Music Monday Steampunk Opera

New Albion 1
From The Dolls Of  New Albion, A Steampunk Opera

Sorry I've been away, it's been a hectic couple of weeks
Here is Music Monday

I found the piece on a search for steampunk music.  The art work for the album cover caught my attention.  I found the music fun to listen, and the lyrics gave a description of a world that might be interesting to visit.

Science Sunday: Galapagos

Very cool video about Google, Google Street view, and the Galapagos Islands.
And here are the Treks.

The Galapagos Islands are well known as the place where Darwin began his theory of evolution by way of natural selection.

And while we're at it here are the Ghost's of Google Street View.  An artist named Paolo Cirio goes to places and paints the people captured in Google street view where they were seen.

This is my first Science Sunday post.  I'm thinking about ways to keep me engaged in writing and for some reason Alliteration days came to mind.  So far I've got Music Mondays which can also switch to Mustard Mondays, since I like mustard. I'm avoiding Melancholy Mondays.  And Woozel Wednesdays or Heffalump Humpday.  I may post about Winne the Pooh, Elephants or Weasels.

If anyone has any other alliteration day ideas let me know

And once more unto the breach...

I am going to try this again.  I have never been good about keeping up with things.  I am, however, endeavoring to teach myself some new tricks.

So updates:
I am engaged to Spiderman.
I fell at work and am dealing with bureaucracy of the insurance system.
My main group of friends has fallen apart.
Spiderman is out of state, and we're both very sad about it.
I am taking a research writing class at the college.

Long story short my life has been very hectic lately.

I am thinking about using this page to work on my writing skills, so if you see grammatical errors, and spelling errors I welcome the help.

And I some of my posts may not be as light hearted as they used to be.  I think I need a cathartic release that Saints Row the Third can't provide.

A little update

Granted I'm pretty sure no one really reads this...
Anywho...
I'm down to one fish, Spook, he has out lived everyone, Laddy-o, he died last month; Daddy-o, died a while ago; Scion, committed suicide (see previous posts); and Dante, he died around my birthday, I was kind of sad about that, but he lived a good life.  Had a 'Baker Street Gang' for a little while.  Sherlock, John, Mycroft, Lestrade/Moriarty.  Turns out Lestrade was less Lestrade and more Moriarty, he ate the other fish...
I had a pigeon for about a week.  My Boyfriend and I rescued the bird, we still aren't sure what sex it was.  It was a pretty looking bird though.  It had feathers on the bottom of its legs, but not tiny feathers they were as long as my fingers.  Apparently he was a fancy pigeon (real term) at least according to wiki, and everyone knows that everything on wiki it true XP
Any way, as we were deciding whether or not to keep the pigeon it started flying around my room then into my window, we decided that we might want to let the bird go.  This resulted in my boyfriend and I chasing the bird around the grounds trying to 'convince' the bird to either let us catch it again or at least sit in a bloody tree.  Last we saw of it it was sitting on a wall until it was chased away by two smaller birds, I don'[t have much faith of that bird living a long life...
And currently I have a Jack Russel Terrier at my feet.  His name is Charlie.  I'm house sitting him for my conductor while he's on vacation.  Sweet dog, total brat at times.  I didn't even know the dog was trained until my mother dropped by to visit.  Walking him is much easier now.  And, he is a world class beggar.  I have had quiet a few conversations with him while walking him.  He is also very fond of the pillow from his kennel, very fond of it.
And that would be everything from the animal angle of my life.
Work is work and hasn't really changed.
In fact much of my life really hasn't changed
You may have noticed, however, the use of the term boyfriend.
Yes, I have a new boyfriend.  We've been together for almost two months now.  It's really great.  I always smile when I'm with him, even if I had been in a bad mood before he showed up.  He just makes me happy, even if I just talk with him on the phone.  And his name?  Spiderman
Not really, but he does really like Spiderman, and I wouldn't actually release is name online, just a photo
XD
Yes that is him in the jacket, on the Batmobile
Well, I've got eggs a hard boilin'
I'll probably write more tomorrow
I'm making my mom's milk potato soup tomorrow
Bye bye!

Missing Fish update

We found Scions body...
Or what was left.
It was kinda turned into fish jerky
His body was in one of the boxes that I needed to go through, found his fin first then the rest of him...
Surprisingly it didn't smell funny, or I think I would have found it sooner.
Boys are stupid...

It's been a while...

Hello hello
I'm back!

*looks around*

*crickets chirp*

Yep, just as I left it.

Life has been... busy.

Work is the same and school seems to be getting better, I've managed to get A's on the first two psychology exams.

Room's been rearranged, again.

God my life is boring...

I feel like Douglas and Martin flying over Russia

This, by the way, is a brilliant series to listen to.
Ok, I suppose that that's all for now, I'm probably going to post more.  Especially now that my life is not consumed by the internship or increasingly exhausting chorus class...

Up Next...

Not much to report...
Still haven't found Scion's body and there is no fishy smell in my room.  So, I have no idea what happened to that fish.

No other fish have died, which is a nice thing.  I feel bad when they die... Usually...

Had a tooth ripped out.  Wisdom.  Figured I'd get it out while I was covered for dental.

Almost done with my room.
Moving things around and getting rid of things.  Mostly getting rid of things really.

Yep life is horribly boring right now.  Except for the crazy people below.

Think I'll enjoy the peace for now.

Wow this is a really boring post isn't it...
