Er... yeah.

zoe_chan made an icon of my RENT base and I LOVE it and TOTALLY stole it and now it is my precious and I am happy. There was squeeage.

And I am writing and there is SUCH JOY in my world at that. It's been a while.

I found a shirt I bought at Disneyland when we went in 2003, and wore it today. Now, Mom and I both bought different shirts that feature one of Snow White's dwarfs... Grumpy. The joke is that by wearing the Grumpy shirt, we are not, ourselves, Grumpy.

Yeah, not as such. I was SUCH a grump today. God.

I was miserable and unhappy and grouchy and oh, in a right NASTY mood. And God help me if I can't find Anthony Rapp's cd SOMEWHERE.

Damn Borders. I special ordered it before Christmas, and we were there today so I checked to see if they could tell me anything... and the guy says "Oh, well, apparently the manufacturer doesn't have any so it's going to be 2 to 3 months."

Well, gee, thanks for TELLING ME, considerate MORONS. ::coughs::

Now, as I worked at Waldenbooks (part of Borders), I feel I can be angry and annoyed with them about this. Because god-damn-it, making phone calls does not take that much time, and I always LOVED voice mail/machines. Sigh.

And, ooo!!! Anthony Rapp? Wrote a book!! About RENT and Jon Larson and it's a *memoir*!!!! And it comes out February 6th and I WANTS IT!!!! And Jon Larson's dad gave it a good review. I blame Amazon. Where I went to look for the cd, which it *says* ships in 24 hours. Uh huh.

::cough::

Right.

AND SQUEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ANTHONY RAPP ON iTUNES!! $9.99 for the cd, which is less than anywhere else I've seen it and SO GETTING IT RIGHT NOW. DOOOOOODE!!!!!

Oh, I just made my night. I totally spent all day running from music store to music store looking for this, and have you ever searched Bullmoose Music for an obscure cd? HEADACHE. And what's this, right here in iTunes? ::sigh::

And, oh, the news is doing their yearly tribute to the people who have died this year, and ACK, I'm crying now. Gah. Sobering, because then you think about it... and how many people died who didn't make it on the news tonight? ::sigh::

Also, I have the movie soundtrack, right? Now, we all know I'm obsessed. This marks the 3rd RENT cd I have. Counting the original broadway as 1. (Because someone gave me the highlights cd back before CD burning was a possibility and that way I could have 1 cd instead of switching... and yes, that explanation is essential.)

But, god, I LOVE this. I love how their voices changed over the last 10 years... and I ADORE Tracie Thoms and Rosario Dawson... SO MUCH. I LOVE it, love it, love it.

I heart music ever so.

Now, waiting for my new Anthony Rapp music to download, then uploading to my iPod, then listening! And while waiting, listening to my RENT. ::happy sigh::

It's great how a day can change, isn't it? Totally came home thinking "fuckity fuckity fuckfuckfuck!" (which can be an entirely therapeutic word, you know. Not that it's the best thing to yell out with your mother in the passenger seat, but the drivers at the mall were assholes and idiots. Just saying.) And now? Totally happy.

Off to write! =D

And, oo, Friday night with nothing to do, nowhere to go and no movie to watch! This means Close to Home and Numb3rs!! =D And music and writing!

...maybe I'm a tad pathetic, and maybe I don't care.

On a related note, has anyone noticed my growing Anthony Rapp obsession? Good god. Roger was my favorite character for YEARS. And of course Adam Pascal has the most amazing voice ever... but Anthony Rapp? WOW, his voice. And the rest of him.

I need a therapist. This cannot be normal. And I have no clue how to tag this entry. ;) Also, the mention of PeeWee Herman in La Vie Boheme greatly amuses me.
