things and a realization
Feb. 1st, 2004 08:07 pmThing one: I have discovered a new male balladeer. Casey Stratton. He has a falsetto that is pure and creamy. I swear he's the bastard love child of Duncan Sheik and Jason Mraz. With shades of Tracy Chapman. I have listened to his discthree times today. Wonderful
Thing two: for a staff that works in a book store, they sure don't know how to alpahabetise. I almost hurt three of our people today for being stupid. What were tey thinking? Can't they read? Arrgghh!! I retrained them on shelving and merching the Multimedia sections. Still want to hurt them.
Thing three: taxes done and sent. Whoo hoo!!
Realization: I am a fandom leech. It came to me today as I was woring in the DVD Performance section (damn, we have a lot of Pik Floyd DVDs) that I don't really contribute anything to the fandom as awhole. I don't write (the things I've tried have sucked hard core, still plugging away, have little faith), I don't subscribeto cable TV or to any magazines and don't actually listen to the radio, so I don't get news to share, I have no Photoshopping/Paint Shop skills (although I'm working on those) to make wallpapers and icons, and I don't actually give any sort of constructive feedback (*guh* good, more, is not constructive).
So, I have decided I need to do something for the fandom, shall think on this and see what I can come up with.
Random thing: Wallpaper Changer is a wonderful thing, it cycles through my wallpapers. Every hour I get a new one. JC, Howie, Lance, Hal Sparks, Dom, Seth Green. All pretty. Still need a good Orlando one. And Elijah. And Xander. Rupert Graces, too.
Hell, maybe I'll work on the Photoshopping and make more wallpapers.
