Five things: (Originally from
frito_kal, I believe, but I'm afraid I must admit to being not quite up-to-date on LJ.)
1) While I may be near-sighted enough that I need lenses or glasses to even read a book, my night vision is exceptional.
2) I read music like most people read text.
3) I can comfortably stand with my feet turned back at a reflex angle -- I can also do it in skates (I do an awesome backwards spread eagle).
4) I have no problem speaking to strangers or in front of large groups. I talk to people standing beside me in line, whomever happens to sit down in the desks around me, random people I cross the street with... I'm the crazy girl who sits beside you on the bus and won't shut up.
5) I draw really nice three dimensional graphs and planes. I *enjoy* drawing them with all sorts of pretty-coloured pens.
Other things:
I was looking for a Will picture in the Alias promo photos.
He's not there.
We know he survived the finale, I've seen caps of him from the first few eps, but he's not in the cast photo. He's been replaced by Spy-Skipper.
If Cooper and Alias are parting ways, Alias and I may have to do the same.
(Oh, come *on.* I'm not that obsessive. It's just that with The Ring, I can already tell that the UST I hated so much is going to return. And be worse. And I don't think I can take an entire hour of Syd and Vaughn angsting and Spy-Skipper flashing her ring if I don't have Will.)
The icon? New icon. I'd had my other LotR one for almost a year and a half, and although I loved it, it was time for a change. The caption is from the new Nickleback song.
I wasn't a huge fan of the last album. It was played to death by stations trying to meet their CanCon requirements without having to promote artists less established.
This song, though... Have you ever had a song that whenever you heard it, you just had to stop and *listen?*
How the hell did we wind up like this
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables
I wish you'd unclench your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been too much of this
Dont think its too late
Nothin's wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will
Some day, some how
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Some day, some how
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
Well I hoped that since we're here anyway
We could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up stringing
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Let's rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a hollywood horror
Nothing's wrong
just as long as
you know that some day I will
Some day, some how
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Some day, some how
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)

Date: 2003-09-29 09:44 am (UTC)I'm afraid my first exposure to them was through a Big Shiny Tunes album, but I thought that that track was pretty cool. (Hey, keep in mind that when they came out, I was more of an age to listen to what was played on the radio...)
"Leader of Men" is an awesome song.
I want Will back.
