♠Zombie Slaying and Alien Hunting 101♠
The last two books I read (Inherent Vice and Grasshopper Jungle) were stupid and funny and left me with no feelings about anything but I'm thirty pages into Raising Stony Mayhall and I have FEELINGS. HELP.
Also I started organizing my bookshelves today.... What is wrong with me.
I have a whole shelf on my largest shelf that's just notebooks and random shit I haven't organized since we moved into the new house 2015.
The shelf I keep my comics/manga/graphic novels on it OUT of control >.>Goal is to get that whole little shelf reorganized tomorrow and do the big one, top to bottom, on Thursday.
Today I just kinda moved stuff around, dusted and boxed up all the books and random stuff to take to the secondhand on Friday.
Need to do my closet this weekend, too. If there's anything in there I haven't touched since the move it's gone.
Doug, upon seeing a picture of my closet: It's so tiny! Do you even fit?
I still think that was a punny, not funny thing to say, but it still makes me laugh.
Valerian comes to my theater on Friday! :D
... I think I've watched too many movies this year.
Is that gonna stop me from continuing to fangirl over Valerian, Atomic Blonde, Thor: Ragnarok and- dun duh da duh da- The Last Jedi?Hell.
NO.
fave movies of the year (so far):Logan.
Kong: Skull Island.
King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.
Guardians Of The Galaxy vol. 2
Wonder Woman.
Okay so Raising Stony Mayhall is giving me feels. I thought it was about killing zombies but...Okay it's not Cell, so much as it's Warm Bodies, and then it's kinda BOTH and I'm just...
Review for Grasshopper Jungle. Gonna do that, maybe read some more, watch some Invader Zim and go to sleep.

This is unfuckingbelievable.
On what would've been Chris Cornell's birthday.The same way he killed himself.
I never even thought about who Chris was leaving behind in music.
This is why killing yourself is NEVER the answer. EVER. You leave a wreck of people behind you who might lose who THEY feel they're living for.
I'm sorry either of them felt that way and i am so sorry to everyone they left behind, but, can we please help the cycle end here?
I was already depressed when i remembered it was Chris Cornell's birthday. Fuck all of this.

I know, brother.
Never think twice with me, either, okay? I've got you.
I updated Word To The Wise for the first time since Chris Cornell died.I wrote a long messy post I had to edit like eight times.
Everyone please read it.
I hated to bring up A because honestly we aren't even friends anymore but he really is a success story.
*sigh*Welp. My room still needs sweeping and bookshelf-organizing.
So. Since I don't really feel like doing my review for Grasshopper Jungle (I'll do it tomorrow) I'mma do that.
My email notifs are always on, y'all.
Okay so Chester was the godfather of one of Chris's younger children. So yeah. They were close. That's definitely why it was today.
You can't throw a stone in rock music without hitting somebody effected by Chris Cornell. Corey Taylor, Taylor Momsen, Dave Grohl, Eddie Vedder, even that asshole Bono.

So my fortune cookie thingy was about writing.Is this a sign that I've been worrying too much about my urban fantasy story and IICR, and that I should take a break and go back to fanfic?
I'm obviously joking. It's a fucking cookie.
But...
I HAVE gotten some great ideas for some DF fic since I finished Skin Game.
We'll see.
Been listening to a lot of Black Label Society. Forgot how much i liked them. In This River is SUPER mellow so i think that's been good for me.
It's also kinda depressing though.
I don't know how I got this way, I know that it's not right.
All my Linkin Park is on that crappy little mp3 player i don't even use anymore. I should charge it and listen to that stuff while i draw tonight.
I did get to practice singing while crying with Numb last night.I did the same thing with Say Hello 2 Heaven after Chris Cornell died. Feels like exploited their deaths but it's something a singer should be able to do. Ozzy Ozbourne can sing and cry without his voice breaking, and so can James Hetfield.
My brother called last night and we kinda sang half of In The End.That song was pretty huge when Bart was my age and he loves it.
He is SO fucking tone deaf...
Wait that's wrong. He was younger than me when that was new.It was 2001, wasn't it? He was like nine.
He loved Linkin Park when he was in high school, though.I learned to love their music (also Godsmack and ICP) from him.
Those three bands are the only things we have in common besides Finding Nemo and Star Wars.
Corey Taylor and Jonothan Davis crying while trying to perform a few hours after their friend hanged himself.
Oh crap my view count is 321.Like 3, 2, 1.
Oh damn it now it's gonna go to like 329 in two days >.>
Anywho. I wrote most of my review for Grasshopper Jungle but then I had to run so I saved it. May post this evening, but maybe tomorrow. Trying to finish another book.
Also planning on working on OC and fanart tonight.I'm working on a Dresden Files one-shot set after Ghost Story, and one set after Skin Game.
Hoping that'll help get the writer's mojo back.
Just gotta keep my head up.
I'm real excited about the post-Ghost Story one-shot though. It's about halfway done :)
New pic/brackitt name tomorrow. Hopefully some good stuff happening on Instagram but I'm not making any promises.
Oh thank god. page flip.
