The boys are amazing. The crowd was great and very into it with much singing. The screaming got a bit excessive towards the end, especially when the boys were gone and we were trying to get out. The venue was awesome, I swear everyone should have been able to see somehow with the elevated spots and the monitors. Gustav's hair's getting a bit long and good god was he going at those drums. <3 Hearing my friends reactions after were very amusing. Especially the part where they both said when Bill leaned on Tom's shoulder they were fully expecting them to kiss. Both had a thing for the twins and were shocked when I said I like Georg (Who did many sexy smirks and hair flips). This was the best view I've had of Tom and I guess I understand the attraction better. I seriously couldn't stop staring at his neck and wanting to lick off the sweat. Guh. Brigitte agreed that she'd had similar thoughts. When I told her they were about to turn 19 she cooed about wanting a younger guy. I have no pictures because they made me check my camera. They didn't make Brigitte or Brandon, oh no, just me, because I got the security guy who was completely feeling up my bag. Cost me $5 and I was annoyed, especially since where we were standing had an amazing view and plenty of room with no one pushing us. Damn it. From where we were the crowd didn't look too bad so I kind of made me wish we'd tried for the front, but oh well so maybe next time. Oh and they made us dump our water bottles, which sucked because we still had an hour and a half or more of standing inside. Both Brandon and Brigitte said they are very willing to go to another show when the guys come back (no arm twisting necessary!), so if I can find another person next time I will be keeping up my trend of dragging more people with me with every show. And Brigitte sounded excited to try for closer. By the way, the Urban Decay eye primer thing is amazing. Both Brigitte and I got samples last time we were at Sephora and we both wore it today and our eye shadows came out perfect. Annnd now I'm gonna watch THTV and pass out. Oh, in even happier news: Dad's coming home tomorrow! Mom says he still feels crappy and isn't eating everything but they have a guess at what was wrong. Current Mood:  exhausted |

According to my amazon recs, all I really want out of life is lesbian movies and Robert Munsch books.
Not so bad, I guess. |

And I let go of the dream... Saturday I turned in the keys to the apartment. I knew the move out was coming, obviously. Yuki and I talked about it on the drive back from Death Valley at the beginning of April, when I asked what kind of possibility it was. A week later he said he'd be okay with it. And the reality is that since then I've been living neither here nor there but in both places - the majority of my time at his house, the majority of my stuff at his apartment. But it didn't make sense to keep the apartment with Frank, or to keep making Yuki drive me to and from work because I wanted to make sure the car was available to Frank. And so I didn't renew the contract for housing and over the last month, I moved out my stuff - my desk, my books, my clothes, my knicknacks, my kitchen supplies. And on Saturday, my car. Frank and I said goodbye up there, before he headed off with the last load of stuff and the crew of folks who came to help him move out, so that they could drop it off and go out for lunch. He left but I didn't then. I sat in the apartment for another twenty minutes or so. It was very white and bright in the apartment, in a way it hadn't been with all of our stuff everywhere. We'd cleaned too, which I'm sure helped a bunch, but it was sitting there looking like it did that first morning, when we'd gotten our keys and walked in for the first time. It was the first time a place was mine - well, ours - and I thought we'd be there for at least two years before moving on to someplace a little larger. My first apartment (since I still considered Walker a dorm despite how nice it was) and all the dreams and hopes and expectations I'd had for it. It was more than just a place to sleep at night, it was someplace I'd worked hard to turn into a home. Standing in that empty apartment, knowing I would turn in the keys and never come back again, it came home that I really had failed at that. Those hopes and dreams are gone. Done. Will never be achieved. And I have new ones, without a doubt, ones that are beond what I would have thought possible a year ago, but that doesn't change the hurt associated with losing some of what you'd been looking for. I hadn't expected that. I hadn't expected to stand in a lonely white apartment and cry at the loss of something that never really existed anyway. But I did. I turned the keys in that afternoon, after walking out and not looking back. I'll see the building again, after all. I have new dreams now to build on - a garage door opener and keys to Yuki's place and if I'm still working on the concept of finding a home here instead of being a guest, well, Yuki's patient. He listened to me when I cried again on Saturday night and held me and asked what he could do to help me feel more at home here, since he knows what I gave up in more ways than one. I'm grateful to him for that. Today was spent moving in more stuff - the kitchen is full of piles of Tupperware and dishes that I'm not sure where to put and I continually get reminders of how loved I am here. It's wonderful, and I'm glad to finally be able to devote myself fully to this new chapter instead of living half and half with the old one - but it's still sad to close that chapter. Moving on doesn't mean forgetting. Current Mood:  indescribable |

Fanart - Panik's David/Timo and TH Bill RL sucks for various reasons but I got a couple things I can post at the moment. First we have my second Panik fanart ever, which I did way too late light night when I should have gone to bed ages before but the image wouldn't leave me alone 'til I did it even if it was sketchy. It's such a pain to find decent sized reference pictures, especially of David. I eventually found their kyte station/channel/thing and that was very helpful and amusing to watch them be dorky boys. All it needs is subtitles or me to magically understand German and it'd be perfect. ( Mmm )Second is some fanart for Majestrix's "...Makes Three". Never thought I'd do mpreg fanart, but never say never, I guess. Poor Bill. ( Om nom nom ) Current Music: Tose Proeski - Igra Bez Granica (in my head) |

