Blah Day

Okay so it's overcast again and again I have no clue what to write about. It's a very blah day. There was a little excitement an hour or so ago about stupid people posting stupid stuff to my blog that caused me to put everyone on moderation (sorry about that, but them's the breaks).

Dark Diva Reviews: Eris

This one slipped past me, but I'm sure happy to see it. :D

Music Whim

I have eclectic music tastes. People ask me what I like to listen to and I usually can't answer simply because it depends on my mood.

Here's a smattering of what has caught my attention lately though.

This is the theme song for one of my characters in a WIP about werewolves:



This the poor man's theme song and my giggle song:
