"Goodnight sweet Hubble, and a flight of angels to sing thee to thy rest."
interesting day today
worked...sucked
sat about at a gradiaton party
went to starbucks with some peoples
went back to said party
watched a bit of the princess bride
went shopping with the previously mentioned people
got a new led zeppelin shirt while shopping with the peoples in question
decided that one of the peoples in question was most probably one of the most awesome peoples i have ever met
i won't name the senorita though
;)
*Author’s Note: The title was added in February of 2018. I no longer have any idea who the senorita in question is…I sort of wish now that I had named here in this post.*
Music: Peter Frampton - Do You Feel Like We Do

Music: Peter Frampton ~ Do You Feel Like We Do
I think i will need a "big cup o' awake when 5 am rolls around

this is worse than ususal, and i wish i knew why
ah well
time to post my 5th entry in less than an hour
pathetic, aren't i?
Music: Lyle Lovett - Church
hmmm...
do i go off and wander the countryside aimlessly, or do i go and enlist again?
they both sound like more fun than life in general right now.
where are you when i need you my friend?
Music: Dora the Explorer ~ We Did It
Wow. Serious moodswings tonight.
Crap. Bad thing.
On a more positive note, the Pacers kicked ass tonight
Music: Lyle Lovett ~ I've Been To Memphis
So, yeah
This kid hurts all over.

Just what I have always wanted, digging holes, mowing grass, putting big boxes o' crap full of food away at work after the surly truck man brings them in. You have no idea how much fun it has been.
Tomorrow will, theoretically, be a good day. At lest, after two. No more working for Gale after two tomorrow!
Gale spake in the third person for 3 consecutive hours this afternoon. Gale was driving many a person insane!
Go Gale!
Whee!
Music: Lyle Lovett ~ L.A. County
There is a small part of me that wonders if this inspired the bit in Kill Bill with the wedding...
L.A. County ~ Lyle Lovett
She left Dallas for California
With an old friend by her side
Well he did not say much
But one year later
He'd ask her to be his wife
And the lights of L.A. County
Look like diamonds in the sky
When you're driving through the hours
With an old friend at your side
One year later I left Houston
With an old friend by my side
Well it did not say much
But it was a beauty
Of a coal black .45
And the lights of L.A. County
Look like diamonds in the sky
When you're driving through the hours
With an old friend at your side
So I drove on all the day long
And I drove on through the night
And I thought of her a'waiting
For to be his blushing bride
And the lights of L.A. County
They looked like diamonds in the sky
As I drove into the valley
With my old friend at my side
And as she stood there at the altar
All dressed in her gown of white
Her face was bright as stars a'shining
Like I'd dreamed of all my life
And they kissed each other
And they turned around
And they saw me standing in the aisle
Well I did not say much
I just stood there watching
As that .45 told them goodbye
And the lights of L.A. County
Look like diamonds in the sky
When you're kneeling at the altar
With an old friend at your side
And the lights of L.A. County
Are a mighty pretty sight
When you're kneeling at the altar
With an old friend at your side
Queer.
I could not help myself.
The word just looks strange.
Anyway, for those of you who are either wondering, or concerned, this kid works 7-2 on the 29th o'May.
So, that does, I guess, mean (Annie, this means you) at least drop by for a few moments to your little party thing.
Are you kids staying the night, or going back right after?
I have just reached the end of a series of startling revelations
1 - 42 is the answer
2 - My rampant apathy towards life, the universe, and everything is really not helping matters
3 - No one else feels like saying or doing anything of any use whatsoever right now
4 - I am going to do something similar
5 - I am going to go plug my phone in, so it can have some power for the first time in 3 days
6 - I am going to go clean my room up a bit
7 - Goodnight
Music: Johnny Cash (More likely CW McCall) - Convoy
Overhead the albatross
Hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
An echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine.
And no one called us to the land
And no one knows the where's or why's.
Something stirs and something tries
Starts to climb toward the light.
Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me.
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand
The best I can.
And no one called us to the land
And no one crosses there alive.
No one speaks and no one tries
No one flies around the sun....
Almost everyday you fall
Upon my waking eyes,
Inviting and inciting me
To rise.
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning.
And no one sings me lullabyes
And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky....
Music: The Guess Who - American Woman
So. Peoples have been telling me about this TV show for a while now. Apparently something happens, people sing, then people vote for said singers. The loser singers go off and get all sad and depressed and hold grudges against society for most of the rest of eternity, while the not quite so loserific singers go on to enjoy about 9 seconds of stardom before fading into obscurity.
Really now, that's just what we need. A show that shoves alleged "talent" in our faces and says "vote, becuase the winner is going to be the next pop-culture icon!"
Honestly.
Do your votes actually matter?
Or do you just wind up with a british asshole telling you that you can not sing for anything?
Either way, this is what passes for entertainment anymore?
My next issue is this:
Why must it be televised and, in comparison to the standard way, be instantaneous? The standard way involves finding some people who have similar interests to you, and making some sort of arrangement called a "band." After that, you practice to figure out where you all stand from a musical stance. The next logical step would be to write some original "songs" that you would then practice until you get to a point where you are happy with the way things are looking.
Now comes the point where we find out if you have any talent or not.
You actually perform at clubs or concerts or something similar. You then get a small fanbase going. Once you get to a point where you are generating some sort of revenue, you might go and make an album that you would pay to have produced and stuff out of said income.
Said album would then start to generate a profit if you were popular and talented and enough people got word. After that, you might just get famous. Especially if you have a good record company backing you.
Not this bullhooey that they have going on on the TV anymore.
Come on now people!
While it may be fun to live vicariously through the actions of others, this is just pathetic. They have been doing this show for a few years now, and the only thing I have heard about anything from anyone was some loser recently. Where is he now? Obscurity, or fading fast. I neither know or care.
Anyway, I think I will stop here. I can go on for a very long time about this sort of thing.
Goodnight Sweet Readers, And A Flight Of Angels To Sing Thee To Thy Rest
-Gale
well, off to design a time machine so i can get to bed a couple of hours ago.
goodnight
oh yeah, losing it
no doubts about it.
i just made a comment about something totally random.
this is the image i linked to in said comment.
if spontaneous acts of rememberation (yes, i know i just made the word up) pertaining to someone like super dave osborne still leave me as "sane," then there is indeed something wrong with the world in general.
cheerio!
two things-
one (1) - I feel bad for my sick kitten friend.
two (2) - I think I shall go mad.
*Removes right sock and attaches it to left ear via paperclip.
WHEEEEE!!!
Madness reigns supreme once again!
With a purple umbrella and a fifty cent hat,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
Missus cool rides out in her aged Cadillac.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
*Come on, babe on the round about, ride on the merry-go-round,
We all know what your name is, so you better lay your money down.
Alimony, alimony payin' your bills,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
When your conscience hits, you knock it back with pills.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
* Chorus
Tellin' tall tales of how it used to be.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
With the butler and the maid and the servants three.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
Nobody hears a single word you say.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
But you keep on talkin' till your dyin' day.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
* Chorus
Livin', Lovin', She's just a woman.
Bet you all thought I stopped caring about this thing.
You were right!
hahahahaha!
It's done.
It is over.
I have finally finished that which I have been doing for so long.
This is the end.
Goodbye.

