least. add that on to the end of an already great concert and you have a spectacular fantastical evening. i very much would like to be an ExtraAction-ette, oh yes... or at least take the second from the left out for sushi... a possibility of sorts as they hail from Oakland, CA.
shhh... let me dream, will ya?

a la fuzzycoffeebean 's journal: What Obsolete Skill am I?:

You are 'regularly metric verse'. This can take
many forms, including heroic couplets, blank
verse, and other iambic pentameters, for
example. It has not been used much since the
nineteenth century; modern poets tend to prefer
rhyme without meter, or even poetry with
neither rhyme nor meter.

You appreciate the beautiful things in life--the
joy of music, the color of leaves falling, the
rhythm of a heartbeat. You see life itself as
a series of little poems. The result (or is it
the cause?) is that you are pensive and often
melancholy. You enjoy the company of other
people, but they find you unexcitable and
depressing. Your problem is that regularly
metric verse has been obsolete for a long time.
