Another Halo song. Huh. It's supposedly a prayer for death, though less awesome than "Deus Meus" (Oh benedicus deus meus...) There are some good artists out there. Wish I could get some of these on my iPod.
A couple videos I found while browsing
baxil's flist.
This is a demo of something or other. Awesome blippy music starts at about one minute in. I like!
An incredibly trippy song about love. Using lollipops. This is good too.
So. Yesterday morning my brother left to take the bus with the rest of the marching band. I think they're in Florida by now, but I don't know. I was taken back to college yesterday evening, and this morning my parents, my sister, and my adoptive sister got on the plane. Disneyworld... *sigh*
Anyway, I spent about five hours today on a ceramics project. Last week, I threw the cylinders for the body and the neck, and I threw the bowl for the base. Today, I did everything else. Connecting, making a head, the rolled-flat membrane for the wings, the arms and fingers of the wings, the wing-thumbs, eyes and ears and horns for the head, as well as lips and nostrils. Arms, with palms, with fingers, a tail, the vent, digigrade legs with toes. Makes it sound simple, hey? It(she) lies on her back with one wing folded casually over her body, head oriented upwards at an angle, pointing with one hand, one leg crossed over the other. She had better not break. I will cry.
Worked on it from just after lunch until dinner - so yeah, five hours or therabouts. Worked on it till my fingers were rubbed sore and wrinkly.
Now my neck aches, and my right shoulder. The batteries in my mouse died. I'm going to bed.
