walking on the beaches, looking at the peaches

Things I have gotten totally pumped about within the last few hours, end to end, causing me to kind of want to tell everyone about it despite being surrounded by squares:

• Pose Drawing!!!! I've been doing 90-second stints, and am already feeling a lot more confident in my grasp of anatomy. Especially drawing heads with the egg-shape method.
• The following songs:
  - Ratatat - "Alps"
  - Queen - "I Want to Break Free"
  - The Everly Brothers - "Cathy's Clown"
  - Homestuck - "Crystamanthequins" and "Three In The Morning (RJ's I Can Barely Sleep In This Casino Mix)"
• David Lynch's Blue Velvet (feat. Kyle MacLachlan. Jegus.)

• Getting a new computer through a combination of Brock's enduring generosity and forking some cash over to the fine fellows at Newegg. I WILL DRAW SO MANY THINGS ON MY NEW LARGE MONITOR SCREEN! Note: the last time I acquired a new computer was in 2004, hopy shit.

Lately my favorite activity at work has been not doing work, because there is none to do. That's fine with me. I just wish bringing in my Wacom tablet was acceptable, to say nothing of potentially functional with these shit computers.

OKAY PEACE EVERYONE

who ordered a ukelele in the snow?

i can't stop listening to this one

Brock claims #6 is the best, but I say that #4 is tremendous. The Sonia Sotomayor segment alone is fantastic, but there are gem lyrics studded throughout this entire song. I kind of like how it skips around through different musical themes for the separate news topics, rather than the style of most of the other Auto-Tune the News installments, which stitch everything into a continuous melody.

This one goes out to the Serbians
And also the ladies
But mostly the Serbians
