margaretam replied to your post: Just had a little chit chat with Mr. Vernon. Super…
you’re gradually meeting the whole family!
Haha, I know, right? Except I’m not sure when or how I would go about meeting their parents… ha.
I talked to him again afterwards to inquire about if he/Jagjaguwar/any of their sister labels had any connections in Chicago other than their booking...

Oh dear. Opener (not sure who it is- it’s either Total Fucking Blood or Marijuana Deathsquads) is straight up screamo. This is an awful opener. Someone get me out of here… I usually have ear plugs with me at shows but don’t use them. Tonight I forgot them and definitely could have used them. Goodness gracious.

movementandlocation answered your question: question
Does gimp use layers? I can send you approximate directions I think. You just want to sort of collage them all together right?
If you have directions already, you can, I’d love that! But don’t go to the trouble if you’d have to write it all down for me.

What’s an easy way to just plop a couple photos on one layout to place as my background? I posted the photos I want to put on it earlier, but realized it’s more difficult than I thought to just make a stupid background with multiple photos. I don’t have photoshop, but I do have iphoto and gimp…anyone know how I could put all the photos together? Doesn’t have to be...

Bon Iver: And I told you to be patient, and I told you to be fine. I told you to be balanced, and I told you to be kind, but now all your love is wasted. And then who the hell was I?
Death Cab: So one last touch and then you'll go and we'll pretend that it meant something so much more. But it was vile, and it was cheap and you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me. Yeah, you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
Radiohead: But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling if I just turn and run. And it wears me out... It wears me out. If I could be who you wanted, if I could be who you wanted all the time... all the time.
Brand New: You are calm and reposed, let your beauty unfold. Pale white like the skin stretched over your bones, spring keeps you ever close. You are secondhand smoke, you are so fragile and thin standing trial for your sins. Holding onto yourself the best you can. You are the smell before rain, you are the blood in my veins.
Nicki Minaj: You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, yeah you a you a stupid hoe.You a stupid hoe you a you a stupid hoe. You stupid stupid, you a stupid hoe
my productivity is astounding right now.

Realization of the day and a couple other...
life
I don’t like to be corrected, reprimanded or made fun of in front of others.
I don’t think anyone does, but for whatever reason, today some stuff really stung.
I want to be a person with integrity and someone others trust. When I see people not being this way it is a reminder to always be conscious of how I am acting and what I am saying to people and what I say about people....

The Perils of Finding Pipe Tobacco: A Story.
As I rode my bike home tonight in the cool, yet comfortable 50 degree night air, I thought to myself, “It would be an excellent night to smoke a cigarillo!”. Then I thought to myself, “No! ya know what would be better? Smoking my pipe!” I realized I had not yet smoked the pipe I acquired recently, so I got home, hopped in the car, and went on a hunt for pipe tobacco at...

First text of the day...
Was a good one…from one of my brothers: ”Hey sister Katie. How are.things? I was just listening to my brightest diamond …real good.”
A couple weeks ago he asked which MBD album I would suggest buying randomly and I said if he wanted something darker, listen to A Thousand Shark’s Teeth, but if he wanted something brighter and orchestral, get All Things Will Unwind...

Tonight, I got to hang out with two very, very good friends who were in town from school for the weekend. It’s weird how you can forget how nice it is to hang out with some of your best pals.
It’s easy to forget what I’m missing when I’m away from people. Which is probably okay, or else I’d miss those things way too much.
