wishing, roots, and everything else- mostly everything else. definitely not pink floyd. sorry pink wherever you are.
I'm not running around with a stun gun and a bubble on my head (maybe I should), but I do like experimental music, music music, and anything that looks/sounds like it's coming from a genuine place (even if there's something very pretentious going on on the surface). The most abstract things like love are direction-makers for good memes- that is things worth duplicating- snowball love, right? on another hand, as shown by religion, the best memes aren't necessarily the nicest ones.
Hey You, ...a long time ago ~ hasn't it been? -This last week - on a dark and rainy night - I slipped round B'ham searching - I had heard of open mic's ...I came upon a man - he stood outside an open door - I saw lights that twirled around - I heard a beat - inside, the music was ... -then asking - after telling - where it was my heart was - ...would he know? where would it be, that I should be going ...as I wander in my searching? He pointed down the alley way - a small way, really, from his door - ...smiling thanks, I turned to go - I heard him say - it's dry inside, warm - it's fun - again I heard a beating drum ...I asked ...what is this place? He said, "Tina, her fingers pressed upon with feelings - she spins a tune ..."
~I did, I left - to sing my songs ....but it would have been nice to see you ~ :>)
i realized what that sounded like after a friend asked worriedly what happened to her! nah she just got spayed, though it does seem a shame that it's normal for cats and dogs to undergo such things. thank you for the kind words :)

Hey. What're you doing on the 6th of February? Jinx wants a date night with you...and possibly Sweetheart of the Rodeo. It's a love triangle people would show up to see, I think.
I know it's short notice, but...well, you know. Please let me know so I can start bragging about it. xoxoM
