my friend seth left me a comment on facebook today that said that [since it's my 21st birthday WOOT].
i left him one back that basically said thank you for not making my day completely monotonous and saying happy birthday just like everyone else. when i woke up this morning i already had a billion comments that said "happy birthday!". it's nice and all. i like knowing that people care enough to say it... but it's just boring. but whatever. i was just very pleased that he did that. i don't know if that was what he meant to do, but it made my day that much better.
we had SO much fun this night.
i know it's a little late, but i just found these...courtesy of allen.

What movie did you expect would be terrible, but was actually really good?

Show us your favorite local band.
Submitted by Soup.
there are a lot of bands from the area i'm from. they are all either grind metal, hardcore, or punk though, and that's not my thing. there is one pop rock band called sequoyah prep school (if you actually go to click that link, you should watch "video blog #4", you get to see me bust my ass.), but that's not my thing either (even though my boyfriend happens to be in that band. haha. but none of them would ever purchase their cd's if it wasn't their band, b/c it's not really their thing either. they just enjoy playing together.) but i guess i honestly would have to say they are my favorite band from around here. and i only say that b/c i know them well and they are all really cool people. other than them, i like the moultrie killer, through the eyes of the dead, and something about vampires and sluts [which are myrtle beach which is about an hour & a half away, but i personally consider that local], although i rarely listen to them, i just go see them when they have shows here in town. even though i don't like metal, i enjoy them.
but by the names on this flyer, you can tell that they are mostly hardcore/metal bands...
btw: the cootie hut (in case you were wondering from the flyer) is the venue in my town. it's a legion hut by the airport. pretty dumb there because all the silly punk kids fight all the time. blah. explanation in video form here:

so i just made a new last.fm account.
i forgot i had one a few years ago and when i went to log in, i couldn't even remember the login.
so i decided i would try to keep up with a new one.
i doubt i will.
wombaticle is my username.
so if you would like to be my friend... please do, i like the company.
for the past few days... we've been helping my boyfriend's father move into his new house. his wife [nancy] has been freaking out about every little detail. and since her daughter hasn't been around, she has used me for emotional support and protector of her mother's expensive china. my boyfriend and his best friend west have been moving all of the furniture peice by peice and it's been annoying to say the least, mostly because of the fact that nancy doesn't want the boys around her nice things while they're moving... and that means i have to be up their asses making sure they don't fuck anything up, and the fact that they don't listen to me doesn't help so i just try to keep my mouth shut. if anything it makes it worse because johnnie is a smart ass to me when i give him advice sometimes. "fuck nancy", is what he says. but whatever. i've had fun despite being in a crabby mood today. and johnnie's dad buys us food and beer for working for him aside from the money he actually pays us. so i guess i have no room to bitch.
on a good note... our dear friends gabe, kevin, and jay came this weekend to record with tony and carmen for their live folk project. sadly enough our energetic friend daily tolliver couldn't come due to the fact that he's 16 [the coolest effing sixteen year old EVER mind you] and plays upright bass in his high school band and got caught up with that this weekend. he brings the calamity along with him. it's still here with the other boys... but it's just not the same. it's so good to have these traveling kids in the house because they liven it up and it makes carmen extremely happy, which is always a welcomed addition to the house. and fyi... these kids have been trying to get together a group of people to protest war. before you say, "i've heard this a million times", you should hear some of the facts... click kevin above and listen to the music. it's very factual and easy to understand. i'm not trying to push this, just doing a friend a favor, so if you are interested, either contact me, or him. [south eastern locals mostly]... any whoooo.
other than that, tonight i'm drinking white wine, listening to jenny lewis's beautiful voice, watching johnnie, west and one of my roommates [david] play some halo 3, smoking cigarettes, waiting on my camera to charge [since there are 7 Nikons in this house and NONE of them are charged] and eventually making my way downstairs to record a little with them. i'm a little intoxicated right now so i'll go ahead and say good bye. [finally because from all of the smoke breaks, down stairs beer runs and conversations i've had whilst writing this blog it has probably taken me an hour.]
i agree. and we were very happy. read more
