the Dalaverse

Just got back from driving for an hour and a half. No, really. First I went all the way down 5 South till I got to Point Lookout. Then I turned around at the vistors' center and headed north, don't know how many miles, I was gonna go until it connected to 235 but I wasn't sure if I would recognize it. Then I drove back south again, and turned around shortly after I passed Historic St. Mary's because I decided I wanted to go in, then just circled the parking lot because I didn't have my ID on me. Then I went south again and stopped at the Confederate cemetary. It's not a real cemetary, just a monument to mark where the bodies lay before they returned them to families. Did you know Pt. Lookout was a prisoner of war camp? I sure as hell didn't. Anyway, the monument -- monuments really, the big one was given by the nation and the small by the state, they were very simple and pretty and connected me to D.C. a bit. Then I turned around and came home. Got through my Indigo Girls CD twice.

It's amazing what a long drive with good music does for me. I'm so relaxed and content right now. I need to remember the effects driving has on me. If I had a horse, I'd go riding when I was stressed or unhappy, but now I think I'll just go driving.

So now I've skipped each class (except Sociology) once. That's nice and rounded, don't you think?

Should be able to last the rest of the week now. Really, really hope Katherine decides to come home, because then I get in an extra hour or so of driving.

I have a new goal: to obtain every version of the Rolling Stones' "Wild Horses" ever recorded.

I love the determined fox icon, can you tell?

God-soft-rock.

Shoot me, please. Just give me one right in the brain.

Seriously.

I. Am going. To die.

It would be so incredibly rude if I got up to get my discman right now.

Gahhhh. My ears are bleeeeeeding.

When this is over I am going to BLAST rock music.

Hmmm. I'll start out with "Gimme Shelter" which I've just downloaded, then I'll move on to the handful of Black Sabbath/Ozzy songs in my possession, then...the Doors...Steppenwolf...Jimi Hendrix, I need some scorching guitarwork, man...vintage Derek and the Dominoes/Cream Clapton...and rounding it out with Led Zeppelin.

Oh Zep, hallelujah, I want to see your faaaaace! By your grace I am saaaaaved! You are Lord Zep Almighty! You are holy holy holy! I cry out to you, worthy is the Led, worthy is the Ledddddd.

Hey, this almost makes it bearable. I swear those are actual (bastardized, naturally) lyrics. Gives me chillls, in a wrong dirty way -- and not in a good, sexual wrong dirty way.

Our Led, is an awesome Led we praise, in heaven above (hey, John Bonham's dead, it counts), our Led is an awesome Leeeeeeddddddd!

Yeah, Led sounds better than Zep in this usage.

I'm entertaining myself, shut up!

More Led, more Led, more of Led in my life. And I will worship Led, with all of my life (repeat three times), they are my Led. More Led, more Led, more of Led in my life.

Oh god. The same exact lyrics get repeated over and over about eighty-four thousand times, but I'll be damned if I'm going to copy it all over. I'm damned anyway!

The violins they use in the song are going to commit suicide any minute now from such blatant misuse.

Oh god.

And I will open up my heart, touch me in the deepest part.

*Lorelai voice* DIRTY!

That's right up there with that wrong book title I saw in CVS once -- I think I posted about it, I'll go find it...there it is! Jesus Wants All of Me. Scary as hell, man.

Okay, this music's much better, chick with a pretty voice. I'll stop bitching and mocking. Because I'm not mocking the religion, I'm mocking the shitty music. Shitty music is very threatening to me. It is, in fact, about the most intimidating thing you can do to me. It's the equivalent of going up to a human and said "Blood...blood...blood."

Yeah, I lifted that wholesale from Douglas Adams. Do you know where your towel is?

I'm trying to write action. This is never good.

I'm just going to gloss over the really difficult parts; I can always come back to them later. Still, it's annoying.

FREEBIRD.

::boogies down::

No more TWoP tonight! Must write for at least the next 30 minutes!

*grrrrrr*

That was the sound of Determined!Fox growling at me. I shall hop to it immediately ::salutes::
