todayy

Things That Have Happened Today in No Particular Order:
- Coming to school today, having awful time, late already. In our locker, (me and H's locker) we have a little white board. She had written an arrow to a picture of the Beatles below it with 'RINGO!' sideways pointing to Ringo. It made my day. :D
- Got my new glasses. I like them. Seeing sharply, very nice.
- apparently also breaking my ipod oh shit shit shit... Woah. I was trying to extract files to Xavier's notes files (Xavier is my ipod) and it froze so I tried to close it and THEN THE DESKTOP DISAPEARED and so I tried to minimize everything to find anything out and THAT WAS ABAD IDEA and then so I opened up ctrl-alt-dlt and double-clicked itunes and opened that up, ejected my ipod, and then shut down the computer and now all is well...hopefully.
- okay related to that thing that just happened, I found a thing where you can put books on itunes so I've got Sense and Sensibility on there (just testing it out really) and THEN I got all the free bits of With Strings Attached, the fantasy epic Beatles fanfiction novel and am trying to put it on there when it froze my computer. Totes worth it though. I love With Strings Attached. Trying again.
- Blake gave me a guitar pick to use on my ukulele. Makes it twang funny. Need a light pick, I think, since this was Blake's he used on his guitar or his bass guitar..
- watched the Office and Andy playing Rainbow Connection on the banjo. Now want to play Rainbow Connection on ukulele. Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what's on the other siiide...
- ugh, my glasses are freaking me out sometime..
- the first 21 chapters of With Strings Attached on now on my ipod. YAYYAY. When I finish reading these I'll pay the 3 bucks to download the whole thing off the internet...
- Beatles BOOTLEGS. awesomnesss.
i'm shaking, better be off to bed
but not before getting really obsessed with these beatlegs. grr.

things i have learned about ipods

1. They are tricky bastards. What's that? Want to choose what songs go on your iPod? NOT GONNA HAPPEN. Thanks for automatically putting all the junk I don't want on there on there.
2. It wants legality. So if you've spent a few days downloading videos off of youtube and then planning to put them on your iPod, it's not going to happen very easily. But it works. Somehow. I haven't got it figured out yet...
3. Apparently if you leave it on your bed without turning it off and assuming it will shut itself off eventually, it will not.
4. It won't replay an album automatically. So if the Nerf Herder album has played itself through, it is not going to start back at the beginning. You have to do that one by yourself.

I am thinking about downloading the Beatles albums off of youtube, 'cept where I really kinda WANT them, but I don't know if they'll sync to my iPod, whether it be on this computer or the one at home.
AND I need new musics. To listen to. I'm thinking about some Bruce Springsteen, but does anyone have any more suggestions for rock 'n roll music that's good?

i'm sure i mentioned this

About how much I friggin love Ringo Starr and I've no idea why. I was just watching the Beatles Anthology and like, he's Ringo. And awesome. And I love George and Paul and John (to an extent, ha, no jk, he's awesome but I think he stopped eating&shaving&bathing around 1970, yeh?) but he's Ringo and also I just bought his first album. Called RINGO. From iTunes. I'm not sure I like buying music from iTunes, for one cos it's so easy and for another because I don't get the little booklet with the CD which usually has some hilariousness or something with it. It's good for buying things RIGHT NOW and just one song but for albums I think I'll stick to by CDs.
And Ringo Starr's band? Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band. Ahah. Gotta love him.

eta: I got Yellow Submarine on my iPod! Yes! Tomorrow, I'll try to get Help! and Very Potter Musical.

this is too easy

Today was a good day. I shall explain:
I slept well. I know I had some sort of dream, it was pleasant and no one was savagely eaten by bears (which happened in my dream on Monday, it was fucking terrifying, but not just for that reason) and my mom called me at 7:40 and told me to go to school. I wasn't late.

I looked good. I mean sometimes I look fine and sometimes I look awful and sometimes I look alright but damn, I looked good today. So I wore my black combat boots and black pants and my 'City Built on Rock and Roll' shirt, which is also black (natch), and wore my hair with some of it clipped back (so i could BREATHE) and black eyeliner. Shit. No joke, I felt & looked damn fine. Of course, stepping out into the sun was hell, since it's like 98 here, and the boots paired with the socks that slip off my heels was no good idea-since about 5th hour I realized I had blisters on my heels from the shoe rubbing against it. STILL.

I was just kind of happy- weirdly. Well, after lunch (which was a muffin and some pain killers, ha). And today Super Wal-Mart opened here and I was NOT planning on going but Heather called to bring me along and I figured we might as well get it over with. So I had to change into blue shorts and my shirt with the TARDIS on it since it's grey.

I got a NERF SWORD. At Super Wal-Mart. And then me and Heather battled them outside of Wal-Mart and we've got a duel set tomorrow after school at the park. Aha!

THE POST CAME. Well. THE MAIL. HERE'S THE MAIL IT NEEVER FAILS...yeh, you get the idea. ANYWAY. I had rushed home during lunch to get pills and get back in time for pizza at the SPAM meeting (no pizza left, aw) but I was in a terrible mood, I felt like shit and it was so hot, so I was arhh mail BUT I got my IPOD and my PAYCHECK YAYY. And I've mostly figured this iPod thing out. For one thing it's fugging huge. Like, it's heavy and rather large and it's 80 gb and refurbished- at Super Wal-Mart Heather was like this close to buying an iPod for herself and I was like, girl shop ONLINE for it, like I did, and then she mocked my iPod for being large and 80 gb while the one we saw at the store was small and 120. Like wha.

I'm putting Help! and A Hard Day's Night on my iPod and I'm downloading Yellow Submarine so I can put that on there, too. Oh, and A Very Potter Musical. And I downloaded George Harrison's song When We Was Fab because it keeps getting stuck in my head. The keyboard bit is catchy. Now I'm looking for All Of My Love by Led Zep cos it's I like it. or just a Led Zep album I think I'll go with. Yeah. Mothership. I am, apparently, going to waste all my money on iTunes, it's deceptively simple to buy music. AH! See? Just spent like 13 bucks. On music. Whatthehell. Okay, well it was 24 songs. Mhmm. Better.

Whenever I see the George Harrison album art in my iTunes library, I go "GEORGE!". Always. Just like whenever I see a picture of Ringo I go, 'oh ringo'. I like Ringo the best cus he's the only Beatles I'm absolutely frigging positive that's alive, oh ha ha ha. And his laugh. :D
