What? No, I knew, not your fault at all, and tickets aren't sold out. I know exactly what happened: my fucking addled brain can't handle getting up from the chair to get my credit card info without forgetting by the time I get back. the farthest I've gotten is putting my wallet in front of my computer, then gone off to bed. By the time I got up the next morning, I had forgotten why the wallet was there, and not in my pocket. It's happened like 4 times so far -- JUST WITH THIS CONCERT. Okay, I'm going to post this, get up, get my wallet, and come back, so if I don't post a follow up that I actually purchased the ticket in a couple minutes...well, that's #5 then, innit? EDIT: Purchased, thanks for the prompt! EDIT #2: In the Nursery is something else entirely, try before you buy, I'm not at all promising you'll like it, it's a completely different genre of music EDIT #3: Just finished Chilly Gonzalez, Chambers, now starting Goldfrapp and friends, soundtrack to My Summer of Love.

Um...(wanders off to make sure he didn't miss tickets going on sale/selling out)...

Oh, okay, that makes sense. Yeah, it's an art, some of it are better than others. Some of us lose more money than others, some of us are really good at spotting the right price and not losing too much when they sell it, some of us (raises hand) forget to ever sell anything.

Thanks.

How is spending too much money contrary to selling it? That makes no sense. You want to put more money into it? Makes even less sense. Sell it. Don't expect to get what you put into it, total, but get what you can and cut your losses

Did you do it, or did you send it to someone to do it? I seriously need to do that to mine.

I think she shaves her pups in summer.

:/ It appears that's the only way to obtain Undercurrents, by the Will Gregory Moog Ensemble. Not joining just for one release, but considering joining...

Finally finished Christopher Moore's Lamb -- that was fantastic, I knew it'd be good, but I didn't realize it'd be that good. Now on to the next Jim Butcher/Dresden Files novel. Hopefully by the time I finish that, there will be another October Daye...I also need some Tim Powers...

Cheers, Vicky! Glad to see the pup is working out. Did I miss it, or are you still working on a name? She has the coloring of a Little Debbie Devil Creme sandwich, what do you think of Debbie? It doesn't sound anything like Watson or Ivan (which I think should be criteria), so there's that. I realize her colouring is going to change yet again, but 'Debbie' is a general enough name...unless of course you know someone named Debbie in real life, that would be awkward. (I have the same problem with food and Skye.)

This ^ ! Half an hour? You've never been to a Cat Power show, have you.

Passion fruit sorbet, you say? Sounds divine...

Leprous >> Darkness, unless you like all that screaming. Also, cheers for playing Art of Noise -- always loved them. Me: A couple of the related bands from Leprous -- not so related: Mirrorthrone, Thou Shalt Suffer; relatedly enjoying -- Ephrat, Illusion Suite, Myrath, Peccatum (related? enjoying!)

Yay pickles!

Goddamn! (looks at expensive HDMI cable from same company, regrets) Meanwhile, slow forum is slow:

Condolences, Steve. I think you chose a wonderful spot. Sure, the grief hits hard now, but you need to grieve, don't avoid it. I slept with my senior, Luvbug, so for weeks if not months after she passed away, I was painfully reminded of her absence every time I went to bed. I still miss her hard every once in a while, but I think allowing myself to grieve fully made the process all the more cathartic.

"......the prince of Wales over his convalescence." Whut?

No worries! I suspect I am alone on a lot of things, and I am alright with that. Did you ever listen to In the Nursery's Hindle Wakes -- that one just puzzles me. I have no idea what is that appeals to me so much about that album, but it just stands out in a multiple decades long career of two brothers as far and away their best album.

I still have fucking Leprous stuck on infinite repeat. Triumphant better be the next single, I have it in my playlist twice.

Former After the Burial guitarist Justin Lowe found under bridge, apparently having jumped from it. If you're familiar with his departure from the band, you'll understand how tragic this is, whether or not you even care who AtB are. No-one deserves to go out feeling like that. Fuck mental illness.

Aw, man, even Kevin...er...Dr. Gilmore pipes up to tell me to buy separately? Man... No, seriously, thanks for the info on IPv6...

(whistles all mock innocently and nonchalantly)

Is it because you haven't vested yet?
