I can't remember who once told me that eating cheese before bed gives you weird, vivid dreams, but I think I proved it true last night. I was reeeeeally hungry just as I was getting into bed (my fault for having a small dinner, admittedly), and... so I ate a small slice of the really tasty comte we have in the fridge. Yeah. I don't remember much of the dream, but I remember that Abe Sapien and Sarah Jane Smith were hanging out together, and that later on my friends and I were trying to go to a movie, and [livejournal.com profile] sigelphoenix brought Theoden (er... my cat, not the King of Rohan) along. And I was worried about losing him in the theater. Now that I think of it, it could hardly have been less weird if it really had been King Theoden... either way it was all pretty strange.

Still desperately behind on all my writing projects, still stuck halfway through another drawing project, and still really wishing I'd never discovered Photoshop online tutorials, because they suck my life away. I'm working on a wallpaper with clockwork gears right now, and it's tedious beyond belief, but I can't seem to make myself stop (in part because the dratted thing actually looks really cool).

Also, woe and alas, I managed to forget both the new audio books that I borrowed from [livejournal.com profile] maymargaret last night, and am pretty much out of music that I haven't listened to ten billion times here at work. I'm booooooored. Coding is not fun with nothing to listen to while I do it! And I've already listened to all my podcasts for the week, and NPR is being boring, and am sick of the selection of music on my mp3 player. I'll stop my whining, now. But boo.

Tomorrow I will refill my travelling CD case with stuff I haven't listened to in a while, and I will not forget those blasted audio books! Love's Labours Lost and Cymbeline - a whole six hours of entertainment for tomorrow!

...And I just had to take a call because I forgot to log myself out of the phone when I went on lunch. Hellfire. The first fricking call I've gotten all day, and it has to come when I'm on lunch...

I'm sorry I tried to kidnap your cat and take him to the movies? XD

He seemed happy to be along with everybody, if that helps. XD

Well, it's good that you came along, because at least yours is helpful. Mine, which is only helpful if it is pointing out something new, is pointing out that hopefully-new thing by asking about it in a way that would only make sense to one if they already knew what it was. Or possibly if it's the first result in Google, but since I haven't tried, I shouldn't assume that it is. So, without yours, mine could very potentially be completely unhelpful. *Goes to take a class in simplifying sentences.*

...While all of that makes sense, I admit, I laughed a bit.

And hey, you need to simplify sentences--half the time, I type in some strange internet jargon that sometimes even leaves out whole verbs!

Lol. You guys are awesome.

And yes, I have been listening to Pandora a little but... but I've only got one station "trained" on it, so I get bored of that music, too. :P Fortunately, NPR updates its content every day at 6pm EST, so I've got new stuff to listen to from them, at least!

In that case, you may want to try Launchcast from Yahoo. It's not nearly as cool* as Pandora, but it's better at playing new stuff that you'll likely enjoy without as much training. I remember just rating some genres and a few songs made 95% of the music stuff I liked.

* Cool in the technically-impressive geeky-stylish sense, not the varsity football sense.

For when you forget musics, have you looked into Pandora and the like?

I've played with Pandora a little bit, but I've only got one station going, so... it's not that interesting. I need to work on that. :D