Hey lady--you got the love I need
Maybe more than enough.
Oh Darling... walk a while with me
You've got so much...
Many have I loved - Many times been bitten
Many times I've gazed along the open road.
Many times I've lied - Many times I've listened
Many times I've wondered how much there is to know.
Many dreams come true and some have silver linings
I live for my dream and a pocketful of gold.
Mellow is the man who knows what he's been missing
Many many men can't see the open road.
Many is a word that only leaves you guessing
Guessing 'bout a thing you really ought to know, ooh!
You really ought to know...
Music: Silence
My friend did not show up at work tongiht.
I was sad, but I also understand.
Her family (mostly her good for nothing sister) seems to have some sort of monopoly over her. Poor kid. She can't do anything she wants to do because her sister is dragging her along everywhere to everything.
Or so I have been led to believe...
I don't belive I have mentioned my friend who is in the Army too much around here.
I was going to go on and on about her, but I realized I have not seen her for just under 11 months, spoken to her for just over 10 months, or heard from her period for 8 months.
Rumor has it, I will get to see her tomorrow, so I will elaborate upon it further then.
I just hope everything winds up being just as it was.
If so, you will get one very happy Gale. Something you have really not gotten to see around the LJ.
Read through the DL one, I think there is some happiness in that, but don't hold me to it.
Couple of other things tonight--
I have not been getting my Fridays off, therefore, I am in lots of pain from not having the day to rest after unloading the truck at work.
Contributes to the "Gale is cranky and in pain for like 4 days as opposed to 1 day where Gale can mull about in bed most of said day" category
Next thing--
That made no sense whatsoever
Last thing--
