HUGE update.

So, i haven't posted on here since...AUGUST?

O_o

my bad.

Well... to bring you up to date,

i have a wonderful boyfriend now. His name is Daniel. he is my missing puzzle piece. 
into art, music, fashion (he is going to start making his own t-shirts), design, and literature. he's cultured and an incredible writer. he amazes me constantly. 

quite a catch. 
speaking of CATCH... 

What a Catch, Donnie-

i just got the new Fall Out Boy cd, last week. I think i probably have listened to it AT LEAST 30 times. in fact, i'm listening to it now. Patrick Vaughn Stump= probably the best songwriter of the year. his melodies on this album are UNBELIEVABLE. his range is different now too. and they seem to be getting back to their roots. i've noticed more pop punk influence/heavier riffs, and Andy's drumming definitely has an edge to it that was nowhere to be found on Infinity on High. Pete's lyrics are better than EVER. puns that play with your perception of the meaning. phrases that get stuck in your head. lines you wish you wrote. i could write a book just inspired by his lyrics. and Joe's guitar skills have built up to some really neat little tricks. listen closely.  
just. listen. 
because i think you'll hear some familiar voices as well. Brendon Urie, Debbie Harry (BLONDIE...yes you heard me), Pharrell, Lil' Wayne, ELVIS COSTELLO FOR GOODNESS SAKES!!! and then of course, on "What A Catch, Donnie", a lot of Fall Out Boy's fellow labelmates and tourmates make background appearances toward the end, singing old lyrics from a wide range of FOB classics. you have to check it out. 

if you are looking to buy an album, BUY FOLIE A DEUX. 
(see that, Fall Out Boy? I'm advertising for you... ADVERTISING! now... *SignMeToDecaydance?* lawl)

thursday is christmas, can you believe it???
i sure can't. 
=p i don't much care for christmas...

it's all about material things. yeah, it's nice seeing family but i think it's more stressful than the outcome is worth. 

besides, it's a sabotage.
...it's a time of feasting. disgusting feasting. 
and i can't count the containers of cookies i've received. 

how about a little bottle of diet pills from someone?? -_- that'd be great, thanks.


oh. by the way. don't expect to see much coming from Fire At The Fairgrounds. I think i'm restarting. i have new equipment. i have a new outlook. i want to create some minimalistic/pop punk/indie stuff. 

oh, and if you've never heard of this guy. Herve This (it's french so the pronunciation is all wacky)... hes the father of Molecular Gastronomy. It's pretty much the study and creation of the most modern and innovative way of preparing AND eating food, and it revolves around SCIENCE. you really need to check it out, foodies. i promise, you'll want to go out and buy liquid nitrogen right after looking at the possibilities. so cool. 
i really want to go to one of the restaurants. 

speaking of FOOD. 

Anthony Bourdain is probably my favorite person. He's witty, adventurous, ...cranky (reaaaally cranky) but still tolerable, unlike Chef Ramsey..., outspoken (to say the least), and he knows how to make a good show: No Reservations. I've been watching it for quite a while, but now that i'm on vacation, i watch it nearly every day if i can. it comes on travel channel. cool stuff.

well, i need to get going. 

i will definitely be posting more. <3