Updates! * We've moved. I don't want to talk about the moving day. It was the most horrible experience I've had in the past 5 years, and I still have nightmares about it. Don't ask. * The new apartment has some minor problems, but at least this time no one's gonna shirk off the responsibility of fixing them (there are problems with one of the windows, one of the kitchen closets and the bathtub). * We would very much appreciate any and all people who'd like to help us with the unpacking, because otherwise the house-warming will only be in 6 months (like it was at the last aparmtnet)... * My foot deserves a post all on its own, but the short version is that I spent 3500~ NIS (That's like a 1000$ or so) on an ankle support thing (so that the current catastrophe will heal properly), orthopedic shoes and the expensive kind of orthopedic insoles (so that the catastrophe won't happen again). * The workplace is now attempting to allocate me a laptop so that I can work at the office with my leg up on a chair without killing my back by trying to swivel my upper body 90 degrees toward the screen/keyboard/mouse that are on my desk. They really don't want me to work from home. * I went to work today with the ankle support, and did my 9 hours by sorta moving everything around so that my upper body was only turned 30~ degrees from my lower body with my foot up on the chair thing... and my foot hurt so bloody much... even with advil... But according to the doctor, I should ignore the pain, but it really stresses me out. * My bank account is in an atrocious condition. I don't really know what to do about it, except whine rather a lot and hope that the SO's relatives will stop being such bitches and help out a little... So all in all, I'm on the mend, but in great pain. My financial situation is a mess, and so is my employment status because I don't really know if it's such a wise idea to keep coming to work considering the pain level, but at least I live in a hotel suite and I gots me some love... Bah... Still not positive. Current Mood:  apathetic |

FanArt Third chapter of A Broken Hallelujah has been posted so I can share this. Spoilers if you aren't reading. This one was interesting because it was the first time they only described the scene they wanted me to draw instead of giving me most or all of the chapter. So I got to read the chapter almost like everyone else and see if the picture fit. :) ( A Broken Hallelujah - Confess and Live, Confess and Love ) Current Mood:  creativeCurrent Music: Tose Proeski - Igra Bez Granica |

New fandoms are hard to get into. It could be shyness about meeting new people, not being able to hit the right rhythym, or it could be things like them saying women ask to be raped. Because rape is a natural consequence! Those stupid, stupid women. Or something like that. It all started when there was a secret posted about this chick ( ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) tinkerbell_hips) over her userinfo which said she had a nazi fetish and wasn't a racist, BUT... (buts never end well). Anyway. Somehow it turned into the discussion I linked above. Because it links to a secrets comm, I'm going to copy/paste what this person said. Because I need people to tell me that normal people don't think this way. When you're out showing your ENTIRE VAGINA to people.. you're asking for it. Just like the girls who get complete intoxicated and go to a party full of guys. I mean, way to make a dumb decision.
But before I get my ass ripped for saying all that! I wear some skanky numbers myself - but I know how to stay away from date rape.
&
I don't get it either. Especially when they go do it, they know what they're getting into and then afterwards they complain?? What kind of fucking logic is that?!
"I can't believe that guy was all over me when I was drunk last night. Now my junk hurts and I don't know why. boo hoo"
lintelsoups is such a charmer. It's good to know showing skin means you want to get raped. Isn't that the logic with showing your hair, too? Men can't help themselves. Anyway, in conclusion: D: |

Cognitive disconnect. I'm frustrated, tired, and PMSy. On the other hand, things are going swimmingly well. Except for the giant to-do list. But see above. I just want to go home and relax. Current Mood:  cranky |

 Kit and Aayla help me try out my new camera tripod (it's itty bitty!). It's sort of satisfying to know the blurriness isn't my shaky hands, but a simple fault of the damn camera. I may have to get something that costs more than twenty bucks. Aayla's budding alcoholism worries Kit, but what worries Aayla more is whenever they're together Death Cab For Cutie pops up on my winamp. 'I will follow you into the dark' which I do not think really fits, but whatever, Winamp. I need exciting music. I think their song would be something kind of exciting, instead of sweet and sorta sad, is what I'm saying. So of course while I'm writing this, the winamp offers 'Be My Yoko Ono'. Wth, man. Wth. It sort of pleases and amuses me that Kit's horrible balance and Aayla's own problems sort of cancel eachother out when I pose them together. I wish my cousin would stop playing GTA4 in the background. I may have to kill him. FINAL NEWS: MY RAYGUN ARRIVED IN THE MAIL. It was sent to my sister's house because UPS thinks I don't exist. And she decided to, for some reason, walk it to me several blocks. In the rain. The box was huge too, because they packed it in three. And heavy. I bought her supper. :Di am so happy |

The Moon & The Melodies Great night! The crowd waxed and waned but we had people dancing all the way until the end. Not to be crass, but financially it was a lot more successful than most of our previous events. Granted, this one cost almost nothing, but still we both walked away with a decent amount. People were incredibly gracious to us; thanking us profusely as they left. That's a pretty awesome feeling. Knowing that even if you don't get Bootie-sized crowds, the people that do come are there because they genuinely love the kind of music we're playing. Yet again, people came to the event on the strength of the "Dancing Ghosts" name. It seems we are something of a brand. We have groupies! Catalyst's owner, Matt, again asked us if we'd be back next month. Strange as it sounds after two successive, er, successes, I kinda want Dancing Ghosts to take a break. It was never meant to be a monthly thing, it's supposed to be a special event. Oh well, it's hard to say no when they seem so pleased...Thanks to everyone who came out! Anyway, here's what we played; ( Dancing Ghosts Present The Moon and the Melodies ) |

I think a single mosquito just went to town sampling 10 spots on my one leg. (The other leg got about 5, it looks like.) I noticed and killed the bugger when he was going for number 11 but my legs were already itching and I'm annoyed. I'd lasted the whole summer with only a couple and now my legs are covered in one night! Grrrrr. Current Mood:  itchy |
