Do you like:

• Animal Collective


• Depeche Mode

You should listen to this then.





"Odd Blood" by Yeasayer

Hey musicians out there, do any of you know a good free software or relatively cheap for making noise and screwing with it? Kind of like a digital circuit bender engine? Let me know.

Took me long enough to post this. damarukoyama drew this for me when I came home from having my tonsils out.

So, in the republican response McDonnel said: "Most Americans do not want to turn over the best medical care system in the world to the federal government." Um Bob... We don't have the best healthcare system in the world. We're actually 37th on the list... right below Costa Rica and above Slovenia. So I guess it sucks... to be France (they have the best)?

So I'm listening to the Brit Box once again, and I just have to say: The La's version of "There She Goes" is so much better than the Six Pence None The Richer version.

The Hot Rats - Turn Ons




Ok, Supergrass lead singer Gaz Coombes has come out with a solo record under the moniker The Hot Rats (It's a Zapa reference incase you didn't know). Anyways, Turn Ons is a cover album. It's really incredible what he does with all these songs. Check the list below:

I can't stand it(Velvet Underground)
Big Sky(Kinks)
The Crystal Ship(The Doors)
(You gotta) Fightfor your right (to party!)(Beastie Boys)
Damaged goods(Gang of Four)
Love is the drug(Roxy Musix
Bike(Pink Floyd)
Pump it up(Elvis Costello)
The Lovecats(The Cure)
Queen Bitch(David Bowie)
E.M.I.(The Sex Pistols)
Up the junction(Squeeze)

So Duff Goldman of "Ace of Cakes" is in a band. This band is called soihadto. Pretty good actually, like instrumental indie rock ala "do make say think" or "explosions in the sky." Anyways, they're coming at the end of the month to Chicago. I'm so going to rape him.

My end of the year music list. Jeebus, took me long enough.

So I said to myself, lets do something fun. So I decided I would bake, I <3 cooking. I went through my kitchen to see what I had. Well, it was the basics... real basic. I came to the realization to make everything for a "Puff Pastry Apple Raisin Strudel" and also I'd make my own puff pastry dough from scratch. Ugh, that was a stupid idea on my part. I had no idea how involved puff pastry dough was to make.


So after two nights of rolling and refrigeration, here I am. I just made the strudel and put it in the oven. I went to check/rotate it after 20min, and was amazed by what I saw: the crust has rose and is becoming flaky and delicious. I expected the thing to just fall apart. The real test will be when I cut into it.

I CAN NEVER UNSEE YOU!!! ( I hate you rule 34. MST3K bastardization ahead... )

Good jeebus. I just had a steak sandwich, onions rings, and cheesecake. Goodbye Liquid Diet!

I'm so getting stir crazy!

So last night, my throat kept bleeding on and off (it was the other side this time). ( Cut for length, gore, asshole EMTs, and a charming ENT )

For those of you who haven't heard, I had my tonsils out on the second. I was staying out with my parents while I recovered. So last night I finally returned to the city. It was so great to see damarukoyama again. We spent a nice evening together. Before bed, we decided to shower. While in their, I coughed up a blood-clot from the back of my throat. Then, blood literally started pouring out of my mouth! I was hunched over the sink, naked and wet, trying not to choke on my own blood.


       damarukoyama luckily remained calm and called my parents. Neither of us have cars down here and we didn't know where the closest hospital was. We ended up calling 911 and paramedics had to come and pick me up. The bleeding lasted for around 10 to 15 minutes, and by the time the ambulance arrived the bleeding had stopped. Something was hanging down the back of my throat though (weather it was another blood clot or a flap of skin I don't know). The paramedics were very cool and took us to Swedish Covenant hospital. I felt like I was gonna pass out for a while. Then my parents showed up and I felt a lot better.


       So we waited, and waited, and waited for a while. While waiting, I actually swallowed whatever it was hanging down my throat, lol. The doc said that she really couldn't do anything and told me that if the bleeding started again to try and use ice to stop it. If that didn't work, she said to come back in. They took some blood and I was slightly on the anemic side, but not enough to need a transfusion. So my parents took damarukoyama and I back to the apartment, and made sure I was ok. It was a really big ordeal over nothing pretty much, but scary as hell none the less. I have never seen that much blood come out of me at one time. I mean, my doc said that if blood started pouring out of my mouth, to go to an er. So that's exactly what i did. damarukoyama is staying home and taking care of me today, and I thank him so much for that. He really is the best bf ever.

Can anyone recommend a book on wine for a beginner who already knows a little bit? I'm doing some Christmas shopping. (I'm looking at you Duncan!)

I don't know if I'm dying to see this or want to run away in horror!

Essentially this doc joins three people together by removing their teeth and sewing them together mouth to anus to form a human centipede type thing. So weird.
Wikipedia Page on it.

I, once again, am dedicating something of horrible/furry/pornagraphic nature to perro... just because. Enjoi!
